Scotty: Too repititous. Annoyed by how he holds that stoopid mic. I was bored and tuned out. But that's nothing new, I usually tune him out. 
James: Brought my daughter out of her room to come listen. LOL! Holy smokes! Dude's got pipes! Hubby says, 'I would buy that album!' Almost rated up there with Adam Lambert's performance of 'Mad World' for me. Almost! 
Haley: Interesting song choice because I've heard it on the radio before and it made me think of her. She did a great job, balancing her growl and letting us hear her great, distinct sound.
Jacob: I normally like Jacob's voice, but this was just plain ole boring. I agree with Randy, we are expecting spectacular at this point, and that was a let-down.
Casey: Rough. He wasn't even hitting the notes. Expected better from him. I don't think this song showcased his style well. But who am I? Everybody else seemed to love it. LOL! I think his Casey-isms were over-done and he got a bit cocky, not being mindful of the voice, but the performing.
Stefano: Like his voice, he gave us a pretty good performance. I think the only thing he's really lacking at this point is having a style all his own. What's his niche? 
Lauren: Just a safe performance. If she will let go like the judges are asking her to do, she could blow the lid off the place. She reminds me so much of Carrie Underwood in the fact that Carrie stayed in the middle of the pack for most of the competition, then suddenly blossomed when it came down to it. Lauren has been the slow & steady singer thru all this. So far we've been weeding out the bad singers and now we're down to the best. I think she's going to shine from here on out.
Prediction for bottom 3: Scotty, Stefano, Jacob. Going home...who else? Stefano? Again? |
I would totally agree with your assessment, Mrs.
Paul has never been my favorite, wayyyy too bland, and I HATE that I can't understand half of what he's singing! He doesn't enunciate, doesn't finish words, and sings everything Rod Stewart style, but a bad karaoke Rod Stewart.
Jacob is getting old to me, Haley is ok, but not blowing the roof off, Lauren is starting to go the other way, in my opinion...she started off confident, powerful, unafraid....and now, she's climbing INTO a shell, instead of out of one.
Stefano has a very PURE voice, but seems to be putting on a show, not really feeling it.
I love Casey, he has a long and storied career ahead of him, simply because of his versatility, but I would tend to agree....he is a little too goofy at times.
The one true performer, who refuses to be changed, even by the professionals, is James......I think he'll win it all, he's already got it inside and out, in my opinion.
My prediction for bottom three: Stefano, Jacob and Scotty, going home will be Jacob, I think.
