Kris Allen, "How Sweet It Is." Brilliant performance--very laid back, kind of Jason Mraz-y. Consistent. A definite top performance of the night.
Scott MacIntyre, "You Can't Hurry Love." I am concerned for his sanity. Thou shalt not mess with the Supremes. Only five words in, I was already thinking, "Indulgent nonsense." And then he got into it, and I was kind of digging it... except it was bland and average. "How much more can you take," indeed.
A brilliant move by Paula, giving Simon crayons and a coloring book!
Megan Corkrey, "For Once In My Life." I appreciate the uniqueness of Megan's voice, but today, she just sounded out of tune. I liked the higher notes, but she fell out on her lower ones. Baaaaaaad song choice. Badbadbad. She is going to be in trouble tonight.
Noop Dawg, "Oh Baby Baby." Very chill, slow-dancey version. Very good vocals. The crowd goes wild. This is a good week for the Dawg. Nicely done!
Michael Sarver. I missed the title of this song, but it was too big for him, and ended up showing exactly how much he is outclassed by the other singers. Have a safe flight back home, Michael.
Lil Rounds, "HeatWave." Now, this is a good performance, and a good song for her... but the reason it's good for her is that this girl does not seem capable of toning it down and doing a softer song. I think she is maybe a one-trick, or really rather a one-volume, pony.
Adam Lambert, "Tracks of my Tears." I love the Elvis look, the stripped down performance. He can sing just as well quiet as he can loud, which really speaks well for his voice. I prefer hearing his power voice, but WHOA JESUS CHRIST his vocal range is higher than mine did he really just hit that note? An amazing performance. Paula's usually on her feet, but to have Smokey Robinson get up on his feet for you? Wow.
Danny Gokey, "Get Ready." I think he forgot to do what Smokey told him to do (partially because he sped up the song, I think) but it was quite a good performance. Simon, stuff it. Not his best, but solid.
Allison Iraheta, "Papa Was A Rolling Stone." I LOVE this song. Hit the ball out of the park. Brilliant. Rivals Adam for best performance of the night. I just sat there and listened.
