Phillip – I seriously cannot help but smile when this guy is on stage. He picked the perfect song and it was just so natural and fun to watch. Well done!
Jessica – Last week was definitely better. This one didn’t quite show as much control and I think there was a little screeching/yelling going on. And yes, those pants are amazing.
Heejun – Oh, Heejun. That is one of my favorite love songs ever and I really, really want to like it but it’s so pitchy. The ending got better but overall, just not the night for you.
Elise – I was surprised how much I lived this song for her. That raspy part of her voice I love really shined through. Good to see her positive tonight!
Deandre – At first I looked at Scott and said He’s not singing that right. But by the end I thought he had a handle on it better and really, I still believe he has a beautiful voice. He just looked like someone was beating that song out of him for most of it.
Shannon – Oh boy. Breathing was not the issue with this. She should have worked on the notes first. Ouch. Some of those hurt. How did the judges not hear that?
Colton – Daughtry! Great advice to sing something people know. I had no idea what this song was but I kind of felt like I may be listening to an original Colton song. (ah! I typed that before JLo said that!) I really liked it.
Erika – Hated parts of that arrangement but otherwise that’s the most I’ve ever liked Erika.
Jermaine – Aw I actually liked his song.
Skylar – She sounded alright I guess but I didn’t like that arrangement much. I spent more time trying to remember what it ought to sound like than enjoying it.
Joshua – Yes, sir! That is the Joshua I fell in love with. That was amazing!
Hollie – No doubt she is amazing.
Favorites: Joshua stole the night for me
In trouble: Deandre or Heejun 
Questions: Do the judges change clothes throughout the show? What is that thing on Randy’s jacket?
Okay, I just listened to Phillip and Joshua’s performances, they both did really well!
No I don’t think they do. JLo had that yellow dress on all night. I think Randy had a flower on his jacket. Why? I don’t know. Seemed kind of weird to me.
