Last night's episode (because I was too busy raiding to watch it):

The Night of "Ush"'s freaky hat, Round 2!

Biff vs. Sisaundra: Biff has lots of fun when he's on stage and he has a decent voice, but Sissaundra is a fricking MACHINE! I loves me some James Brown so I am giddy they are doing Man's World.

First practice, Biff sounds flat when he was singing "Maaaan" at the beginning.

I much rather the contestants meeting with their families before the match than that stiff, bullshite with the coaches. I can't help but wonder if someone in power there is reading these posts. If so, gimme money for consulting!



Both artists are having great performances ESPECIALLY at the end but DAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYUM how does Sisaundra hold those power notes for so damned long!?! She has to have like a 3rd lung or something. No matter how good Biff was on that song but there's just no way in hell he can beat that. At all. I agree with Adam and "Shak" on Sisaundra: her register is SICK and I think she may actually be from another world. This song was #SisaundrasWorld, dammit.

It's too bad Adam couldn't swap Delvin out for Biff, I think he's the better talent.

Ddendyl vs. Deja: Dendil needs to open her mouth more when she sings. It's too bad "Shak" wouldn't let Ddendyl play her piano on this one. Deja has the better tone to me, but I don't know if she's really ready for this level yet.

Deja had a couple of slightly off notes around the middle of her first line, I think it may be nerves. Good performance by both, I'm torn. I don't care for Ddendyl's strange throaty sound/delivery nearly as much as I like Deja's beautiful, pure tone, but Ddendyl has a much better presence on the stage and the experience to really get into the song (much better than Deja).

Deja wins, I think that was a good call.

Snippets;dc (don't care).

Morgan vs. Stevie Jo: Morgan sounds a bit too whispery and gravelly for me, like he can't sing without it. Stevie Jo continues to surprise me.

Stevie was on point with his notes at the beginning, Morgan was a little shaky. When Morgan gets rolling he's good but Stevie Jo was on the ball during the entire song and took many more chances. Morgan had a really good spot that surprised even "Ush", "Ush"'s hat & Blake. He needed more moments like that for me to give it to him though. I think it's a situation where they both pushed themselves, I just think Stevie Jo is a bit rather down the road than Morgan. "Ush" and "Ush"'s hat seem to agree.

Good job on playing with the steal, Adam.

Finally caught up on both episodes last night.

Monday:

First and foremost, I want to slap that fricking hat off of Ursher's head. You're not CeeLo, and that's a good thing. Idiot.

Audra/Megan. Audra is good. I don't normally dig short hair and crazy tattoos, but megan looks hot as frick. Both did well, but this was Audra IMO. Off chance that Megan will get stolen........nope, no steal.

Cierra/TJ. Weirdly enough, I think Cierra won this particular battle, but TJ is better. TJ, good call.

Jake/Tess. It really is pretty amazing to me how far Jake has come. They sound REALLY good together. This is a close battle, but I think Jake takes it. But no matter who loses, they should get stolen. BOOM..Tess stolen.

Also, isn't this now the second time that the person Jake beat has gotten stolen? That's a testament to how good he really is.

Carson: "Shak." Ugh. Go frick yourself, douche.

Christina/Sam. Both sound pretty good. Even though Sam does that stupid weird pronunciation thing sometimes, I think she sounded better. But Adam goes with Christina...I guess a built-in fan base can't hurt.

Josh/Patrick. "Run To You" is a terrible song for a competition like this IMO. Doesn't lend itself to many chances to showcase your voice, and if you do try to, it makes the song sound weird since it's so mellow/low. Neither one is shining, but I like Patrick better, so I'd go with him. Good choice.

Hobbit Josh/Delvin. Three GREAT song choices for them to choose from. I was really hoping for Righteous Brothers, but you can't go wrong with a little Stevie Wonder though. I am actually pumped for this battle, and I love how pretty much the first rehearsal had them stage-ready...they are both good. Before it even starts I think the loser will get stolen. Josh has such a fricking AWESOME sound to his voice, man. This is one of the best battles the show has ever seen IMO...they are both laying it all out there and both sound great. I think Josh stays and Delvin gets stolen......nope. Delvin, wow. Can't believe Adam chose him. Ursh steals Josh immediately, which is obviously a good call..he's an incredible singer. I can't believe Blake didn't try to steal there. And even Usher said that he thought it'd be Josh and he was gonna steal Delvin, so it's cool that he ended up with who he thought the winner should've been anyway.

Solid show.



Tuesday:

Biff/Sassandra. I feel like Sassandra is WAY oversinging, but she's good though. I really like Biff, but I think Sassandra will win (and prolly should). I do still feel like she comes off as super fake, but whatever.

Ddendyl/Deja. Well, I automatically hope Ddendyl loses because of the way she's pronouncing shite stupidly. Neither one of them stood out IMO, and they both sounded very similar. I agree that they are really different, but it almost sounded like they were trying to sing the song exactly the same as the other person. As soon as Shakira said how unique Ddendyl sounded, I thought she'd pick her since she's so hung up on unique voices, but she went with Deja, and I thought that's who should've won.

Skimming through a secound-round battle? frick you, NBC.

Carson: "Shak" again. frick YOU, DOUCHE!

Morgan/Stevie Jo. I like the grit in Morgan's voice, but I think Stevie Jo is much better and more talented. As the performance went on, though, Morgan did some cool things. Stevie Jo was the clear winner IMO, but I'm kinda glad Adam stole Morgan. I'm interested to see what else he can do. And I love seeing the contestants backstage giving their interview when the other person gets stolen, and seeing how genuinely excited they get for that person. Stevie Jo was PUMPED that Morgan got stolen. That was cool to watch.
