Grimmie is no surprise. Jake is a lot higher than I expected. I'm thinking Delvin could be the third with the two girls.

If life was fair Jake's free riding would end. The thing with Bria is what I have been pointing to past few weeks and shame on Ursher and Adam for making her cry. I love blues and blues rock, but most people don't. In rehearsals it was made to look like she was really going to do something different last night and it started that way, but she reverted back to full tilt Bria the last 3rd, which everyone has heard for weeks and has become formulaic. She reminds me a decent bit of Susan Tedeschi with a much more powerful voice.

My wife's favorites are Delvin and Kristen, and I think Kristen is in the lead with her.

As far as enjoyable range, Grimmie does have an edge over the other contestants. Sisaundra was good, but I thought terrible song choice and I don't see a chance in hell of her winning due to her over the top performances. My favorite last night was Audra, and I genuinely am not a big country fan, that girl can sing.

My unordered top 5: Josh, Audra, Grimmie, Bria, & Kristen. Hmmm, that is 4 girls with very different vocal styles. Josh was good, but his song and performance were not nearly as memorable as last week's, didn't really see where that song offered him any upside potential.

If Audra and Kristen continue what they are doing, Bria is going to have a hard time making it to the top 4 IMO. Maybe Adam and Usher just want her to use all of her ability instead of staying in her comfort zone. I like Kat and all, but if I never hear Landslide again in my lifetime it would be fine with me.
