re: The Voice--Season 9 thread

Honestly I don't even see the need for a finale. Just give it to Jordan. He is far and away the best one.

However, if I had to pick the one that will make it in the music industry after the show, it's Emily Ann. Not my kind of music, but she fits the mold perfectly for country.

Jordan is the most extraordinary guy I've seen on the show . . . ever. No doubt.

Emily Ann is a natural, though, to be a star. Blake is right about that. She has the talent and unbelievable poise for her age. She's going to make it in the business. Plus, so far, she's avoided the modern country pop that I fricking loathe.

Pretty sure Jordan had the best performance I've ever seen last night. That was unreal.

Also, whoever produces this show and decided that after cutting from 24 to 12, then eliminating one per week for three weeks, that it would be good to just eliminate 5 at once... they need to be fired.

Makes no sense at all. I can't recall whether they did this before...dropping 5 at once. I don't recall this happening.

Anyway, if I were the other singers, I'd have been so grateful not to have had to follow Jordan. He made mincemeat of everyone else. He's ahead of the others by a landslide.

Emily Ann is a natural. I liked Amy also.

Sunshine had a good performance, but yet another religious song. I'm religious, but I don't want to hear it on a singing competition. Same old songs. He had no standout moments again.

Jordan is in the number 1 spot on itunes now, over Adele.

Well, that's pretty telling. I wonder if he could make it in the entertainment world, though, as fantastic as he is. He's got the voice, but he's not exactly the package. He's still looking pretty pawpaw. I could see him on Broadway in a heartbeat.

My wife (the current nice one) is dying for Jordan to do a Barbra Streisand song. The "camp" meters would go off the charts.

I actually watched the show for like 2 minutes last night, and it was some gay-ish looking dude singing (I think) Amazing Grace, and it sounded pretty bad. I'm not sure where the show is at this point (aside from being in the live shows), but for whatever reason it made me glad I gave up on it this season.

How has it been? Is Carson still someone I want to murder with my bare hands?

Oh, and Gris...what up, boo.

Carson doesn't bother me at all, but I have nothing to compare (except he's no cat deely)

Braiden is still on the there because he's a sweet little 15 year old (he's 15!!!! It's crazy!!!) btw Gwen has got to be the worst possible coach/judge in history

Oh and last night was semi finals. Goes down to final four tonight for the finale next week

HC, completely agree that it's a pretty voice but

I really forget how young some of these kids are on the show this season until they mention the ages because other than Braiden, they look older than they are. I'd totally forgotten that Zach was only 17. I always loved his tone, though he wasn't standout enough. He's got potential.

I'm not a Barrett fan either. There could be a top 3 and that would be plenty.
