re: The Voice--Season 6 thread

I was going to do my usual in-progress stream-of-thought post, but the site was down while I was watching, so just going to have to go off memory here...

Considering only two were being axed that meant (to me) Christina, Josh and Sisaundra were no-brainers. I felt really comfortable with Tess staying and just KNEW Jake was a goner.

I was very wrong on the last two points. Jake has done well over the course of the show with Monday night being the exception, I guess that and his personality helped carry him.

Dani was one I had pegged as being a possible elimination. Her song was just meh and she had some issues. TJ was good, but he seemed like he always held back too much. It was like he was focusing too much on the technicalities and not enough on feeling the songs. He seemed to come out of that shell a bit on his last song but it was too little too late.

"Shak" and her new song...

1. Obvious lip sync if obvious, especially when she can't decide whether she wants to do the front voice or the background "oooo" and goes back and forth because of it.

2. I have never been a fan of that back-of-the-sinuses/throat thing she does and this song was fuuuuuuuull of that, and it was in all the wrong places.
