re: NBC The Voice Season 5 Thread

Finally, you're seeing the light. Now, if you go to team Tessanne, there's a problem.

Wrong. And I bet I have more musical experience than you do. How about that, hotshot?

I did get a musical scholarship to college... but that was about 15 years ago.

Doesn't matter, she gone.

kat's performance last night wasn't nearly as bad as some of y'all made it out to be.

I thought it was very fluttery (is that a word?) and she seemed nervous. I know what they were going for and that could have been awesome, but she looked out of her comfort zone.

Caught up last night.

Austin's Your Love sucked. I like him, but that sounded bad. He's struggled the last two weeks. Monday he sounded weird and different (in a bad way).

Jacquie. Couple of hiccups early but sounded really good for the most part.

Will. Didn't like that song choice for whatever reason. He sounds just okay.

Caroline. I liked it. Thought it was a cool version of that song and she sounded good. The music was too loud though.

Cole. fricking perfect song choice for him (and it's just an awesome song anyway). Best of the night so far.

Tessanne. Still don't like her but she sounded good though.

Ray. Sounds good but the goddamn band is too loud again.

James. I thought he was kinda up and down but overall good. And the band and background singers are, yet again, too fricking loud. That is getting annoying.

Kat. We Belong is a great song choice for her. I thought she sounded really good and rebounded well from last week.

Matthew I thought started off way too weak, but by the end of it he sounded really good as usual. Music too loud and drowned him out. Again.



So Austin and Kat are gone. I thought the bottom three just based on Monday performances were Austin, Matthew, and Will. So not surprised to see Austin gone. And even though Kat brought it this week, her leaving also isn't shocking since she was on the bubble last week. I guess maybe people are tired of Caroline..?...if this week is any indication, I expect her to be gone next week barring some ridiculous performance.

Front runners at this point IMO are Cole and Jacquie, with James and Matthew not far behind. I like that there is no clear #1 this season like there was last season with Danielle.

I agree that the song was a good choice for her. She just couldn't sing it well.

---

She was in way over her head. Or maybe the performance aspect of it took away too much from the vocals.

That is why I've always liked the slower more accoustic performances. The band, backup singers, and crazy stuff going on onstage always overpower the singer.

You must have heard something different from what some of the rest of us heard.

Kat hate is blinding some of you. I am not against her being gone because she was one of the weaker singers left on the show but she did good this week. all the objective ones think so it's the ones that have spewed much hate for her that are saying she was terrible.

Is this where I put < Grey?

Seriously I think it's going to come down to Cole, Matthew, and Jackie. I think James could end up doing something after the show. The rest are kind of meh although I like Ray.

I could see James or Will making a run... but Caroline, Ray, and Tessanne I don't think have much of a shot at even the finals.

I enjoy his style probably more than the rest of the field. At least I enjoy the direction he's been pushed in. I don't think he's as good vocally as a few others, but I'd be more likely to buy his music.
