re: NBC The Voice Season 5 Thread

If JL or Cole go home based on the full season of performances, folks ain't right. They've been the best throughout the whole season week in and week out. Based on her performance last night, Tessanne will probably stay, and it was fairly close between Will & James.

If you vote do you vote on just on the latest performance or for their singing over the whole season? I base mine on the whole body of work.

And I admit I could be just a slight bit bias, but I do see Cole as consistent throughout the season.

I wasn't taking it personally, you are good peeps. Unlike Danielle last season who was 16 and gave consistently stellar performances some appear to be pushing JL with a large bias on potential instead of in-show performance/achievement. IMO, if Danielle or Javier had shown up for any season of the Voice in which the other was not competing they would have a very high chance of winning, not sure I would say that about any in the current 5 although if some don't find a way to blow away voters T might walk off as #1 overall. I believe Cole is maxed out performance-wise and it would take failures of others for him to advance/win.

Oompaw, if I were voting it would be on current performance, not past aggregate performances. Whomever is finishing strong should get votes.

Bump for game time!

Cassadee Pope in house

Yeah, for a first single off their upcoming album, good song IMO, that could be a big hit.

Also, Cassadee is singing probably my favorite song off her album "I wish I could break your heart".

Little Swon rockin' the house and givin' away a signed guitar! He sung a lot tonight, too. They sounded their best when they were doing the harmony. Good for the Swons!!

"Swoncerts".

I have a feeling that song is hitting #1 on iTunes Country chart.

A very good feeling.

I know tonight's show has started, but I wanted to add a few things about last night's show.

Cole does have wonderful talent and a great voice, but his performances aren't very dynamic. I had to laugh last night when he told Blake he was going to move like a rock star. He hardly moved at all! It wouldn't hurt him to learn how to perform. I think he should win.

I've been one of those who've been on the JL love train, but I did NOT like her last two performances. Last night showed she doesn't know how to interpret the meaning of a song. She has a great voice, and she added some quieter moments and sounded good in parts, but it just didn't' make sense to me. She IS dynamic and interesting to watch.

I like Will. I know he's not a favorite here. He could learn to be more dynamic, as well.

I like Tessanne, I know she is the least favorite here. She knows how to perform!

But in the end, would I buy any of their records? I don't know.

Last, Cee Lo and Xtina are worthless judges.

James eliminated to no surprise at all.

He had one good song/performance that carried him as far as it could, everyone had him eliminated tonight.

Lowest vote total isn't surprising either.

I think Michelle was the ultimate gimmick singer to make it to the finals
