re: ****The Voice--Season 4 Thread ****

Julie picked a really bad song for her voice.

The spike-haired Latino chick... wtf was everyone hearing in her voice that I was missing? She sound a little pitchy on a couple of notes, but most of the song was sent yelling at the mic like it was a noisy child (I had flashbacks to the bald lesbian from Season 1).

Adam nailed it on the guy with the raspy voice. He had a great, pure sound to his voice at times but would then seem to be forcing that rasp into it. I blame Carson for pushing him in that direction during the interview. fricking Carson...

I wonder if they are showing the performers and results in order because at times it looks like Shakira and Usher (Gusher... lulz!) seem more relaxed and then they seem less relaxed. It's a bit annoying.

The country singer (guy) at the end is a contender. He has a solid, strong, pure voice (very little, if any vibrato) that could handle multiple genres. I think Adam was a good pick for him as Adam is more likely to expand his abilities into other genres than Blake would be.

The country singing gal was pretty good as well, but I don't see her making it to the end.

The Swonn Brothers were good, the younger one seemed to have a better voice but I'm not 100% certain because he mainly harmonized. Would like to hear them sing something where they could both shine.

The rest were okay, but no final four material as far as I could tell.

Yeah, that guy was solid, no doubt.

The Cuban girl may surprise. I just have a feeling.

Yeah, I'm still trying to figure Urhser and Shakira out. I still am not crazy about either one of them quite yet. Shakira is TERRIBLE at convincing people to join her team though..."I know you will want to pick Blake, and then prolly Adam, but I think you should pick me." WTF?

frick off, Carson moment: When you're in the family room (where you shouldn't be anyway), don't tell the family "Don't worry about it...no matter what happens, this is a great thing." Well no, you frickhead. This is a pretty big deal for these people and could be HUGE for their loved one who's on the show. So shut the frick up. And later on he was talking to the TVs telling the judges to turn around...GET THE frick OUT OF THERE, CARSON, YOU DICK.

The Latina chick that Blake and Adam turned around for sucks...no idea what the frick they were doing there. Actually, there were several people that judges were turning for who sucked...i.e. the dude who was back from last year. He is BAAAAAD, but Shakira picked him. Weird.

That country chick Blake got is really fricking good.

That last country dude that Adam got...all I kept thinking was how ugly is his babymama because he's a good looking dude but his kids were weird little ugly ginger kids. And I kinda feel bad saying that, cuz they're just kids..but still, that's what I kept thinking the whole time he was singing.


Also, is it me or is the show different this year a little bit..? It's like each judge now is directly from a specific genre. Adam is pop rock, Shakira is Latin/global-ish, Usher is R&B/pop, and Blake is country. Which is cool, but it seems like every time someone comes up and sings, it's fairly obvious who they're gonna choose. Almost every country artist chooses Blake, for example. So every time judges are fighting over someone, it becomes a game of "Let's see how alike you and I are so you'll pick me" instead of "I can make you better and I want you on my team." I dunno, maybe it's just me, but it's kind of annoying the shite out of me. "Oh, you're from Texas? Well I am a country star from Oklahoma!!" "Oh, you sang in church growing up? Well SO DID I!!" "Oh, you speak Spanish? Well me too so let's talk some fricking Spanish!!!" I mean shite, Usher even tries to lure young chicks to his team by dropping Bieber's name. And I know The Voice has always had some of that, but now it feels like it happens on every contestant.

Coco, as I hate Carson with the families as much as you, I was thinking of you last night when at one point, he was jumping up and down and hugging one family when a chair turned for their loved one like he just won the lottery or something.
Do you remember the part I'm talking about? It was WAY over the top, even for him.

He's the most annoying piece of shite.

how about when carson counseled that guy to make his voice raspy and weird cause having a "different" voice really sets you apart for the judges. So the guy goes out and does a big fake raspy run for 2 minutes and nobody picks him.

it was the young guy who said it was his first gig and adam told him he sound like he was doing an impression.

and the poor nashville flood chick had probably a #1 country hit a few years back. they put sob stories even on famous singers.

Carson needs to keep quiet. He's a goob.

both have a ton to do with whether her voice is good or not
