My top four, in terms of who I would really like to listen to IRL:
Amy, Madi, Jeffery, Barrett
And Jordan because he is so incredible, although I doubt that IRL he would do the kind of music I’d like.
When they said Emily Ann was going to do an iconic Dolly Parton song, I immediately thought “Coat of Many Colors.” That might have been wonderful. 9 to 5 is undeniably catchy, but it isn’t one of Dolly’s best, IMHO. I love the bluegrassy tone of her voice, but don’t think she has the best musical taste to go with it.
I think it will be the top four on the itunes chart that go on, even though I’ll be really sad to say goodbye to Amy, and I certainly like her better than Emily Ann. I thought she tried to do Dolly’s song in Dolly’s style and it just showed how much weaker she is as a singer. When Amy or Madi take a known song and make it their own I’m not so apt to compare with the original. I like Madi but I think she does too much to the songs. All along I’ve thought she had too much pyrotechnics; I think Amy has more than she did and the right amount for her. Jordan has the pipes, and he almost certainly will win, but there’s something about him that doesn’t sit well with me. I guess I never forgave him for doing Adele one week and Beyonce the next. I do really like Jeffrey and have for weeks. Like jazzymom, I’ll be super happy to see Braiden go. He should have been out weeks ago and he would have been last week if Korin hadn’t forgotten her lyrics, I think. Honestly, I’m really tired of all the religious music and talk about a higher power. If there is a higher power, it seems like there are a lot more important things to be worrying about right now than who sings better on The Voice!
Well…the itunes list up now is as of 8:11 am and the only person NOT in the top 10 is Shelby. If the multiplier rule is still in effect than she’s definitely in the bottom 3.
On the (my) Voice app is an “instant save” message for tonight’s elimination show that I can use. Last season they also had this format. Does that mean there will be 3 announced tonight plus a save or 4 plus one save?
I’m glad Barrett made it through. Could hav lived without Emily Ann, but fully expected Jordan to come through. Now I guess I’m hoping for the red haired guy, but Amy or Madi would be fine with me too.
I’m torn between Madi and Jeffrey. I think I’d listen to Jeffrey more , but that’s just personal preference . They’re both very good. I agree about Barrett.
