Is "The Voice" Your New Vice?

I am taping it, but D has so much homework, and she sits and the dinning room table so I can’t watch TV till she goes bed.

I am pulling for Owen!

Yeah,who pits Owen and Ryan against each other!!! (I’m very happy about the outcome.)

Hannah was amazing!

All thru tonight, I’ve been in agreement with the coaches’ decisions. I also think Miley has been surprisingly great.

Yeah, I am pleasantly surprised by Miley.

That was one fierce version of Gypsy. I think that performance by Katie was my favorite so far this season.

Joni’s the river is just an incredible song. This should be good.

Okay, that was wonderful

She’s killing it, in the best way.

I can’t believe no one stole Daniel

Okay, I am officially crazy about Emily. She’s on my team if she survives.

I thought Daniel was a little off key. But overall I’ve liked the songs tonight. They like the oldies (aka my genre)

Agree, Miley is a pleasant surprise. Really enjoying tonight’s episode

The River…Fantastic!

Emily, Emily, Emily. much love!

I was sad to see Daniel go, but I knew that he would be leaving when I saw he was paired with Alisan. She is really strong. I still don’t have all the names straight. I liked Owen a lot and was glad to see his “snippet” in the battle round did not mean his days were numbered.

Daniel made such a poor song choice and genre. I see him doing more Michael Buble stuff wearing a tuxedo.

Haven’t been wowed by Paxton yet. Had his eyes shut for almost his entire performance.

I think Lacy would have more career success if she was a country singer rather than a rocker.

Loved Hannah’s performance but not her “Hannah Huston hands”. Find them, and those fingers of hers, to be a little distracting.

Loved Alisan tonight. She is so much better when she uses all that power of hers more sparingly-- like she did tonight.

Loved Emily and liked Owen and Shalyah.

The biggest surprise for me tonight (Monday) was from Katie. I’m surprised that she only barely cracked the top-200 iTunes ranking (currently at #181). Hannah was leading (#47) and Alisan was second (#68), with Katie third when I checked very early this morning.

I’m definitely going to cut Ryan from my team and will wait until after Tuesday night’s knockouts to see who I replace him with.

I think tonight the women were the stars however Tuesday night might be the guys’ turn to shine.

I agree that Daniel chose the entirely wrong song and style. Too bad. I think he has a great voice. I guess I’m in the minority, but I did not love Hannah. And my D said, “Put your hands down!” At first I thought she was doing sign language.

Latest iTunes top-200 rankings from the Monday night knockouts:

Hannah Huston “House of the Rising Sun” #45 (Team Pharrell)
Alisan Porter “River” #54 (Team Christina)
Katie Basden “Gypsy” #163 (Team Blake)
Shalyah Fearing “A Broken Wing” #180 (Team Pharrell)

Oh, wait. I did like Hannah, a lot, seeing that she’s the one who sang Rising Sun. I still don’t have their names strait. I will have to do some research to find the girl that used her hands a lot. I can’t even remember what she sang.

It IS Hannah who used her hands a lot. She is the pre-school teacher and my D said she probably was used to doing hand signs with every kiddie song. lol. I like her voice, though. I think it is Emily whose voice I’m not so sure about.

IMO, tonight was just “meh” until Tamar. They saved the best for last!
