I am no longer in the top 999. I have 1,610,500. I have 5 on my team for 50 days so still deciding my top 3. Currently Sarah Grace, Kennedy and Tyke are top 3. The next two are Kameron and Patrique. I also have DeAndre at 49 days so I have wiggle room depending on the results.
merit, I think Tyke will be eliminated and Kennedy, MaKenzie, and SandyRedd will be safe or be saved. Patrique could be going home if he isn’t saved. I think Kymberli and Chevel get voted through. Sarah Grace had a good and unique performance playing the organ but I think she is fighting for the save with Abby. If Sarah survives, I personally would not move her up. I would probably choose DeAndre. Our bottom 5 (including max day counts) are the same. I am still considering moving Kameron or DeAndre into my top-3 instead of Dave. Does Kameron split the Country votes with Kirk and Chevel? DeAndre could be the lone male R & B guy after half go home tonight. Should be an interesting results show…
Tyke is on Adam’s team and so will not be competing with Kennedy, Makenzie, SandyRedd, and Patrique. That doesn’t mean he won’t be going home, but Adam seems to love him and would probably save him if he is not voted through.
I also am thinking of replacing Dave. I think Chris is more interesting and I have had him for many days (not able to look it up right now) so I would not take too big of a hit. I don’t have Kirk on my team, so I hate to not have any representation from Blake’s team.
There are many who are good singers but I just don’t care for them. Sarah and Radha are two in that category for me.
I decided to keep Dave so that I have Team Blake represented. I am hoping there are less gritty/raspy vocalists if teammate Chris and Keith (on Team Kelly) go home.
The comeback artists showed why they weren’t chosen originally. Neither deserves a spot over the ones eliminated tonight.
Agree that the comeback artists were awful, and their songs just went on and on. I thought they would never shut up!
Have not seen the Tuesday show yet but I did see results. Only one (mild) surprise for me. I lost 3 of my 8. I only have 3 max day artists: Kennedy, DeAndre, and Sarah Grace. My top 3 will be Kennedy, Kimberli, and either Dave or newly added Kirk.
I think my new point total in the morning will be 2,073,000.
I wasn’t surprised by the results. The 5 I liked the best all got through (all women). Interesting breakdown in the finals with the judges along gender lines.
I only lost one of my top 8. My top 3 are Kennedy, Tyke, and Dave. I am really second-guessing Tyke and Dave. Since Tyke was not voted through, I’m thinking he is not resonating with the voters like I thought he would. And Dave’s off night has me doubting. I really like Deandre and Kymberli, but that puts me with 0 from Blake’s team. Decisions, decisions. Oh well, it’s not the World Series.
musicmom, I think Dave bounces back from his rough Monday night performance. I ended up dropping him because I decided his day count would hurt my point total. Ditto for Kymberli. Dropped her primarily due to her lowish day count. Both were artists their respective coaches saved but, in Dave’s case, he probably didn’t get as many votes due to his song selection.
I have 3 artists that have maximum days on my team: Kennedy, Sarah Grace, and DeAndre, and those were the artists I eventually ended up putting in my top-3. In retrospect, I wish I had Chevel from Team Kelly, instead of Sarah Grace, but I don’t.
I do not remember a previous season when there were so many top-12 artists (if any) that were involved in montages in the Battle Rounds. This season there were 4 such artists: Chevel, MaKenzie, Kirk, and Kennedy.
I have 1,988,500 points (tied for 6th). My point total in the previous post was incorrect.
I am back in the top 999 with 1,740,000. Having three at 51 days and one at 50 days helped. I didn’t replace the three I lost last night until this morning. I forgot every little bit of points for new people added to my team helps too.
Last night I watched the knockout portion of the Monday show. I thought that just about everyone seemed off. Many performances where there was no discernible tune, or a shaky grasp on it. Very disappointing. Actually, I was so bored that I turned it off before the final 2.
My top 2 are Kennedy (50), Tyke (50), and Dave (43), although they are not necessarily my favorite singers. I lost everyone else except for Chevel and Kirk.
This season there really isn’t anyone I’ve gotten excited about. I don’t share “America’s” love for little girls singing far beyond their experience. Nor do I care about the sob stories. People like Franc, Kameron, Steve, Michael, and Xacai are so much better than many who have stayed, IMHO.
I forgot to put in new members last night so that hurt me. I have Kennedy, Sarah Grace and Chevel in my top 3, but I don’t think Chevel is developed enough and there is something weird to me about Sarah Grace. I have Reagan and Chris for 15 days or I could add newbies to my team DeAndre or Kirk. Decisions, decisions.
I agree about there being something weird about Sarah Grace. I had Chevel as my token little girl. 
She could grow up to be a decent country singer. I wanted to answer every question in her “grandpa good old days” song, “Actually, no.” 
eyemamom, I would add Kirk. Blake will find a way to keep him around more than anyone else he has on his team.
I wonder if Sarah Grace suffers from some form of dwarfism. She has a beautiful voice.

The cable messed up at the beginning so missed part of the first song. Deandre just sang an interesting song.
Kennedy is incredible— and only 13!
So we’ve seen Chris, Tyke, DeAndre, Kymberli and Kennedy.
I thought only Kennedy was excellent. If I only had these to choose from Tyke would be the one leaving.
