- Paul sang(?) "Old Time Rock and Roll" by Bob Seger. To be frank, I'm over him. Move on.
- Lauren sang "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus. It was okay... nothing spectacular. What on EARTH were the judges talking about?
- Stefano sang "End of the Road" by Boyz II Men. Meh... it was just okay. Again, are the judges on drugs? If so, I want some of what they're having, please.
- Scotty sang "Cross My Heart" by George Strait. Predictable and boring... but the judges think he's the second coming... Whaaaa????
- Casey sang "Nature Boy" by Nat King Cole against the advice of his 'mentors'. I think it was a good call and I ADORED his performance! So did the judges... but, wait, they adore EVERYTHING... so never mind!
- Haley sang "Call Me" by Blondie. She did a pretty good imitation of Deborah Harry for the first half and then went all screamy and pitchy at the end. I was NOT a fan of this performance and... wait... what? Neither were the judges? Quick, get them another 'lude!
- Jacob sang "Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Simon and Garfunkle after Jimmy panned both of his song choices. He has the chops for it and did it justice. Of course, the judges swooned over him - guess the drugs kicked back in!
- James sang "Heavy Metal" by Sammy Hagar, against Jimmy's advice and he rocked it out. Heavy Metal as a genre is not my thing, but at least this kid is remaining true to who he is as an artist and isn't afraid to push back.
Over-all, I would say that either Stefano or Paul will go home this week... unless America doesn't 'get' Casey's nod to Jazz. I'm still missing Pia. That girl has major pipes... but perhaps her being sent home will be a blessing in disguise.
