[Nicky91]

so excited for this week's show

[Mystic Mock]

I'm looking forward to it to Nicky, although me and singing competitions always go hand in hand with the exception of American Idol for some reason.

[Nicky91]

lovely to hear Mock

[Nicky91]

my recap about the semi finals

Hunter Plake - loved him do a U2 cover, performed with lots of emotion

Jesse Larson - i really like Jesse for some reason, he has a unique voice i think

Lauren Duski - very beautiful emotional performance, wow

Vanessa Ferguson - it's Always very difficult to take on a Luther Vandross song, but i think she did a good job

Chris Blue - finally not so much dancing as last week, and i really liked his voice in this performance

Aliyah Moulden - beautiful staging, haunting performance it seemed, really really nice to watch

Brennley Brown - america got it's new teen country superstar i think, really nice performance, and i actually love every sara evans song

T'Soul - good performance, but not wowing me for some reason


my duet ranking

1. Aliyah & Hunter with let it go, wow

2. Chris & Vanessa with If i ain't got you, this was really lovely

3. Brennley & Lauren with good hearted woman, really nice watchable country performance

4. Jesse & TSOUL, with i wish, i really found it a boring performance, for a song which is supposed to be so uptempo with lots of dancing, i saw no dancing at all

[Mystic Mock]

Hunter Plake - A slow startup, but very good once he gets into it, I would've loved him to have played the Electric Guitar alot more though.

Chris Blue and Vanessa Ferguson - A very polished duet, but the song is very predictable to give to these two I felt.

TSoul - I understand that everyone has their style of Music, but his performances are really starting to sound the same every week, same tempo, same way of singing, same way of performing the song, if he gets to the final he really needs to change it up.

Brennley Brown - Better from her I think, although I don't know if it will grab many people's attention to vote for her.

Aliyah Moulden and Hunter Plake - Hunter did very well here I think, again the song choice is a bit predictable for these two, although having said that Aliyah sounded like a Zombie during this song, not her best round I don't think.

Lauren Duski - I think I would've liked this performance more if she'd made it more haunting, again a good vocal though.

Jesse Larson and TSoul - A bit dull.

Chris Blue - A very good vocal, but I think that I'm in the minority that preferred his performance last week to this week.

Vanessa Ferguson - I like her doing Music on the Piano, but her vocal was okay on the song.

Brennley Brown and Lauren Duski - This performance felt like a karaoke performance to me.

Jesse Larson - This was a massive improvement on his duet with TSoul, it's possibly my favourite Jesse performance at the lives, his in trouble in the vote though as his failed to make the top 10 on ITunes, I personally really enjoyed it though.

Aliyah Moulden - Much better than her Zombiefied vocal on the Duet, I do wish that they'd stop treating her like a kid on the show that's suppose to be releasing songs for teens and adults.

[Nicky91]

isn't it a idea for the voice, to do a celebrity version in the usa


cause i really like to see some actors and actresses sing and perform, John Stamos for example, he is a good amateur singer, but with extra coaching he can become a lot better

I think we've agreed on quite alot there, especially the duets.

Let's hope that America shares our tastes.

They could, although I tend to normally find that the Civilian versions can normally get screwed over for the Celeb version, BB and Family Fortunes are proof of that.

The show sounds interesting, are the Celebs any good at singing on the show?

And tbh Nicky I'm not very good at knowing Magicians I'm afraid.

yeah you got the daughter of Herman Brood, who had hits like Saturday Night, her name is Holly Mae Brood

reality star from our dutch version of Geordie Shore, Bibi Breijman, she is a really good singer

a radio DJ, Gijs Staverman, he did the carlton song/dance last week, it's not unusual, which was really fun and cool from him

The Voice USA Celeb Edition could be interesting, another show where Gary Busey wins.

Onto the current season at the moment, how on earth did Hunter not go through, don't get me wrong I don't think that Jesse should've been in there either, but Hunter has been an iconic contestant for them in this series and imo is the most talented.

The public are so harsh on anything that isn't Pop Music, or in America's case Country.

Hunter was so robbed

No offense to them both as they can actually sing, but Aliyah and Lauren were stiff as hell in that semi-final, and in Lauren's case played it incredibly safe, yet they go through without needing a Twitter save? It makes absolutely no sense to me.

maybe just more fans than Hunter, Jesse and Brennley


Lauren is really great so please Mock you can have your opinion but she wasn't stiff not to me

[Mystic Mock]

I'm not saying that Lauren is bad, it's just that to beat Hunter imo you have to be bloody exceptional and I'm not convinced that Lauren or Aliyah delivered that imo.

okay you've got a point

[AarynGriesfan]

Lauren had the best original song ever and it wasn't even close! I will be shocked if she doesn't win The Voice tomorrow night!
