Top 4 Contestants Perform Cinema Songs with Jamie Foxx as Mentor
1) Lee - "Kiss From a Rose" - I love Lee's voice, as you all know... so I'm sorry to say I was very disappointed with his performance. It could mostly be because I have never cared for this song, but Lee did get off to a rough start, and seemed to be off key in several other places. I don't think he's in too much danger though.
2) Big Mike - "Will You Be There?" - Another strange song choice in my opinion, but it did sound nice. Not anything earth shattering, but well arranged, and I still appreciate Mike's beautiful, underrated voice.
3) Casey - "Mrs. Robinson" - Aside from the judges acting like fools, I thought Casey not only chose a fantastic song, but I really enjoyed his unique version of it. I think he could have added a tad more charisma to amp it up, but it's a classic song that he made modern - isn't that what they're always asking for?
4) Crystal - "I'm Alright" - I'LL SAY! I know, I know - every week I gush over Crystal, but I can't help it. She takes every song and has this amazing talent of turning it into something of her own. It's musical genius, and I look forward to it every week. I know she's had a few rough weeks, but overall she consistently delivers.
Duet 1) Lee & Crystal - "Falling Slowly" - FANTASTIC :)
Duet 2) Casey & Mike - "Have You Ever Loved a Woman?" - FANTASTIC :)
My predictions?
Either Big Mike or Casey would be the logical choice to say goodbye, but I really have no clue...
They've both had a lot of ups and downs... Mike has the best voice, but Casey is the heartthrob...
I'm going to guess Mike, even though in all fairness, I think it should be Casey...
YOUR turn! What do YOU think?
*Post-Elimination rant: Big Mike was robbed. He deserved one more week. But he took it with such grace.
