I've listened to the performances from tonight's "Top 3" show.
Elliott...
1. Open Arms: Clive Davis' pick. AI2, Clay sang it during the group rounds and was cut before returning as America's Wildcard Choice. A younger Nick Carter sang it during BSB's European tour days. Well rendered beginning but wobbles badly later. A bit too short.
2. What You Won't Do For Love: Paula Abdul's pick. OK but very lounge singer.
3. I Believe to My Soul: Artist's choice. Pretty darn authentic! His best of the three.
He's got a nice soulful voice. Solid style. Was probably nervous earlier.
Kat...
1. I Believe I Can Fly: Clive's pick. Putrid song. She tries but sucks worse than even R Kelly.
2. Somewhere Over the Rainbow: Simon's pick. AI2, Kim Locke sang it several times. Kat's best of the night. A bit theatrical. Tries to show off mid song but it lacks emotion. Ends OK.
3. I Ain't Got Nothing But the Blues: She's got something but is AIN'T the blues. HORRIBLE! And the high note is sour enough to scare small creatures.
Might be better doing theater.
Taylor...
1. Dancing in the Dark: Clive's pick. Not a big Springsteen fan. The choice made sense but it was a bit inauthentic.
2. You Are So Beautiful: Randy's choice. Great choice. Not bad. Except the falsetto. *shudder*
3. Try a Little Tenderness: Boring. Something's missing here. Seems forced.
Whatever.
No predictions because I didn't see, only heard, the performances. None of them grab me but Elliot could be interesting depending on the producer. Kat reminds me of a better Diana Degarmo. I've not heard anything that I've kept this season. I've still got Clay's performances from AI2. I also have Anthony Fedorov's from AI4 and listen to them or rewatch frequently.
