American Idol Season 13 - The Voice Season 6

Hi Sheila, just found your thread.  I've watched a few of the AI shows and I agree with you.  It has been a little boring.  I don't mind the judges and the kids (the ones left are all pretty young) do have talent, so what I think it is, it the new format changes.  Hollywood week used to be exciting.  Groups competition used to be fun.  They began with such a huge group this year and then had those shows just to eliminate half of them, with the deciding based on a lot of behind the scenes singing that we never saw.  That one whole show was just about the contestants walking into the "chair room" and not much more.  Boring.  It made me miss those real early shows where they would let a whole room go, or let a whole room go through.  I really did not like this week where Top 30 went to Top 20.  Why didn't they just go to 20 last week and get to the voting weeks already?

I had a couple early faves who I think are still in it.  I'll probably need another week or two to know the names.

So far 2 out of 3 ain't bad  go America

Oh yeah the Bama boys got it going on and so do the girls   love it  go Dexter

oh gag MK   can't stand her even more than Malaya blah;  sorry for all you MK lovers Sheila!  Love Sam Wolfe knew he would win the tweeny vote this year he is this years Scotty McCreery  

The Voice is "usually" good, but last season I hated it! I couldn't even tell you who won. I was so disappointed. 

I like a lot of the ones that were chosen for Top 10 (but really need to check their names out on the website.)

Of the other three add-ons, I really only liked Jena because she seems to have a little different style.

All of the girls can go home except for MK & Jena.  And the 3 guys I picked from the get go are still in : Alex, Sam & Ben.  It'll be a guy year this year, is my thought.

SPOILER ALERT (in case you didn't see the show)

TOP 13

Voted in through
America’s votes:

1. Malaya
Watson – I love the fact that she plays a tuba. She’s quirky – and very young

2. Ben
Briley – one of the ‘Bama Boys – cool that they all got selected

3. Emily
Piriz – also young, but has a good voice

4. Alex
Preston – has a very strange stage persona, and kind of an alternative voice

5. Jessica
Meuse – rocker chick! I like her voice

6. Dexter
Roberts – ‘Bama Boy!

7. Caleb
Johnson – yep - MiniMeatloaf 

8. Majesty
Rose – another quirky one

9. MK
Nobilette – love her voice and purity of tone, but zero stage presence

10. Sam
Woolf – cutie pie for the ‘tweeners

Selected through
the judges’ “Wild Card” after singing for their lives:

11. Jena
Irene – young but talented. Powerful voice

12. Kristen
O'Connor – guess they needed a nurse on staff. Didn’t like her performance
tonight

13. C.J.
Harris – Don’t know why, but we’re really rooting for him. Another ‘Bama Boy.

Sang
for their lives but didn’t make it:

Spencer Lloyd – another pretty face (those eyes!), but weak
voice

Bria Anai – scared teenager with a powerful voice. She put on
a good stage act, though, even though she couldn’t keep in tune.

Didn’t
get enough votes, and not even considered for “Wild Card”:

Marrialle Sellers – the Miley Cyrus clone!

Emmanuel Zidor – OMG,
had enough of him at his audition

Malcolm Allen – can’t really remember his voice

George Lovett – again, can’t really remember his voice

Briana Oakley – strange, because I thought she had a good
voice
