NBC's The Voice

[maxpowr9]

Most of you are missing the point of the show. You like this person would you pay money to hear them sing? You do not become a star just singing, you need a hit song, and if you sing somebody else's song you get only 10%. The coaches are looking for that next star, so whatever song they give them is to help them win, they are not trying to lose, they are the experts, nobody's perfect.

This is something my roomie talk about a lot when we watch the show. There is a lot of talent on the show but there is little soul to it. I immediately axe a singer if they cannot play a musical instrument [having met several music majors, one cannot major in "voice".] There are plenty of talented singers that should be relegated to musical theatre because they have no soul/emotion behind what they sing. Perfect example is Trevan. He can sing ballads with relative ease, but he has no depth. On the flip side, Melanie has a ton of soul but her singing voice is "limited".

Reckon this is from The Voice UK, but this performance by Bo Bruce is what got me hooked on her. She reminds me a lot of Florence + The Machine. You can feel her emotion in the song despite it not being her own and she can sing too...

Max,

All I see is a blank white square,

[maxpowr9]

Yeah, my syntax get's shot to shit late at night...



^much better!

This is good too...



Melanie is basically a wannabe Bo Bruce but lacks any sexual appeal.

[bostonboy20]

De'Borah is not a guy...they showed clips of her when she was younger

[maxpowr9]

The two pretty boys went home [Dez and Colby]! The competition has a purpose!!! I thought that the producers would save Dez so Christina has something to do but kudos to let America vote. Kind of sad that after having her album tank and now this, Christina is hitting new lows all over.

[BetinaNungging]

my 2 baby peens gone in one night

I just cant handle this

I still cant believe the producet let him go, because he doesnt want pay Xtina for nothing in 2-3 more weeks until final right?

she can take her early leave now
no coaching, snacking burger and doing promo for Lotus

[maxpowr9]

Christina's team was stacked to the brim with wannabe pop stars and those are a dime a dozen so it's no surprise her team fell. She picked her team horribly and her piss-poor attitude on the show doesn't help either. They are not judges but are coaches/mentors and Christina seems far more interested in herself than her team. Her backhands, in particular to other females on the show is appalling. Also kind of sad when Adam out divas Christina. A lot of people can't wait till she's off the show.

As for Cody, Queen is always a death nail for performers. They are one of those artists you should never touch in a singing competition.

I'm, expecting Trevan and Melanie to go home next week but we shall see.

OMG I'm hooked now on Bo Bruce. I do see the similarity. The problem for me is that when Melanie sings, it always sounds like she's trying to whisper and be all Lindsay Pavao (which got old even the second season).

Kind of sad to see Dez go. You'd think that since he gets the biggest applause he'd still be in.

[eastofeden]

Christina has looked at bit "off" this season...she has had a few Paula Abdul moments and that is uncomfortable to watch because I like her. I am sorry to see Cody leave...Dez was just OK for me.

So...does Christina still sit on the panel now that she has no team?

[Wcw10891]

i think she will still stay on the panel just to offer her critique and fill a chair, it would look weird with an empty seat between ceelo and blake.

also i think their might be a winner's bonus, to the winning coach, like last season blake had to get maybe an extra half a mil or something cause his person won the show.

christina probly feels like crap she has the worst running of any of the coachs (Joint 3rd in season 1 and 4th in season 2, eliminated in season 3) atl east adam won a season, blake won a season and had a runner up and ceelo had a runner up (my bitch Juliet)

[BetinaNungging]

I missed the show last night
not interested in live streaming too
just checking how Xtina looks and then shut it down hahaa

I dunno it felt so weird without Team Xtina on it

I will be even more weird now that Adam has no team either. Melanie should have been gone a while ago so it was a given especially after her poor performance last nite but I was a tad surprised Amanda is going home. I actually liked her, much more than Trevan who can sing but has no personality at all.

IMO, the competition is over and Cassidee will win it all.

[BetinaNungging]

yes
it's between Cee lo and Blake all over again just like season 2

[innocentbychoice]

I'm so happy that Team Madam went home...I can't stand him. Last night when I saw them go home I was like:



In your face Madam!!

[AlmondMilk]

I was happy to see Melanie go, but I was sad that Amanda went along with her.



I'm growing tired of Casssadee. She always sounds so perfect when she executes her notes. I like the renditions of the songs she sings, but I keep wanting something more. But out of everyone left, I want her to win.

[AlmondMilk]

[eastofeden]

These final four are not really very interesting to me. I liked Amanda the best of the final six.

[BetinaNungging]

both Team Blake is topping the iTunes
Nicholas too

I can see Trevin goes home
since they will send 1 contestant by this week

I said Trevin should have gone home last week so I am not surprised at all. Also, one does not sing "Wind Beneath My Wings". It's one of those immortalized songs ever since Diana died. Once I heard what he was singing, I knew he was going home regardless of his performance. I would lump it in with the other "black listed" songs for singing competitions. Even, Christina was like: "bitch please, you are not THAT deep."

[maxpowr9]

Oh look, Trevan was eliminated what a shocker

[AlmondMilk]

Sad I wonder if he really wanted to sing that song or if it was forced on him.

[Callum]

Anyone else think Cass sounds like a dying llama? Fuck, I can't stand her voice. Maybe it's the pitch. Ugh...I tuned in tonight to see how the finals were going to be, but I'm thankful for tuning out way back when.

[Lefty]

Thanks guys, I don't even have to tune even the last 5 minutes in

That they didn't castrate and eliminate the one tone asshole of a

Wannabe Trappist Monk/Tibetan llama Lama.

[eastofeden]

DAMN! I wish we had Ruth Brown...from the UK's Voice...

[maxpowr9]

Calling it tonight...

1. Cassadee Pope
2. Terry McDermott
3. Nicholas David

[Wcw10891]

i agree, i dont see cassadee not winning, shes consitently in the top of itunes, while terry and nicolas havent been, also the judges seem to love her as well.

[maxpowr9]

I was right. A tad anti-climatic but I hope the other 2 get record deals also.

[BetinaNungging]

congrats Team Blake

so sad Xtina n Cee Lo go for the next season

The Voice never be the same without them and the original chemistry
