Judges' Comments
- Randy: "It's like watching a concert. It was good but an interesting song choice as it didn't show off your vocals."
- Paula: "I love that there were a few notes off so we all know that you're not perfect. In that imperfection though, you still are perfect."
- Simon: "It wasn't as good as last week. Be careful, it's getting a little bit gloomy. You don't have to keep singing sad songs."
