Judges' Comments
- Randy: "I don't know if it's your strongest performance, but I tell you what I like about you. I was sitting here imagining you at home practicing this as a kid thinking one day I'm going to make it and this is a dream come true for you. I love that you have all of this conviction and you gave a heartfelt performance. The dawg is a fan.
- Paula: "This is your niche picking songs where we can feel your heart. It's having that emotional connection that makes people fall in love with you."
- Simon: "I thought it was again, one of the best performances of the night. Brilliant choice of song three weeks running. It's believable. There's a difference between karaoke like we've seen tonight and actually making it believable and showcasing your talent."
