• Judges' Comments

  • Randy: "For the last couple of weeks I kept saying that you are picking the the toughest songs. I like that you are bold and that you go for all of it every week. You did a good job on it all things considered."

  • Paula: "This week I think you've been extremely smart. When you are singing songs of someone unbelievably brilliant like Mariah. You picked a song that not many people know and you're not compared to it. It's good knowing how to change up your voice and use the beautiful soft part of your voice. Overall, tonight was unbelievably magical."

  • Simon: "Technically it was very good indeed. I'm not sure I would have chosen a song that not many people know about."
