  • Judges' Comments

    • Randy: "I thought it started a little bit rough, but by the middle of the song you picked it up and I started believing you. It was pretty good."
    • Paula: "This was one of your strongest performances. You seem so comfortable, your voice seems so strong and rich. You were confident, I loved it."
    • Simon: "The is the point where I loose my season pass to Dollywood because I didn't like that at all. It sounded like the same song as before, I don't think this music suits you well. If this had been the first time I had seen you I wouldn't get it."
