Critiques:
Unplugged Performances -
Lift Me Up - Christina Aguilera:
Wow, a beautiful performance from you Christina. Let me just say, I am SO proud of you and what you have accomplished throughout this competition. Whatever the result is tonight, just remember that you are an amazing vocalist and I am honored to be your coach this season! Great vocal performance!
Fix A Heart - Demi Lovato:
Demi! You definitely fixed my heart :) Let me be honest with you, near the early stages of the competition, I didn't think you had the best song choices and I thought you weren't going to last long because of that. BUT you have proved time and time why you deserve to be here and you are such an amazing vocal performer. This literally melted my heart, your voice is so heavenly.
Talking To The Moon - Madilyn Bailey:
Great performance Madilyn! :) You are definitely an underdog in this competition. A lot of contestants didn't think that you were threat and they thought they could just slip by you and make it as far as you have, now you can laugh at them because you are in the Top 4 of 20 other contestants in this competition PLUS the other auditioners. You are giving winning caliber performances recently and I really like it!
Stand Up For Love - Jessica Sanchez:
Jess, I don't understand how your voice is so mature at such a young age. It literally doesn't make sense, you have one of the biggest vocals and best vocals in this competition and you have developed so much throughout this competition, you are such an amazing performer. Great performance!
"Song To Get Me To Finale" Performance -
Let There Be Love - Christina Aguilera:
Such an upbeat performance from you, great job! This is a song that everyone gets up and dances to. This is definitely a final caliber performance, your vocals were sharp and the way you held those notes in the chorus were perfect!
Made In The USA - Demi Lovato:
Another really upbeat performance! The fans were literally all over you, the girls love you and I think you could get the tengaged audience to vote for you if you make it through! Your just that amazing of a performer! You are a great competitor!
Radioactive - Madilyn Bailey:
I guess everybody's doing upbeat performances for their semi final song! haha, but really, you need to give yourself credit Madilyn. You have made it so far into the competition and most people doubted you, some people thought that you were one of the weakest in the competition because you weren't a "big name" like the others but the underdogs are always capable of pulling an upset.
Listen - Jessica Sanchez:
Perfect way to end the night, your vocals are so strong even if the video quality isn't! Aha, it was really a good performance! You have the vocal range that most contestants dreamed to have and it really is one of a kind! You are a one of a kind contestant and you have been doing such an amazing job in this competition, such a big semi final performance!
Alright well the critiques are now done!
