Haley Scarnato's in the audience. Cool.
2. Blake
Song: "You Should be Dancing"
Me: Somebody decided to pull out his Fischer Price tape recorder and make another custom beatbox version of an old song. This week, however, it didn't work as well, as it appeared like Blake was merely compensating for his vocal shortcomings rather than being innovative or making a song his own. The song started off corny, like a bad Michael Jackson impersonator, and just seemed desperate once the beatboxing came on.
Randy: "Tonight for me, dawg, it really didn't work."
Paula: "Nobody can do what you do and that's great."
Simon: "I thought it was absolutely terrible."
Score: 6/10
3. LaKisha
Song: "Stayin' Alive"
Me: After a refreshing week of surprising creativity, we're back to LaKisha's lackluster song choices and disappointing vocals. Much like her Fantasia/Carrie Underwood weeks, LaKisha's first performance suggested she didn't put any effort into customizing her time on stage. Plus, she slowed down the tempo so much that the song lost its flavor. She looked uncomfortable, sounded mediocre and put herself in harm's way.
Randy: "That was weird for me...It wasn't working, man."
Paula: "Eh."
Simon: "No kiss tonight, baby. We're back to the shouting again."
Score: 5/10
