I have given up on American Idol 3 seasons ago. It does not have the charm anymore and I just have this nagging feeling that it's rigged or something. I am not saying that it is, it's just my gut-feel.
I live The Voice better amongst the other singing competition shows we have these days. At least in The Voice, contestants are chosen not by their looks when they audition but with their God-given talent in singing; hence the title of the show. The judges don't see them until they turn their chairs to see who's singing. So, contestants make their impression from the sound of their voice and that's more hard to do because you have to convince a judge to make him or her turn to you.
I have missed season one so I am following the succeeding seasons. This season 3, the remaining 4 contestants, namely: Terry McDermott, Cassadee Pope, Nicholas David and Trevin Hunte.
The performance few nights ago was so intense. My favorite is Terry, Trevin and Cassedee who took the stage and nailed their songs like a pro! But I say, Terry is so remarkable on his rendition of Journey's I Want To Know What Love Is. He sang it bare with only a piano and a cello as accompaniment. In his rehearsal, while jamming with the band with audio technica, guitars, piano and drums, his coach Blake Shelton decided to make him sing without the accompaniment of the other band instruments. It would bring out the passion and tenderness of his voice. Terry even quipped that in that arrangement, there was nowhere to hide. He was out in the open. Come singing night, he seriouly nailed it and I had goose-bumps. His voice is simply on the spot.
Trevin is another favorite of mine. He took the stage and owned it when he sang Jennifer Hudson's version of the song, And I Am Telling You. Oh my, he has a natural high-pitch voice and I am sure that he made the 2 Jennifers who sang that song very, very proud. America is proud of him.
Cassadee is another show stealer with her rendition of I'm With You is so amazing. I wish I have a voice like hers. She just soars and soars and soars!
Now, I don't care who will win because 3 of my bets are in the top 4. Go guys!!!

I am rooting for Blake's team, Cassadee and Terry, I think they're the best. Now if I have to pick, I want Terry to win because he has a family and Cassadee is still young so she has a lot of opportunities.
ReplyDeleteI don't watch TV as much I did before.Too many things to do,too little time
ReplyDeleteI've been following The voice since the auditions, but now I lost track because of so much work. I wish to see the finals so that I would know who will win.
ReplyDeleteI don't have the time more to follow such talent shows. But based on your input, I believe The Voice is much better than AI.
ReplyDeleteI never really had the chance to watch the show and it was only about a Filipina contestant that it was made Popular in the PH.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have the luxury of time to watch this show. I'd love to see fresh talents making it big in the music scene one day. I hope the guys you've been rooting for will make it.
ReplyDeletei have not seen the Voice yet, maybe, when I get the chance to see it, I may forget about ai and x-factor too, though, i also have lost interest in ai :)
ReplyDeletei don't want TV nowadays because of my hectic sched at work, school and at home taking care of my little Destine.
ReplyDeletei am with you, i also lost the enthusiasm in watching AI. i think too it has lost its charm. i have yet to watch The Voice though.
ReplyDeletewahh i am not familiar, I am really not into singing contest. Sigh! But I like music though. This is so unique though because as you said they could not see the contestant but its only their voice.
ReplyDeleteI came across that show before. I like to watch talent search shows like that. Just recently, XFactor UK declared its' 2012 winner. In few months time British Got Talent will air again.
ReplyDeleteI have been a huge fan of The Voice eversince it was aired. I love the show's format and the judges esp. ADAM LEVINE my ex boyfriend ;)I love Cassadee and Trevin too
ReplyDeletethanks for sharing a cool update about the show... haven't watched in since been busy. also got into watching xfactor instead.. ehehe...
ReplyDeletecheers for sharing! :)
I don't watch The Voice.. Even American Idol.. I think the only talent search shows I watch are, AGT and ABDC..
