Thoughts:
- Nathan killed it once again. This man is devouring the competition everytime he steps on that stage. Probably the biggest upward trajectory I´ve ever seen on the show. He deserves the win.
- Karen killed that as well. If there was any doubt about her spot in the finale, this sealed it. Fantastic vocal. She could very well win too.
- On another season, Josh would be the absolute frontrunner with almost 0 chance to be beaten. Dude can sing live and is likable. But this is a strong, competitive season, and at this point, I think Nathan and Karen are a bit ahead of him right now, but we´ll see.
- I think Madison and Asher will fight for that last PV. The numbers apparently are vying for Asher but I´m not fully convinced explicitly based on last night. I think Madison still has an edge, but we´ll see. I think both would deserve it, and even if he misses PV, Asher is getting to the finale through the save.
- Team Chance? I wouldn´t 100% count them out, especially Serenity. We´ve had weird shit happen before.
- The only contestant that I don´t feel has much of a shot is Bryan, sadly. I think he´s done.

Asher fully caught up to Karen in reacts. And Tae passed up Nathan in.
Team Chance is the bottom two. If this reflects the actual voting, then Maddi and Serenity are done.
As of writing this, Nathan has been the most consistent singer from start to finish imo. I don't think I've heard a bad note come out of this man's mouth yet, and that's while delivering some of the best performances every round. Especially from playoffs until now, the level of his performances have been nearly unmatched this season.
Also, can we talk about his stage presence? It's so damn smooth. Some of the best we've had in recent seasons.
