I’m just ranking what I think of the song choices here. I don’t really care who advances, so there’s no bias.
1. Ricky - The best song choice, and he’ll kill it. He might be the frontrunner after tonight.
2. Jake - Smart choice with potential crossover appeal. Don’t butcher it, though.
3. Rose - I feel like I’ve heard enough versions of this, but the audience likes this song. It’s better than the typical diva song contestants like her usually get.
4. Katie - I hate this song, but I guess it will appeal to her target audience? She’ll probably perform it very well, and have a new pair of funky glasses.
5. Kat - Zzzzzzz. She needed a Christian song to have a good chance.
6. Hello Sunday - I didn’t even listen, but it can’t be worse than the two below it.
7. Marybeth - Everyone will be comparing her performance with Carrie’s version. This almost never works.
8. Will - GTFO
