Anna’s brought tears to my eyes and knowing just how real this song is to her makes it that much more impactful. Her and Ryleigh both have gotten better with each round IMO

Kyndal is one of my favorite contestants of all time but this was her weakest performance no question (even without the voice crack). It’s was fine but nothing special. The only problem at all with Cam and Emma’s performance was Emma’s stage presence IMO. It was done very well.

Ariana on the show is gonna give me Christina vibes (in a good way ofc). This also is prob the closest we’ve come to overthrow Blake’s voting advantage because again, arianators are insane

Based on artistry and potential for improvement: Madison Marigold James Tutson Kaitlyn Myers Almond&Olive Tyler Kohrs Charlotte Boyer Kaitlyn vs Charlotte Madison vs James Almond&Olive vs Tyler Kohrs (could go either way)

I liked that addition in S16 but even in that season they still had 6 from the BA so I figured I’d start there.

I’ll be updating this with each round of the pre-lives (like the S16 format) Which 6 of the 11 no-chair turners would you choose for the comeback stage if it was in season 20? Madison Curbelo - “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” Madison Marigold - “If the World Was Ending” Yellsmiles - “Midnight Sky” James Tutson - “Beyond” Jesse Desorcy - “Dust on the Bottle” Kaitlyn Myers - “If You Really Love Me” Almond&Olive - “Wildflowers” Tyler Kohrs - “More Hearts Than Mine” Nadianicole - “I Wanna Be Down” Charlotte Boyer - “Love Is a Losing Game” Connor Snow - “This City” *Disclaimer: I didn’t really like the comeback stage and I’d rather these artists just come back and turn a chair so it’s a good thing this is hypothetical*

Cecily Hennigan (should have won her battle) Kyndal Inskeep (so much more potential than her playoffs performance), and Tayler Green (should have won her knockout).

I'm interpreting this as battle pairings with the artists who would be on my team: My advisor would be Maggie Rogers Anna Grace vs Emma Caroline - "You should be sad" by Halsey (I think this could be done in a way that caters to both the indie pop and country lane). Dana Monique vs Deion Warren - "Preach" by John Legend Cam Anthony vs Ryleigh Modig - "Moonlight" by Ariana Grande Carolina Rial vs Ciana Pelekai - "What Other People Say" by Demi Lovato and Sam Fischer Gihanna Zoe vs Halley Greg - "Love You For a Long Time" by Maggie Rogers (idk I couldn't decide on a song choice that I really loved but this would work and be something the show hasn't seen). Lindsay Joan vs Raine Stern - "Hit Me With Your Best Shot" - Pat Benatar

I think this would work best as a battle rather a solo performance because of the overlapping lines in the chorus.

Kelly should just have her whole team on her talk show one by one and sing a duet with a different team member each week. If only

Most of the male country singers (not all though because some of them I just think are genuinely overhyped. But some are good vocalists who are just in a genre I don’t enjoy).

I just meant for the sake of the storyline it would be even cooler if she turned it around mid-lives like that (kinda how Jim Ranger surpassed Ian Flanigan last season).

Rachel is not my favorite contestant this season (or least favorite), but out of everyone she’s the one I want to see win this season. I don’t know how likely that is, but just imagine the story it would be: A one-chair-turner with much room for improvement in the blinds takes Nick’s coaching and makes great strides in the battles and knockouts (defeating a strong contestant in the KO, at that), to eventually be saved by Nick in the playoffs (hopefully). From there, I’d love to see her shine even more, enough to get the PV into the finale and win the show. It would be Nick’s first win and not another male bro country artist. As much as I prefer many contestants to Rachel, I want this win for her the most. (Similarly to how DeSz was my fav finalist but I’m glad Carter won).

Which round do you enjoy/look forward to the most each season? Discuss?

To his credit, he's very limited in his genre in finding songs that appeal to the masses. Not that that's much of an excuse but I'm sure it is harder to find songs. I'd love to see an opera singer that is given creative songs in that genre and also not turned into a country singer (*cough, cough* Mandi Thomas)

omg thank you I've been confused as to what TPTB and minivan meant but I was too afraid to ask lmaoooooo

For example, Cali Wilson BA: "Dreams" - Fleetwood Mac Top 13 IS: "The Chain" - Fleetwood Mac Ryan Gallagher BA: "The Prayer" - Celine Dion, Andrea Bocelli KO: "Time to Say Goodbye" - Andrea Bocelli

I wasn’t in love with Devan Blake Jones’s audition, but it’s by FAR the best performance of that song that I’ve seen on this show (the only others I know of being Tamara v. Olivia and Ruby G’s BA)

Lmao How did I not notice I left that out

(using a format like S15 because I picked 12 instead of 10) Blinds: Kelsie Watts Julia Cooper Allegra Miles Kyndal Inskeep Maelyn Jarmon The Bundys Cecily Hennigan Kennedy Holmes Brynn Cartelli Addison Agen Darby Walker Korin Bukowski Battles: (giving myself two saves instead of steals) Allegra Miles vs Addison Agen: "Love Me Anyway" - P!nk feat. Chris Stapleton Julia Cooper vs Darby Walker: "Pierre" - Ryn Weaver Brynn Cartelli vs Kennedy Holmes: "Walk Away" - Kelly Clarkson Maelyn Jarmon vs Cecily Hennigan: "Dreams" - The Cranberries Kyndal Inskeep vs The Bundys: "Landslide" or "Don't Stop" - Fleetwood Mac Kelsie Watts vs Korin Bukowski: "Girl with One Eye" Ideally most would be stolen but I saved The Bundys and Korin because I have more ideas for them. Knockouts: Korin Bukowski - "All I Want" vs Kyndal Inskeep - "Elastic Heart" Allegra Miles - "Chandelier" vs Brynn Cartelli - "Here Comes Goodbye" Kelsie Watts - "The Joke" (her original song choice) vs The Bundys - "The Letter" Maelyn Jarmon - "Mad World" vs Julia Cooper - "wish you were gay" Playoffs PV: Maelyn Jarmon - "Fallingwater" PV: Allegra Miles - "New York State of Mind" CS: Julia Cooper - "Hands to Myself" (tough choice but this performance would have deserved it) Eliminated: Korin Bukowski - "Adia", Kyndal Inskeep - "10,000 Hours", Kelsie Watts - ??? Live Shows: Maelyn: wins the show as she should Allegra: probably eliminated in the semifinals, maybe in the finale Julia: hopefully would have made the semifinals but idk because she was the coach's save Other people I would have turned for: Zan Fiskum Toneisha Harris Joana Martinez Lisa Ramey Jackie Foster Chloe Kohanski Alisan Porter

That's fair. The only reason she might pick Cedrice is because she's so unique. Also imo Kelly didn't need two non-country artists to turn into country artists.

What if Seasons 16, 18, & 19 had each coach with 3 artists in the lives? S16 Playoff Results: (really the question we should be asking is if S16 had knockouts but anyway) Team Adam PV: Mari Jones PV: Domenic Haynes? idk CS: idk but prob not Betsy because she was a steal, although she would make for a more diverse team. Team Kelly PV: Rod Stokes PV: Jej Vinson CS: Presley Tennant Team Legend PV: Maelyn Jarmon PV: Shawn Sounds CS: Celia Babini (because of her PO performance, but I would've loved to see Lisa Ramey in the lives) S18 Playoff Results: Team Kelly: PV: Megan Danielle PV: Micah Iverson CS: Cedrice or Mandi Thomas (honestly could go either way) Team Nick PV: Thunderstorm Artis PV: Allegra Miles CS: Arei Moon Team Legend PV: CammWess PV: Zan Fiskum CS: Mandi Castillo Team Blake PV: Todd Tilghman PV: Toneisha Harris CS: Joanna Serenko S19 Playoff Results: Team Kelly (she would have had such a well-rounded top 3) PV: DeSz PV: Cami Clune CS: Tanner Gomes (but maybe switch Tanner and Cami idrk) Team Gwen PV: Carter Rubin PV: Payge Turner CS: Ben Allen Team Legend PV: John Holiday PV: Tamara Jade CS: Bailey Rae Team Blake PV: Ian Flanigan PV: Jim Ranger CS: Worth the Wait (but he should have chosen Taryn Papa)

Celia Babini is CEO of this company. Her blind was amazing. Her battle was good but imo Karly won that and if it wasn't for Celia being a 4CT, I think Adam would have chosen Karly. Crossbattles were a mess and I think we all saw hope with her being on John's team in the playoffs. The Chain was a good performance and the closest she got to the level she was at in her audition but clearly John couldn't save her completely because Shallow was just as bad as A Thousand Years.

Lynnea is proof that S15's comeback stage worked. S16 though is a very different story...

YES Korin Bukowski is probably in my top 3 favorite contestants of all time.
