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'd rather get the battle eliminations as Comeback Stage contestants.

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

While we're on Lorde, how about "Green Light?"  I think a pop girl could pull it off.

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

Can't Kelly just have all the finalists so all the duets would be with her?

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).

How do you know that she will need the coach save? Maybe Rachel will get the PV and Dana will get the coach save? 

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?

I´m pretty sure y"all won´t remember him but Blaze Johnson in S8. His BA song was  "How To Save A Life" by The Fray and his KO song was "You Found Me" by the same band.

 

And his PO song was going to "Perfect", a symphonic version covered by....you´ll guess, Andrea Bocelli.

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)

For the S16 results, where's Team Blake?

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

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"

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

Blake would probably choose Joei over Joanna. Kelly would've probably chosen Mandi over Cedrice. 

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 Moorer's Top 13 performance, "Wolves."  I expected her to flame out immediately after winning the Comeback vote, but after that, I wanted her in the Top 11.

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

Korin Bukowski. All her performances in the pre-taped rounds are gold. 

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