Yeah, I´m not the biggest fan of the song as well. Link to post Share on other sites

Daillon 2,237 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 This might seem weird, but my biggest compaint about Ryan’s performance is that he was so calm lol. His low-energy movements and gestures didn’t go along with the song he was performing. Link to post Share on other sites

Gustavo527 479 Posted November 17, 2020 Share Posted November 17, 2020 Ok, since my comment about Ryan G got lost in the spoilers thread, i'm putting it on here once again: "If Ryan wasn't attractive, i'm pretty sure he wouldn't be receiving half of the hype he is actually getting. Even if he had the exactly same voice" Link to post Share on other sites

FloorWax 1,837 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Here's my UNPOPULAR opinion. Payge's blind > Her KO. There. I said it lmao. But that's not disregarding her amazing KO performance BTW, I just thought the song choice in the blinds was so perfect for her and obviously the low notes were insane.

His low-energy movements and gestures didn’t go along with the song he was performing. Agreed, your complaint does seem a bit weird. Ryan G's demeanor during the performance did come off more subdued than his normal intensity. Do you think the fact that his grandmother was dealing with covid-19 and then his mother (who was caring for his grandmother) was hospitalized for the coronavirus the day before the battle had any affect? However, having viewed a number of his performances, benefit concerts, etc. on YT and his home page, I think calm and collected is just his approach to performing. He simply is not IMO the fist-pumping, hip-hopping type of performer. I might even go so far as to proffer a possibly unpopular opinion that that was Ryan (albeit lower-energy than normal) in his excited state LOL. And a further unpopular opinion regarding the battle, a duet takes both singers to compliment each other, so perhaps Marisa was just too overbearing and aggressive. Both needed to blend...but Queen Celine's tweet heaped praise on their performance! Link to post Share on other sites

I don’t mind someone being calm and collected when performing (in fact I think it’s refreshing in a way) but in this particular song it just felt off imo (what you said about her mother might have something to with it so I guess I can’t complain if that’s the case) Edited November 21, 2020 by Daillon Link to post Share on other sites

While I do think Larriah was better, I disagree with a lot of people saying that she destroyed Carter. They were pretty even IMO, I just think Larriah conveyed the lyrics in a more mature way and connected more to the song, but vocally they were neck to neck. Which brings me to my unpopular opinion, Ryan G won his battle. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah lmao I love Larriah more than Carter but no, she did not destroyed Carter, people were overreacting . Carter might've lacked some maturity in his delivery of the song, but they are even when it comes to the vocal stuffs. Carter definitely have pipes and gorgeous tone, and deserves to be more appreciated. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Daillon 2,237 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 (edited) With all this talk about Reagan in the spoilers thread I have remembered something I wanted to post about her in this thread: Reagan is the worst female contestant to ever make the lives.
