4. Mandi Castillo - My expectations were sky-high, but this was just good. B+

1 Chair or not... quite understandable at this point, but, anyway, my money is on Kailey.  And Cam gets a vote of approval, as well.  Also, Mandi.  Brittney was ok, too.

Yes, we all know I 'm not good at rating.  But, anyway, those were the ones that stood out, for me.

Some highs tonight combined with some iffy/low performances. Looking forward to battles!

1. Kailey Abel (9.5/10) - I'm a sucker for rasp and she brought something absolutely special to the song. Easily one of the most surprising auditions of the season. These are the kinds of auditions that I look forward to.

2. Mandi Castillo (9/10) - Gorgeous tone, beautifully done. I'll always be a little bit biased towards Spanish singers, but Mandi was truly great tonight! Looking forward to what she does next! Hope John treats her right.

3. Cedrice (9/10) - Simple and stunning. She made a memorable first impression with this song without doing too much. She would've been an easy four chair turn, clearly. I wouldn't be surprised to see another Chris Blue situation on our hands with her...

4. Micah Iverson (8/10) - A good audition but not what I would've chosen for someone with his voice. Questionable coach decision here as well. Nick probably would've been a wiser decision genre-wise, but we'll see how Kelly does.

5. Gigi Hess (7.5/10) - Some good moments in here, but the performance didn't really reach a "WOW" level for me. Glad she got her chair turn so she can improve with Kelly.

6. Kevin Farris (7.5/10) - On paper, I should love this audition a lot more than I did. It's missing something that I can't quite point out. He's good and I'm glad he got a chair turn, but I don't feel the need to listen to this again. lol at him not sharing the mic with Nick properly though.

7. Cam Spinks (7.5/10) - Not a performance I need to hear again just based on personal preference, but he did well with it.

8. Brittney Allen (7.5/10) - I do like her but vocally I'm not sure she's at the level where she compete with the others in the competition. I'm glad she got this rotten song choice out of the way early though.

9. Anders Drerup (6.5/10) - I'm all for switching up an overdone song, but this wasn't very impressive. He didn't sound bad, but I don't necessarily think this warranted a chair turn.

 

Tracey Preston (3/10) - Good moments, iffy moments, but definitely messy/inconsistent.

Tyrone Perkins (3/10) - If I'm just trying to chill at a lounge? Absolutely, he's good. For this competition, he's just not right.

Allison Grace (1.5/10) - Disliked this from the first note. And no, she didn't recover at all, Blake.

Kailey Abel (I know I’m in the minority but she was amazing)

Lol what? Everyone in this thread has ranked her first. Definitely not in the minority.

 

I have high hopes for her. Her voice is very unique. I feel like things could easily go left for her if she had another coach so I am glad she is with Blake.

I was just going off of what I saw in the discussion thread...also I was the first reply to this thread, so I haven’t seen everyone else’s rankings as well. 

 

I agree with the second part of your post though.
