Almost all of the Comeback Stage performances belong in this thread. That was a failed experiment. 

[Hamza Tufail]

There are some of the bad performances that I remember

 

* Spectrum _ Amanda Brown

* Dog Days Are Over _ Caroline pennel 

* Holding Back The years _ Luke Wade 

* Dream On _ Koryn Hawthorne

* Ghoost _ Barret Baber ( he is on my top 20 fav contestants list , but this performance was his weakest and even though I wanted him to make it to finale I was really surprised that Amy and Shelby were instant eliminations and he made it via PV )

* Chandelier _ Janice Freeman

* Every Time I Roll The Dice _ Michael Lee

* That's What I Like _ DeAndre

* God Bless The USA _ Gyth Rigdon ( I really like him and I think he is one of the best country vocalist , but this was his weakest performance and this and his finale performances really lessened his chances , If he managed to do what he did in Audition , battle , CB and live playoffs I think he would've won cz he was minivan's fav )

* Caribean Queen _ Shane Q 

* All My Life _ Mike Jerel 

* Overjoyed _ Allegra Miles

Hi just here to mention something no one asked for - Allegra actually wanted to sing "River" iirc but they didn't let her. She was give exactly one night to memorize the lyrics to this song and perform, and it wasn't the best that she could've done (but she wasn't outvoting TStorm in any way). This wasn't I think comparable to "Caribbean Queen," but it definitely wasn't on par with how she'd normally do imo

I think she was not, but the song was just TOO big for her. I mean yeah, she hitted the notes on Dream On, but Spectrum was on a different level, it was like high note after high note. She was also visibly uncomfortable with that performance That song should never be done again on live performances like this. But yeah, thanks for reminding me, this is like the worst performance of hers ever.

Here's one I'm surprised has never been mentioned. Does IDF have an unpopular opinion on it, or was it so bad that everyone deliberately forgot about it?

 

Anyway, I give to you, Jeremiah Miller's Knockout Performance: https://youtu.be/U65K3SlYMRQ

 

To this day, I don't understand why it couldn't have been Alexandra Joyce foddering it up for Noah, at least from the Studio Recordings, her voice sounds far more pleasant than Jeremiah's.

No mention of Treeva Gibson's "Chasing Pacements" performance in season eight's Knockouts?  She was nervous, and it showed.  So much so, Rob Taylor won by pretty much default.  I'm pretty sure that Christina wanted to take him through, anyway, but that made it easier.

[sydneysam]

I love Claire DeJean (S15) (There's Nothing Holding Me Back) but her KO performance was a disappointment. Also, Katrina Cain (S15) KO (Don't Let Me Down) performance.

 

Maya Smith's KO (No One) was just so bad too.

Reagan James' attempt to make Iggy Azaela's "Fancy" a bubblegum pop song was peak cringe. It was an obvious bussing attempt! 

[peachfuz]

Bit of a thread revival, but I'd like to add a few from Seasons 19 and 20 to the mix!

– Jus Jon - "Finesse"

– Connor Christian - "Youngblood"

– Andrew Marshall - "Put Your Records On"

[Cookie73]

I’m going to try to give at least one per season (and IS performances are disqualified because so many are bad)

Some seasons are obviously harder to find the worst performances than others 

 

S20- Andrew Marshall “Put Your Records On”

S19- Tanner Gomes “Lovin on You”

S18- Levi vs Anders “Counting Stars”, Tate Brusa “The Scientist”

S17- Shane Q “Caribbean Queen”

S16- Celia Babini “A Thousand Years”, Selkii “Torn”, Carter Lloyd Horne “Take Me to Church”

S15- Ayanna Jahnee “No Tears Left to Cry”

S14- Christiana Danielle “Umbrella”, Miya Bass “Castle on the Hill”

S13- Jeremiah Miller “Sorry”, Esera Tuaolo “How Do I Live”

S12- Mark Isaiah “Sign of the Times”

S11- Dave Moisan “Like I Can”, Courtney Harrell “If I Could Turn Back Time”

S10- Nick Hagelin “Your Body is a Wonderland”

S9- Braiden Sunshine “Radioactive”

S7- Ryan Sill “Ordinary World”

S5- Nic Hawk “Blurred Lines”

S2- Erin Martin “Walk Like an Egyptian”

The fact that we could have had Savanna slaying "Barracuda", and instead, we got this, is... something else.

Outside of the fact that I completely despise the idea of this thread - Unpop, but this performance wasn’t even bad.

I re-listened, ok, not bad, just extremely meh, that song choice didn't do him any favors. 

 

I still think Savanna should have won that 4wko, tho. 

[VoiceFan!]

S18: Levi vs Jamal- Levi was great here but Jamal was very inconsistent and all over the place…LITERALLY

 

S19: No terrible performances here, but JusJon’s run and Tanner Gomes’ PO week weren’t it.

 

S20: Hmmm…maybe Connor’s Youngblood or Devan/Andrew’s PO performances. 

[rp3598]

Caroline Sky’s At Last and both of Jake Haldenvang’s live shows were hard to listen to

Not me replying to a comment from almost a year ago, but yeah. Some Florence songs are just incredibly difficult to sing. You don't just need to be able to hit the notes, but to have the stamina to hit them over, and over, and over again.

I regret almost all of my posts from that time idk why 

 

but yeah you hit the nail on the head with that. I wonder if someone will sing some Florence song again on the show

Ryleigh Plank
