VintageVoice Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Brittany’s song choice…oof. She did the best she could with it (and I actually kinda like how it sounds with a little texture added into it), but it wasn’t quite the right move here. Samuel, on the other hand… and I can live with Kelly sitting down since Blake stood up, which is way harder to get than a standing O from Kelly.

AngelaKD Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) John is SO animated this season. I’m starting to think he was medicated up until now. ETA: Unpop (so far). I thought Brittany took that. Samuel’s rasp started to sound gimmicky to me. He’s too reliant on it.

jayshon Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Ok after listening a second time Brittany wasnt HORRIBLE. She did what she could with the song honestly. Samuel was pretty good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, we’ll probably say good bye to him in the semis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree on Brittany taking it (but I admit as a Samuel fan I’m biased), but I agree that dialing back a bit on the rasp if he can would help Samuel out - if nothing else, it’d probably help protect his vocal cords a bit better to be slightly less reliant on it.

jayshon Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 If Jershika has A Change is Gonna Come I know her and Brittany beefing because that’s a perfect song for Brittany. If Brittany had that song, without a doubt would’ve ate Samuel uppp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie73 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Bad song choice for Brittany. This was a big letdown after her first two performances. Samuel took this, but I preferred his audition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe14 Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Meh...still trying to understand the Samuel hype. He has yet to really wow me. I felt the same about Holly, but then I finally understood after her knockout performance yesterday. Also felt the same about Corey until he did "Already Gone." Still waiting on that moment from Samuel. He's probably most likely to get John's PV, but I don't really know what to make of him beyond that. Lol at his rasp being a gimmick though That's clearly his voice. Not surprised by Brittany. She's lowkey always had trainwreck potential IMO. Her audition was a little questionable until she hit the high note three-quarters of the way into the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloorWax Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Honestly, Samuel was a tad underwhelming, and he's my snowflake. His audition was better than this. The emotion was there, but he could've done a lot more with the song. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’d been allowed to tamper with the arrangement a little more and make it more his own, I think I’d give it a 10 instead of something in the 9 range. Still a very solid job from him though.

This one was closer to an 8 for me even though I expected a 9 or above. In general, I think this song is like "Anyone". Lewis Capaldi attacks that chorus so hard and it doesn't make people's voices sound good when they try to imitate it.

Misirlou Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Honestly, disagree with y'all. Samuel brought it. The rasp didnt came to work in full action until the chorus. Meanwhile, he displayed a lovely control over his low notes, and it ended up showing more dynamics from him. Loved how he went up on the second chorus and how he believed what he was singing. I did slightly preferred the more artistic side of his blind, but this was a superior vocal, imo. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iloveadam Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Okay, I was pretty much looking forward to Samuel's knockout because I thought he could have had another shining moment with Bruises. BUT! Something was not right in that performance. It's like he was too calculated on singing every note and the emotion he tried to deliver felt hypocritical. I'm totally freaking shocked that the only I truly like so far is Joshua. R.I.P. the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorWax Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 From what I've seen, Arianators want Bella, Ryleigh, and Holly as Ariana's Top 3. That may just be what they're getting. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
