[Raphy]

1. Casey Bishop - “House of the Rising Sun” (The Animals) - CHILLS!!

2. Madison Watkins - “Hotline Bling” (Drake) - A surprise, she took a song that isn't the best to sing and she made it work, and also killed it!

3. Ava August - “Love of My Life” (Queen) - She's back on track!

4. Hunter Metts - “I Can’t Make You Love Me” (Bonnie Raitt) - His tone is amazing, I'm getting Trent vibes.

5. Beane - “Grow As We Go” (Ben Platt) - His best vocal yet.

6. Willie Spence - “Diamonds” (Rihanna) - Not a stand out like Sunday night.

7. Alanis Sophia - “Heart Attack” (Demi Lovato) - Better than the night before, but what happened to her I was hoping to see more flawless performances like her Alanis Morissette showstopper round slayage.  

8. Graham DeFranco - “Cover Me Up” (Jason Isbell) - I enjoyed his tone.

9. Grace Kinstler - “Dangerous Woman” (Ariana Grande) - I expect more.

10. Caleb Kennedy - “Nowhere” (Caleb Kennedy)  

11. Chayce Beckham - “What Brings Life Also Kills” (Kolton Moore & The Clever Few) - Nope.

12. Colin Jamison - “Waves” (Dean Lewis)

13. Deshawn Goncalves - “Higher Ground” (Stevie Wonder) - Karaoke 101.

14. Alyssa Wray - “Greatest Love of All” (Whitney Houston) - She stunk up the place. 

15. Cassandra Coleman - “Light On” (Maggie Rogers) - Was it the nerves, she pulled a Hannah. She's lucky this wasn't a voting round.

Here’s my rankings of the Top 15:

 

1.  Casey — what a way to celebrate getting into the Top 12!
2.  Willie — best guy of the night but one girl outshone him.
3.  Ava — she recovered nicely from her weakest performance.
4.  Grace — probably her best pop performance!
5.  Madison — this is how you sing for your life!
6.  Beane — he sang for his life and saved himself.  But not for long.
7.  Hunter — I love this song and I think that this was his best performance.
8.  Graham — his best performance.  Alas, it was too late.
9.  Chayce — good but not really great.
10.  DeShawn — somewhat karaoke but at least he had energy.
11.  Alyssa — I love her but her song choice was so predictable!  She sang it very well though.
12.  Caleb — the weakest of the Top 12, but good enough to move on.
13.  Colin — good but nowhere near good enough to move on.
14.  Cassandra — she seems to be getting worse due to nerves.
15.  Alanis — sigh.  She blew her chances with her screechy performance.
