Mistake006 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 What were the worst songs chosen for contestants by coaches, producers, or theirselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistake006 Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) I'd have to give it to this one. DOMO did great, but poor Cody looked so awkward up there how he won is beyond me. CeeLo's song choices and pairings were always so strange Edited July 20, 2021 by Mistake006 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VintageVoice Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Shane Q’s top 10 performance easily is the worst in recent seasons - for y’all’s eardrum’s sakes I refuse to link it, but if you know, you know. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookie73 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Shane Q- Caribbean Queen (nobody would do well on this song) Todd Michael Hall- Somebody to Love (Why give an 80s rocker One Republic?) Dave Moisan- Like I Can (Sam Smith for an indie guy...?) Will add more later but these are the first to come to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneysam Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Since I just saw this on the other thread.. Spectrum (Florence + The Machine) for Amanda (S3) lmao. That's just a song that's so tough to nail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie73 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Avery Wilson- Yeah 3x (He could have easily made it far in the Lives but that song choice prevented him from going there. Looking at his body of work, he definitely had finale potential) Judith Hill- #thatpower (Another finale contender eliminated because of a terrible song choice) Pete Mroz- Speechless (It felt like this was a dare) Shawn Sounds- That’s What I Like (This song destroyed his chances of making the finale after two great Live performances in a row) Daniel Passino- Uptown Funk (This song is already monotonous, but this rendition also had no funk) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVoiceFan2 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Raine Stern and Andrew Marshall - Adore You Claire DeJean - There's Nothing Holding Me Back (many more but these are the first two that came to mind, and I'm still pissed at these ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just a song that's so tough to nail One of my favorite songs (the original, although the Calvin Harris mix that Amanda's version is based off of is great, too). Such a tough one. I don't think Amanda totally flopped, but it was too big of a task even for her. If any contestant wants to come on the show and actually nail this just lemme know so I can start stanning now tbh. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misirlou Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 "Beyond" by Leon Bridges for Sid. The guy is made for blues and smokey jazz, come on. And if you wanted him to sing Leon Bridges, there´s tons of soulful, bluesy songs to choose, why give him his poppiest one? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember a source said she was on par / better than Abby (don't remember which), but also sometimes sources are iffy so idk... All I know is that what aired was rough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VintageVoice Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 “It’s Time” is one of those songs where if you’re not Dan Reynolds, don’t even f***ing try to tackle it - it is deceptively tricky vocally. There’s a reason besides the massive popularity of the songs that “Radioactive” and “Demons” were/are two of the go-to songs from Imagine Dragons’ discography that people cover. It’s a great song to get the crowd pumped, though (and was a highlight of getting to see the band in concert a few years back, which was an 11/10 concert experience all around). Going back on topic, here’s another one - Joana Martinez on “Somebody That I Used To Know.” Great song, but I don’t think we’ve seen someone do a successful solo cover of it yet on the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misirlou Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I´m not an Imagine Dragons fan (though I like "Demons"), but yeah, I´d say, stay away from them as much as possible on the show unless you can handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
