Although I believe that he has fine songwriting skills, his vocal skills definitely lacked for me.

Maybe having her say that she has conservative values isn't so bad, as long as she doesn't go so far as to suggest that she hates gay people, abortion and teaching people about Black history. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was kinda the trailblaizer for "alternative/soft voice" singing in these shows. We would see this genre and singing style become more popular in the music industry in late 2019 and 2020 with Billie Eillish's debut album and Taylor Swift's folklore, to name a few. If Alejandro went on Idol anytime AFTER Season 17 I honestly think he would've won. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m1key Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 (edited) Some of my premier thoughts! - Lucy's edit felt rather negative and she didn't get the level of praise as I was expecting That being said I think she will have a massive growth arc during Hollywood and she will be fine by Hawaii/live shows. - The Megan/Lauren Daigle interaction was really random. I am wondering if it was planned in advance to promote Megan in some way, shape, or form, or if it was genuinely something last minute that worked out - Tyson getting the Platinum Ticket is interesting. I knew he was good pre-season, but not as good as his audition was! Curious to see how far he will be able to go (and also wondering who got the Platinum Tickets for New Orleans and Nashville!) - All of the men got great edits and we should be scared Edited February 20, 2023 by m1key 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelaKD Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 The audition premiere was extremely T26 heavy. We saw 8 of them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrie_On Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 My rankings of the 8 semifinalists we saw tonight… 1. Tyson - Amazing voice. So talented and someone who I think can hold up to the old-school Idol talents. He will be around for a long time. 2. Iam - I like him much more than I thought I would. A nice voice for easy listening but he can also tell a story. 3. Collin - Yeah, I know. Another country WGWG, but I think he has a strong voice that will soar in the live shows. 4. Zachariah - I love that he’s a fun contestant with a really good voice. Cameron could’ve been that last season but didn’t take it seriously enough. I’m hoping this guy decides to show off his strong voice in a few serious performances as well. 5. Lucy - A bit disappointed by her audition. She sounded good but I thought she’d be more prepared and like a seasoned pro. Im surprised that she needed so much coaching. Hopefully she gets it together in Hollywood because her voice is very strong. I’d love to hear her singing “Fast Car” by Tracy Chapman. 6. Megan - I loved her on The Voice but this wasn’t her best vocal. She’s really got to pick songs that suit her. 7. Michael - A bit too vanilla for me right now. Good voice but not a standout one. 8. Haven - I’m sure she’ll be excellent in a few years but she had some rough moments in this audition. She’s got huge potential but is underbaked right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenboy123 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 (edited) I didn’t watch the Voice, but Ive heard a lot about Megan …I can already tell she’s someone I’m not going to like…they are going to edit her as the highly Conservative Christian girl (which I’m pretty sure she is) she’s already mentioning God every minute…I really hope she doesn’t start sharing her political opinions… Edited February 20, 2023 by kenboy123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
