Carrie_On Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 It seems like Marybeth is playing to win. I’m racking my brain over some of these song choices lol. Surprised Elise isn’t the one doing “Emotions”. She’s covered it a lot and went viral on TikTok. Maybe her and Olivia got mixed up? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m1key Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 (edited) Pjae has the most "wtf" song choice I've seen in a while tbh. It will be interesting to see how they arrange it... Lucy, Nutsa, and Kaerya sound like they got perfect songs for their voices. Haven, Malik, and Elise's songs sound like bussings Edited February 12, 2023 by m1key Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarmenSandiego Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) How is "Edge of Seventeen" for Wé's voice? Is it perfect for her as well? Just wanted to add that I listened to "Heart Like a Truck" and that seems like a very good song choice for a country singer like Marybeth.

I mean I'm definetly not a reliable source who should he trusted with saying what is perfect and what isn't That being said I think she will definitely do well with it! It is just a really overdone song and she will have to add her own flare to it (which she likely will) to help make her rendition memorable! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrie_On Posted February 14, 2023 Share Posted February 14, 2023 Olivia sounds great until that high note lol. Elise should’ve sang Emotions instead. She can hit the whistle note with ease. Wé sounds incredible. Same with Nutsa, although a bit OTT. She’s a great stage performer. Paige sounds really good too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
