Harry: We know that you're big and loud. We know you know your way around the blues scale. I would love it if you could sing something not loud. (audience boos)

Three things that haven't been mentioned in any of Caleb's intro packages:

1. He's a decent songwriter
2. He's a decent guitar player
3. He's got a nice, smooth voice for the blues, which I think he actually sounds better on than all the classic rock he's been doing on the show.

Caleb could make Harry happy (and maybe a lot of other people too) by performing his original song, "Down to the River" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyMXJM29XOw). Just sit quietly on a stool and accompany himself on the guitar.

Game. Set. Match.

This is the happiest day of my life! Thank you Jonny! I’ve had two wedding days, 4 kids’ births, and seen many seasons of American idol, but nothing bests being given an official AI Thread Chocolate Basket! So pretty I’m licking my ipad!

I’m here at my fashionable late time, during dinner because it’s hard to be a single mom, and I am so upset over Ft. Hood too. What other nation leaves its military unarmed on bases??

I confess to never having been much of a fan of Mr. Loaf. Heresy?

Jennnnna and Alex duet -— their voices sound so amateur compared to athe Voice contestants this week. Talent significantly less. Alex doesn’t seem to be able to fake “love” for jeeeeeena even for fame and fortune.

Sam has the looks but Harry is right - connect with one lucky girl in the audience and watch things change. Smile at someone. He needs to.

Jesse and Caleb, good match up - they are singing the Tom petty Stevie Nicks song. We used to sing “stop dragging my car around.” I was a huuuuge tom Petty fan. Still am.

Using subtitles right now, and they just put as part of the lyrics “I know you really want to tell me good buy” -— REALLY????? It’s a SHOPPING SONG?? Lol.

They do the song justice but you get the feeling Meat could bring more energy than in this duet.

Ugh, Urkel. I’m listening without watching that metallic little face. It sounds like a kid trying to sing. Pitchy and not really pleasant. No one would ever pay for this. Maybe pay to get her to stop.

Seriously, not looking at the TV is the best way to get an impression of the sound. And she doesn’t have it. She’s not much higher than mediocre. And you can hear the braces in her enunciation.

Jeeeena was ok. I like Adele’s version better. But nothing was as karaoke as Sam and Urkel. I listened without watching and said to my son, “wow, if you just listen, it sounds like two kids doing meh karaoke.” And he said, “Even watching, it’s like that.”

Wow, 24 commercial. The President is that guy who was stuck selling reverse mortgages. Finally a gig. William Devane? So funny, he’s talking to seniors, asking for their trust and their fortune, when the only thing he ever played was crooked politicians. Chloe -— goth????? Whaaaa?

Or “I Won’t Do That.” Any Meatloaf song. Would be cool.
