Top 4 Redux ...with Harry Connick, Jr.
Songs from 2013
B Angie "Diamonds"
B Candice "When I Was Your Man"
B Kree "See You Again"
C- Amber "Just Give Me A Reason"
ANGIE was pretty strong, but not most exciting song.
K: Not right song, kept waiting for it to happen; N: Bland, lackluster; R: Didn't go anywhere, didn't love it; M: Played to camera
AMBER was a bit shaky and flat in spots.
N: Sometimes in, sometimes out; R: Not having fun? Let it all go, not stellar; M: Need to see confidence; K: Clarity, fantastic
CANDICE had good vox as usual, but song choice? (not lyrics-wise).
R: That's how you sing, amazing; M: Candice has musicality to change to suit her; K: Winning performance; N: Deserves a Standing-O, felt like it was your song
KREE was okay, middle of the road.
M: Felt you in beginning, authentic; K: Not quite connected, conflict between seeing and hearing; N: Loved my Kreedom performance, sang with eyes; R: Amazing voice, great vocal
Standards
B+ Candice "You've Changed"
B Amber "My Funny Valentine"
B Kree "Stormy Weather"
B Angie "Someone to Watch Over Me"
ANGIE had good tone, but sounded too old-fashioned.
K: Sang it so beautifully, choice didn't matter; N: Disney Princess; R: Loved beginning, this girl can sing, amazing vocal; M: Can't get past piano situation
AMBER had some great moments.
N: So beautiful, great job; R: Last half absolutely beautiful, slayed it; M: Spirit there bigger and better; K: Stellar, needed confidence
CANDICE was BOTN, IITWI.
R: IITWI, stellar, amazing; M: There is no critiquing; K: Power and control, beautiful; N: Not going to add anything else
KREE was pretty good, too.
M: Should've gone bluesy to me, still great; K: Different song; N: Song choice; R: Stick to who you are, good job
