wow - Simon didn't like it and he has been a fan of Brooke's from the beginning. It wasn't my favorite performance for her either.

Randy, laughing - Yo. You know what this is like, you make it interesting, you have the voice box solo, dont know if it was your best performance but another solid look at David Cooke, I love it. Paula says you are ready to go sell lots and lots of records. Geico Commercial is next (reference to Peter Frampton) Simon says, I dont think it was as good as you thought it was. You have lost your element of surprise. I am a big fan of you, this was predictable and I didnt like that version. didnt like it. - I am with Simon.

Brooke talks too much and gives me the sense she is a total suck up.

Simon thought he was smug throughout. Simon was right. David is good, but after a couple of good performances he gets a big head about himself. He needs to keep it in check. JMO!

Randy says another great performance, very controlled, very cool. Paula says you have an amazing tone, arrangement was beautiful, choices you make. You are F for fantastic. Simon says - ah so Beatle song week two, and you pick a song about a blackbird. I thought the song was indulgent, didnt like the song. Carly says she picked the song because she felt like she was like the song and equated the bird to all the competitors. She got another tattoo, the number seven, on her finger.

Jason is up - singing Michelle. Dont know why he would pick this song, it has been sung to death. I think he is too fast, not very impressive but he has a nice voice.

Randy says, good choice. interesting for you very subdued. It was alright for me, didnt feel you were connected to it. Paula says you have charm, you get disconnected when you are away from your guitar. It was an intimate song that became kind of like a polka. Simon says, this is a very wierd show tonight. Where you are lucky is this is a tv show not a radio show. your face sold that. you are very charming, not obnoxious, you have a goofiness that makes it work. If I was listening to it on the radio it would be turning his fingers OFF

I disagree with Randy about the good choice. Agree with Simon again.

I agree that they shouldn't have done the Beatles again this week after such a good week last week.

I agree Justfun, cant figure out why they did it unless they were just so ecstatic that after all these years they have the Beatles songbook

Randy - very very very good performance tonight. Paula - great to see how you let yourself be very vulnerable. It sets you apart. The only thing I would work on is connecting more with your eyes. you ahve a beautiful instrument. Simon - I thought that was your best performance so far. It wasnt incredible but you chose the best song, you chose the song Brooke should have sung. That should keep you in this competition.

I've never been a Beatle's fan, and this is overkill.

Chikezie is up next. Singing I have just seen a face its a different arrangement, seems kind of disjointed to me.

love this. I'm 50 & remember my parents getting on the whole "Beatles" thing even though we only got country music at home, we got to hear "modern" music in the car. My fav childhood Beatles song was "Hey Jude" & I was a wee one then.
