Randy: Yo Dawg, you know what I love, you’re an amazing singer
but you really came home with this for me! You did a great singer song
writer thing– Dude I thought it was dope!
Ellen: I thought it was great and I thought you sounded great
but of all the people doing Stones tonight I expected a tiny bit more
from you. It ALMOST didn’t come together–like a hospital gown–but it’s
hard because there was nothing wrong with it, just a little less then I
expected.
Kara: You are growing faster then anybody on this stage, every
week you are getting better, more confident..tremendous growth.
Simon: I really like you and your story but I think what’s
always holding you back is your personality and what’s hard is you have
got an amazing voice but you’ve got to come out and have you’re moment.
Randy: Said that it was a cool version of the song and that he
“knocked it out of the box.
Ellen: Told a strange story about her favourite pen running
out of ink and how she was upset until she managed to revive it again,
she exclaimed: “My favourite pen is back. That was fantastic!
Kara: You have raised the bar. I have never heard you sound
better, look more comfortable – you are finally owning the stage.
Simon Cowell: Didn’t like the song choice and said it wasn’t a
recording performance even if he sounded good. He said it was quite
‘corny’ and had no ‘moment.
