Kelly Clarkson helped coach Brian in preparation for the battle, while Miranda Lambert helped coach Jordis. Although Brian had some doubts about singing a song meant for a female, he sounded good while practicing and just needed to be confident in his voice that he can hit the higher notes he needs to. Jordis on the other hand has the voice but was psyching herself out during practice, she has the power to overcome that though. Based on their practices, Brian seemed to be the stronger vocalist going into the battle.
Jordis started the song strong and confident, setting the bar for when Brian joined in. He reached the level Jordis had placed the song and might have surpassed it because he sounded more unique in his parts. They both sounded good, but they probably could have sounded better.
Christina thought the whole performance was pitchy but decided to go with Jordis. Adam agreed, while Cee Lo like Brian's stage presence and aggressiveness. Based on Blake's desire for a rocker, I think his choice will pay out in the end even though the performance was a poor showing from both contestants.
SPOILER ALERT!! This is the full performance, including critiques and Blake's final decision.
So what did you think of their performance? Who would you choose?
A solid post. Look to find good music writing (Rolling Stone, etc.) to capture what it means to describe a singer's voice. Model your writing like that.
