Had every one of your comments mentioned that Phillip "pales" in comparison to the original. Really?

How about first song, Joshua paled in comparison to not only the original but even Rachel Crow?

How about on "My All" Jessica paled in comparison to Mariah Carey... probably because this isn't one of over 200 songs she has already mastered on her YouTube Channel, as most of her other songs from this season were songs she had already sung a bunch of times?

Or about about how "Imagine" paled in comparison to John Lennon AND David Archuleta?

And how about Jessica paled in comparison with Steven Tyler?

How about a little consistency with your comments? We know you don't like Phillip. Do you want to make it so obvious?!? LOL.


UV you are wrong. I like Phillip just fine. He can carry a tune and I somewhat have enjoyed hearing him sing this year with just a couple exceptions when he actually sang horribly like in You've lost that loving feeling. I didn't think Jessica or Joshua paled.



In rereading your comments, you did prefer Tyler's version to Jessica. Unless I misread? Waffling now, are you?

Randy is Crazy. To him that was a great MOMENT for P2. Talk about Pimping. He sang it soft and pretty. His vocals paled compared to Seger's original. Nice stylist lacking vocals. Those are my final thoughts for the night.



Paled in comparison yet again, eh? Sorry, you only mentioned it in two of your three Phillip reviews tonight/
Touche.

Is that a painting term? "Paled in comparison"?


I used paled in comparison for both of those because that is what he does. He pales in comparison to those voices.



Well ok. That's fine if that is what you think. I think Jessica paled in comparison to Mariah Carey and Joshua paled in comparison to Rachel Crow.

I do like Stylers version better. I love the SCREAMING and Passion he puts in it. Funny thing is though with Joshua and Adam Lambert everybody wants to hate on them for the screaming. Jessica sang the song beautifully in my opinion just didn't do all the over the top stuff that Styler did. Personally I love the over the top stuff that Styler did and that is why I like his version better. However I don't think Jessica paled she just sang it softer and prettier.

blah blah blah---Cook and Allison sang it much better that Jessica could ever hope to. Again, I like the texture of their voices over hers.

I guess this is why we'll never be in the same ticket queue...

This was one time that I actually LIKED how Jessica handled a song - and I thought is was far superior to the original, because it DIDN'T go 'over the top'.

This is a song that I dislike immensely - primarily because it is a vapid and sappy ballad to begin with. It's only rancid icing on the cake that you get Tyler's caterwauling thrown in - because he shouldn't be let within 100 yards of a ballad.

While the song was still sappy and vapid - at least Jessica gave it her pageanty best - which is what the song deserved.

Hallelujah. Finally somebody praising Jessica for singing soft and pretty on last nights show. I like both Styler and Jessica on this song as for Cook and Alison been too long for me to remember if they did it well.
All season I have been hearing people rip on contestants for doing too much. Last night Jessica totally toned it down and gets ripped for not enough passion on the song. I would be in the ticket queue for Jessica with you if the price was modest.
