Before I share my live reactions to the voice last night, I want to fill you in on a couple of things. One, I have an awesome guest blogger today who shared her writing playlist with us while I talked muses on her blog (link to come).
Speaking of Muses, I’ll also be sharing some cool stuff about my book this week as well as reviews of the new Carrie Underwood and Alexz Johnson CDs. I’m also working on a few other music reviews so I hope you’ll enjoy them! And now… on with The Voice…
And Dia Frampton is opening the show with a song featuring Kid Cudi. I love her… she really grew into her voice throughout last season. Need to get her album!
Team Xtina is about to find out who will be the last one standing. She gave them a 50/50 split. America chose Chris.
Vicci is performing with Cee Lo and they just hit a great note together. I like the song and CP Bialois is clearly recognizing the chorus from some other song right now. He’s got that look on his face where he’s trying to figure out what song they sampled. He is usually annoying right about it.
Oh boy, here we go…. It’s decision time between Tony and Katrina. Adam gave Tony the edge with 60/40. America gave Tony their votes and he’s moving on to the final. I’m so torn but I think Tony will give Adam a great chance at a repeat win. Either way, I’m going to be following both their careers.
Bev and Cyndi are performing together- love it!! Cyndi seems to be having a problem with her earpiece, though. Their voices are a really interesting mix.
And last year’s winner, Javier, just performed. I have had issue with him since last year when he didn’t really follow his judge’s notes. Still don’t like how Jeff Jenkins was basically sold out to Javier the final spot for the team.
Blake gave Erin and Jermain a 50/50 spilt and America’s vote gave Jermaine the win. He’s going to the final. Congrats to them both on some great performances this season.
I am SO bummed right now…. Jamar Vs. Juliette got a 40/60 split with Ceelo, America gave her a big win. Seriously? Yes, her performance of “It’s a Man’s World” was amazing, but really- Jamar has been so much better and more consistent.
So there you have it- The Final Four. What do you think? Comment and let’s talk about it. In the meantime, enjoy my two favorite performances of the elite 8 round:

Good review of the show. If it were up to me I would have picked Jamar over Juliette. Juliette is good, but so are all of them and I don’t get what’s so special about her. I think Jamar is a much better singer than her. Erin and Jermaine was the tough one for me because I really like Erin a lot, but I can’t deny Jermaine’s talent either.
I agree with you regarding Jamar and Juliette. To me, there was no contest. Good to see I’m not the only one trying to figure out her appeal.
The coaches definitely had a tough choice with the others; I sure wouldn’t want to be in that seat.
I agree about the Jamar Juliette matchup. Juliette was weak the entire time, and only hit it when she sang “It’s a Man’s World”. I also took great exception to the choice between Tony and Katrina. Katrina has so much more depth. Adam really went egocentric with this one. Too much mirror gazing?
Hi, Lisbeth. I actually really like Tony as a performer and a vocalist. I honestly don’t think Adam could’ve gone wrong with either choice but I was really sad to see Katrina go. I think she will not doubt be getting some kind of deal soon. There is NO way she can be passed up.
Regarding Juliette/Jamar- Glad to see yet another person who agrees with me on this. I really feel like I’m in bizarro world when I hear the judges going nuts over her week after week.
