what's totally cool and I had no clue!! surprised I didn't read about it???
One of the singer Vicki Martinez is from up here and i've actually seen her play at a coffee shop here! She has a great voice and I hope she goes far with it!!
Any thoughts? I love how the judges can't see the contestants, then they get to duke it out over their favorites.
and Frenchie's singing made me cringe......it was bad......really wish she hadn't got picked??

I watched and really liked it. Loved the dude singing Time After Time but can't remember his name. I think Adam has the best team so far.....I'm hooked.....

i didn't watch it, but i heard Fox went through great lengths to sabotage the premiere.. however, i don't think that worked?
they ran Glee's episode for an hour and a half to carry over into the Voice's time slot, plus, American Idol allowed Pia Toscano to peform on DWTS, which they never let someone from the top 10, out of contract to perform anywhere else.
i saw a clip of the show, was it really that good? it didn't appear to be anything special. maybe i will tune in next week.

wow that chick was awesome...she sang it better than Haley on Idol. and i know that the media has spoken badly about Christina's weight gain, but i actually think she looks great now.. beautiful, even.

Nice! I'd love to hear what you think Ronnie......especially because I am a tough critic and I liked it.
To have PettyFan and Kev say they really liked it says alot also!
Heard from someone today that Vicci said she wouldn't do American Idol because she was afraid she would loose creative rights and didn't want to sing herself over to them then.

I've faithfully watched American and Canadian Idol since they began....the only shows I really ever faithfully watch. The second episode of The voice was pretty good....they have some great singers. * Ronnie....I agree re Christina.....lookin' good to me !

I'm looking forward to seeing who the coaches will eliminate next week. Also, I've come to the conclusion that Blake Shelton is a smart azz...I can't convince my mother of this though LOL...she just loves him.

The battles last night were awesome to watch!!
You could feel the competition between the singers it was powerful seriously........I really think Blake made a MISTAKE! Did he really pick the boring country guy???
I really am rooting for Vicci Martinez......the girl is just awesome!!

Has anyone been watching? I know Valley and Ronnie are trying to catch episodes
I just watched the battles part 2!
It really gets me going....because the judges are so different, and the songs they pick for their contestants are so different....it really keeps me interested!
ok Blake Shelton is a bit of a country bumpkin.....i'm not that much of a fan....and last week I seriously think he made the WRONG choice....Tyler was soooo much better!
Cee lo's team is really cool so far!
I also wouldn't have picked Beverly??? she comes across so full of herself in her voice and stage presence i'm not a fan and for that guy Justin to not even know 'Baba o' Reilly' and rock it, he should have went forward!

I've been watching Muffy....I really like it. I think Adam has the best team. For "Battles Part 2" I agreed with most of the judges picks, but like you, am not a fan of Beverly (for the same reason). I'm not a big Frenchie fan either....kind of an underdog trying to jump start a career, and I feel for her, but I just no likey. I wonder if Adam's pairing was pretty intentional, in terms of axing the girl early....she was OK, but not really a contender. To put her against that dude (can't remember names....dude who sang Time After Time at the audition)...it was kind of like a guaranteed loss and not a fair "fight".
* On a very side note....there's a girl on Adam's team that looks like Jessica Alba...OMG she's beautiful!!

Vicci is rocking!! her voice is beautiful! and honestly Dia who I thought I wouldn't love has blown me away although I really liked the other girl on Blake's team....oh well....I honestly like watching this more then Idol...I like the songs they get to pick better and the judges heart seems way more in it....!!
oh andddddddddd......I would have never known about CeeLo but dang that little guy has grown on me! so cool.

I'm loving "The Voice".. I think Vicci has a chance to win it all.. but my new fav is Dia Frampton. She caught my attention with "Heartless", but her version of "Losing My Religion" was just amazing! I actually download it from itunes.
Can't wait until next week.

Wow......6 or so great singers in the competition....I can see at least 4 with decent recording careers. Liked Javier from the beginning but thought it may have ruined the show a bit, meaning that from the first episode, you almost could have said Javier was going to win, he was that good....which kinda eliminated the suspense. Now, I think there are three potential winners....Javier, Dia, and Vicci. Beverly kinda grew on me (didn't like her at first), but now presents as a bit more humble, which makes her more likable for me.
Dia became a quick favorite for me...very cute, and I liked her last two song choices, especially her take on Losing My Religion. A slight issue when I looked up her songs on youtube....she has like a billion other songs already on there...some in a professional capacity...even a song where she does the exact same clapping riff she used for "Religion", which I thought was cool, but now not as cool? After watching some of her youtube stuff, still seems like a very genuinely sweet girl, but her initial meek and "I never even swore before" image from the first episode, kinda seems like more of an act to me....not sure though.
Javier and Dia tops for me, Vicci in 3rd (though her version of "Dog Days Are Over" was my fav performance of the night), Beverly # 4.
Can't wait for next week!

Re Cee Lo....dude can sang, and he's kinda funny, but....If I had a teenage daughter....I certainly wouldn't let him babysit her......he's a bit of a creeper with the girls! Posts: 2148 | From: Nova Scotia, Canada | Registered: Aug 2007 | Site Updates: 0

Lol Kev.......all my friends keep saying that he has t-rex arms.......poor Ceelo.......honestly though for how cheesy it was I loved Love is a Battlefield!! Valley? I really don't know who is going to win but it's been fun watching it because of the hometown/friends connection
posted
and p.s. I figured out what it is that bothers me about Javier FYI.........it becuase he won't hold out his notes.......like instead of singing meeeeeeeeeeee.....he'll ALWAYS go meeeeeee"meahh"eeeeee.....it's annoying to me and not impressive.....you don't have to float every line you sing to blow people away? hold back? anyone get me? it ends up not sounding like the original we know?

Muffy has already mentioned that she appreciates "The Voice"
But something happened last night that is for every fan of 80's music and especially fans of Stevie Nicks. I mean no one can truly duet with Stevie Nicks because of her unique voice, but listening and watching the clip below from last night's "The Voice" is rather awesome in my opinion. The way Stevie Nicks directs Javier Colon through the song and the embrace him afterwards are almost touching.. Go Stevie!!
Plus.. this is a song that always affects me when I hear it sung by Stevie..
And Ronnie.. I know that "The Voice" is not quite your thing.. but at least they had Stevie Nicks in the house last night!

Oh I agree Valman!! Javier renewed himself in that duet for me......he didn't do the voice cradles like I called him out for. He held notes out and was matched with Stevie really well...(Stevie gave him pointers?)...I totally agree Ronnie needs to watch that clip
All the duets were pretty cool.....I didn't expect that.......Vicci and the guy from Train was awesome.......and Dia and Miranda Lambert awesome......it was fun to watch Posts: 2912 | Registered: Jun 2003 | Site Updates: 26
