It's the FINALS!

On The Voice last night the 4 finalists battled it out for the title! They were amazing as were their duets with their coaches. Let's take a look at their individual performances first. Dia sang, "Inventing Shadows" while playing piano. Unfortunately this was a performance I didn't quite like from her, although she appeared confident, I felt that her performance lacked energy. The judges and audience still applauded her and I feel that with her Nelly Furtado-Michelle Branch vocal style, she'll go far in her singing career. Vicci sang, "Afraid to Sleep." Ms. I'm BRINGING IT, lol! With this song she made me proud, she owned it and of course the judges had no criticisms. This girl has tons of energy and she brings it! Voice, moves, and likeability. Although she says she wants to improve, I don't see how that is possible since she is amazing just the way she is! Beverly sang, "Love Sick" and well that performance was sick! She had a crowd on their feet, and is just an overall great performer. Lastly, Javier!!!!!!! I love him! He sang, "Stitch by Stitch" and where do I start? He had perfect breath control, never pitchy, works the stage, true star quality, likeable, and every time he performs, he looks like it doesn't even phase him since as he is naturally comfortable on stage. The guy definitely has it all!

On to the duets! Dia and Blake sang, "I Won't Back Down" on guitar. Cute. Their act looked almost like a Men in Black with their black suits and sunglasses lol. They did a great job, although both have different vocal styles. My only criticism would be they had to have more energy but other than that, well done. Ms. I'm BRINGING IT and Cee Lo sang, "Love Is A Battlefield" with cute young kids as their backup dancers! Wow those children can really move! They're rendition of the song, sounded much like the original...simply FAB! Vicci brought it again, showing the emotion. What I like about her other than her performing style is how genuine she is! This girl could never come off as fake, she connects to any song she sings and the overall result is a phenomenal performance! Beverly and Christina sang, "Beautiful" Unfortunately I didn't think it was all that "beautiful" seeing as Beverly didn't get to showcase her vocals. Even though everyone knows what she's capable of, I felt an uptempo song would've been better for her, like Christina's "Lady Marmalade" or "Come On Over." Lastly, JAVIER!!!! He and Adam sang Michael Jackson's, "Man in the Mirror" JUSTICE, lol! Javier totally gobbled Adam up in this song. We know that no one can copy the iconic Michael Jackson, but this was a great take, it was smooth, energetic, a great vocal! Ta-da!

Tune in tonight to see who's taking it home! Results @ 8pm! Ciao 4 now :)
