waving feather November 9, 2015 Share November 9, 2015 (edited) One of the reasons the Voice has less successful contestants compared to Idol is because the timeline doesn't allow the public to be attached to the contestants. Once you feel slight attachment, oops they are eliminated. Especially during the battles and knock outs when the public doesn't have a say at all. So why bother...

yourpointis November 9, 2015 Share November 9, 2015 GAVIN ROSSDALE'SUSPICIOUS' OVER GWEN/BLAKE RELATIONSHIP Gavin Rossdale is "suspicious" over estranged wife Gwen Stefani's story that she just became an item with Blake Shelton ... our sources say he just doesn't buy it.Sources close to Gavin tell us he smelled something was up between Gwen and Blake before their marriage blew up. We're told he does not believe the timing of his divorce with Gwen and Blake's divorce with Miranda Lambert is coincidental.We're told Gavin believes Gwen was painting him as a bad guy for cover ... he thinks she was worried he'd take her to the cleaners if he found out she had already hooked up with Blake. And our sources say Gavin's gripes go beyond Blake. He can't believe she's calling him a control freak, because she demanded he NOT go on tour out of paranoia he'd cheat on her. He says she browbeat him into staying home, which greatly impeded his ability to make money. As one source said, "She just didn't let him work."And finally, we're told he's indignant she recorded a "woe is me" song, "Used to Love You," in which she cries, "Nobody taught you how to love." We're told Gavin's scoffing at the lyrics, saying he was good enough for her for a long time.

Dots And Stripes November 9, 2015 Share November 9, 2015 I have a few faves, but I'll be damn if I can remember their names lol. With this show it's rush rush rush, declare winner and then tumbleweed rolling (regarding the winner's post show career) until the next blind auditions start. If I continue to watch this show, I'm going to have to keep notes. I think after the WTF ending to season 2, the show tried to correct some of that rush in the live rounds. That included no longer eliminating someone from each team (which would mean a minimum of 4 artists leaving each week). Personally, I prefer to rush the live rounds a little more. They aren't as compelling as the blinds and the battles. I'd rather get rid of people 2-3 at a time rather than going through 10 weeks of slow eliminations. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5259-the-voice-in-the-media/page/5/#findComment-1690587

I won't presume to know what actually happened in anyone's marriage regarding cheating and when people did or didn't get together, but Gwen is NOT the reason you haven't had much of a career all these years. I know that Bush was more popular overseas, but was everyone really clamouring for a Bush world tour? I would venture to say that he had a career these last few years because he was married to Gwen. I remember when he was Gwen's advisor on the show and it seemed like the majority of the contestants had no idea who he was, musically at least.

ProudMary November 10, 2015 Share November 10, 2015 It really does seem conveniently timed (as did the "No, we're not!" rumors before and during the fall show). Not sure I'm buying any of it either, but they're both fun on the show,, seem like two nice people and if they want to flirt or actually seem developing a closer relationship during The Voice, it'll be kind of fun to see, whether real or not. I thought it was good thinking not to go to the CMAs together. Read on Yahoo this a.m. that Danielle and Cassadee both got good notices on the red carpet and that DB performed at the CMAs with Hunter Hayes. Hard to believe she's 19 already. I still think she may become a much bigger star for the Voice, in time, than Cassadee or the Swons, I'm several days behind with this, but I was just scrolling through a bunch of red carpet photos from the CMAs and I have to say that Blake really does stick with his contestants from The Voice. It wasn't just Danielle and Cassadee that were there the other night but also RaeLynn, Meghan Linsey and Sarah Potenza. Good for all of them!

I agree with every word Adam said about the performance. She's doing the Linda Ronstandt arrangement of the song, and going up against people's memory of Linda Ronstandt's version takes big swinging balls. And heck, the OTHER version is Roy Orbison... so no less intimidating. But Porter measures up to those impossible standard bearers. Ideally I could wish she wasn't doing such a dead on emulation of Ronstandt, because I like a little originality mixed in there too, but okay... it IS a dead on Ronstandt. In other words, impossible.

Kromm February 28, 2016 Share February 28, 2016 Here's Alisan Porter on Star Search. Yeah, she's come a long way! (okay, at 5 years old she was inherently a novelty act) I'm gonna speculate she may pick Christina. Why? Because this exists...

PhD-Purgatory15 February 28, 2016 Share February 28, 2016 Blake's won with young modern country, young pop punk country, R&B, traditional country mixed with some blues rock, took a classic rock guy to the finale, took a bluegrass influenced country singer to the finale, took Sissaundra farther than I thought she would go her season. If you want to win, or at least make finale I think Team Blake is always the right answer regardless of the kind of singer you are... 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5259-the-voice-in-the-media/page/5/#findComment-2005174

Kromm February 29, 2016 Share February 29, 2016 (edited) I thought she was a bit screechy. Obviously people's preferences and 'ear' for sound differ... that's just human nature. But just from a technical perspective are you saying you thought she was off-pitch? I mean I'd like to understand your particular definition of "screechy". To me that would mean someone was sharp on the notes. I didn't hear that personally. She DID have a lot of volume, but when someone's pitch is proper (assuming hers was, as Adam thought and me too), that's not a bad thing. Also one of the more subtle things I loved in her performance was that it's the kind of song (and respectful performance) NOT featuring runs. It's just straight notes for the most part without stupid egotistical flourishes. Again, that's just me. It's okay to hate her version of Blue Bayou. I don't get it... but I don't have to: nobody should make you demand a justification for your taste, although like I said if it's a specific comment like "screechy" I'd like to understand better what you actually mean by that. Unless you mean that really old cover of Christina rather than her blind audition (linked upthread). I don't know how old she is there, but she's certainly a teenager. Yes, she's screechy there. Quite a bit. If THAT teenager was auditioning for The Voice she arguably wouldn't deserve to get on. But if you listen to the blind audition, she's come a long way from that. The purpose of me posting that wasn't to show some wonderful performance, it was to support my assertion that I think there's a pretty good chance she picks Christina.

Cramps March 1, 2016 Share March 1, 2016 To qualify, since it seems important to you, I thought she was sharp and didn't have a great tone quite a few times when she was belting the higher notes on Blue Bayou. I really didn't get why the coaches were as in awe and smitten as they were. She was good, but for me she wasn't dramatically better than everyone else in the episode. I guess it played better live in the room. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5259-the-voice-in-the-media/page/5/#findComment-2010396
ProudMary March 3, 2016 Share March 3, 2016 Let me first say that overall, I enjoyed Alisan's performance but I heard three separate notes where she was flat. It was a good performance but I don't catagorize it as one of the best of all time. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/5259-the-voice-in-the-media/page/5/#findComment-2019514
