Top 11 Redux - 80's Week song choice Reaction

Hello and welcome to 80's week the studio versions are up on iTunes and the contestants have all picked out their songs. Today I will be reacting to the samples of the studio versions and based on that what I expect to happen on the show.

Adanna Duru - I Hate Myself For Loving You: I thought it was a good song choice for Adanna but the studio version is a bit shouty which is something I fear for Adanna with. If she can control her voice live I think this could be great.
Clark Beckham - Every Breath You Take: I love how he changed it to a piano driven ballad which I think really works for his voice. This song has been done many times on the show but I think Clark's version will be the most successful .
Daniel Seavey - You Make My Dreams: This is actually the best I've heard Daniel sing I think he picked the best song he could have and worked with what he had.
Jax - You Give Love A Bad Name: I love this arrangement Jax came up with for the song it brought me back to Bang Bang Jax which I think is a smart move on her part.
Joey Cook - Girls Just Wanna Have Fun:  I'm not really a fan of this Joey performance whereas her last few performances have been spot on this one is just okay at best it just doesn't show Joey's brilliance like in "Fancy" and "Mad World".
Maddie Walker - Every Rose Has It's Thorn: This reminds me of the Maddie I fell in love with during Hollywood Week. I love her so much and this choice sounds amazing on Maddie. I just hope when she gets to the live show she can connect to the audience because that's what she needs to do to be pushed over the edge in live shows.
Nick Fradiani - Man In The  Mirror:  This was a good song choice for Nick. I think he does really well with it. I wish it had more of a wow factor than it does but I think it's good.
Qaasim Middleton - Addicted To Love:  This is probably the best vocal I've heard from Qaasim in the studio version. We'll see if that caries over into live shows.
Quentin Alexander - In The Air Tonight:  Quentin's studio version is good but it just does nothing for me. Last week I loved what he did. This week he let me down.
Rayvon Owen - Everybody Wants To Rule The World:  I think this song really suits Rayvon's voice my only worry with this song is that it doesn't translate well live. His studio is gorgeous but I just worry about the live performance.
Tyanna Jones - I Wanna Dance With Somebody: Thank you Tyanna for listening to my song suggestion!  This song was everything I expected  from Tyanna which is pure perfection
