Top 6 Perform

We sadly said goodbye to the quirky and talented Joey Cook. I was sad to see her go but based on the bottom 2 she was the one who performed the weakest. It was only fair that she was the one to leave. Now that they are singing to songs I will rank them based on each round.

Round 1:
6th: Tyanna Jones - Why Do Fools Fall In Love: This song didn't do Tyanna's voice justice. It was just ok coming from her when in the past she has been amazing. This point in the competition it is hard to get back from a stumble although her second performance may have saved her.
5th: Rayvon Owen - Long Train Running: This was a very strong performance from Rayvon with a few off moments here and there but overall he was very solid tonight. I just think the other 4 contestants out performed him this round. I think he's going to be in the bottom 2 but I'm not sure if he's going to stay or leave.
4th: Quentin Alexander - Are You Gonna Go My Way: This performance of Quentin's was probably one of the best I heard from him so far in the competition. With that being said let me talk about what happened with Harry Connick Jr., I get that Quentin was upset by the bottom 2 and I didn't take it the wrong way that he should leave after those comments. However, I fear for his safety because of this outburst because I could see millions of grandmas who watch the show being turned off by him and saying Harry was right. The only thing I think is what JLO said is that he needs to learn to control his emotions of being upset about that.
3rd: Jax - Piece Of My Heart: This is the Jax I missed so much last week. I think this performance was another strong one from Jax even though it wasn't my favorite thing she has done overall. I feel like she has a 50/50 shot of being safe or being in the bottom 2.
2nd: Clark Beckham - Superstition: This was the PERFECT choice for Clark. I was in awe the entire performance when Clark sang. I can't even explain how much I love watching him perform every week. I think he will sail through to the next week no problem.
1st: Nick Fradiani - American Girl: Okay coming in at this week's biggest surprise is Nick Fradiani. I am so proud of Nick coming through when I feel it mattered the most. This week to me was one of Nick's finest moments and it was the right time to peak for him. If he continues down this path I think he may knock out a few people no one expects him to.

Round 2:
6th: Quentin Alexander - The Sound Of Silence: I just don't like this song I guess. This was an okay performance from Quentin. I've just heard him do better in the competition. There were a few off moments within the song. I think he may be in a lot of danger this week just because of what happened earlier in the show. Status: Not Safe.
5th: Jax - Beat It: To be honest I did not hate it like half of my twitter line did. I actually found myself very into this performance of Jax's. I don't think she quite measured up to the other contestant's performances this round but I do think it was entertaining. This song was very hit or miss with Jax so I don't know how it will go over. Status: Not Safe.
4th: Clark Beckham - Moon River: This performance of Clark's was gorgeous but it just didn't lead me anywhere like his other performances have. It was beautiful and perfect sounding but it just didn't get me excited. Status: Safe for the week.
3rd: Rayvon Owen - Always On My Mind: Rayvon has been growing by leaps and bounds and I find myself rooting for him because I always love a good underdog story. I know a lot of people are pissed he got the twitter save, I'm not one of them just because he really did a great job with both performances, even though they weren't perfect he fought his way for this Top 6 spot. Status: Not Safe.
2nd: Tyanna Jones - Proud Mary: And with her comeback is Tyanna Jones who killed her second song. I honestly think with 'Stay' and 'Proud Mary' so far she is setting herself up to quite possibly beat out everyone's Top 2 Clark & Jax and she may just put herself into that finale against Clark. In my opinion any way this season goes will be great. Status: Safe for the week.
1st: Nick Fradiani - Only The Good Die Young: This was by far Nick's best performance to date and he finally peaked at the right time on the show. I am so proud of him for having one hell of a good night on the show. He literally fought so hard for his spot moving forward and I think he may have gotten it. Status: Safe for the week.

Who SHOULD be the bottom 2:
Quentin Alexander and Rayvon Owen

Who WILL be the bottom 2:
Quentin Alexander and Rayvon Owen

Who SHOULD go home:
Quentin Alexander

Who WILL go home:
I think it could go either way.
