OK, she is cute, she is bouncy. I did not like this song at all. Were any of the notes in tune in that?

Marielle - at least she didn't shout but not much else was positive.

What is it with the echo?

….I don't know…don't know…don't know…don't know…don't know...

Sounds like she's still trying to "rush" the song. Just like they told her NOT to do.

And then she rather shouts the rest of it.

Too bad he wasn't around to keep Adam Lambert in check

Maybe Adam is coaching them to throw those awful high notes/screams into their performances.

I like the song but she wasn't in tune with it.

Jack is back!

….someone that Mick Jagger loved very much has died and he doesn't want to be a part of any world with color or happiness….it's as if he too has died along with her.

THAT'S basically what Paint It Black is about….

Drink a beer? Don't know about this song choice.

Jessica - my favorite so far but there were a couple of awkward pauses. Surprisingly she looked very nervous.

I got that as soon as I read the lyrics. I just never paid attention to the lyrics before. Now, if I was singing it since I was a kid I think I would have known the lyrics and what it was about.

 

[DarthKTrava]

Not sure about the song choice either. A bit too depressing.

I like her....and her voice? Jessica.

She did.

And Keith is spot on with his comment. So was Harry.

Gremlins put in that question mark!

The awkward pauses are in the original version of the song. It's just not a great song.

And Harry was right, she went sharp quite a few times. Wish she'd have done something edgier. She's interesting - usually.

….I've been a Stones fan since I was 14 and I knew the meaning of it back then, but I loved the instrumentals (sitar was played by Brian Jones, who I had a HUGE crush on at the time!)….

 

[kimmar067]

….what? No Jillian?

I love Luke Bryan..but I do not even like him singing that song.

….too many covers of this song.
