Randy kicked things off with some fancy footwork.
But stumbled when it came to the words.
Then the curse spread to haley.
I messed up the wordS. I feel like such a schmuck.
Probably the worst performance I have ever done in my life.
Phil and gina were determined to ignite a love-fest.
Some broke away by changing the motown sound.
But the judges were not impressed.
You actually sing better than.
That sometimes you can let the classics be the classics.
You know what I mean?
You turned a beautiful song into a complete and utter drone.
Stephanie and chris picked hits from the 70'S.
Sanjaya put his twist on a classic.
But randy was there to straighten him ouT.
That song was almost unlistenable for me,man.
They were able to listen to the softer side of lakisha and jordin.
That was sensational.
You have put yourself in the finals of this competition.
Melinda brought it home for paula.
