Allison Iraheta.

Papa Was A Rolling Stone by Temptations.

As always, they're running short of time despite having 2 full hours to plod through 10 mediocre performances. So not impressed with the vidclip; hoping for her to bring it on stage, like she usually does. Love the beat of the band on this song, but her breathy intro not so much. Second line, better and cleaner vocally, although I still think Jackie Tohn gave her a case of the smoker's voice on her way off the show. The note right before the title line fell short for me, although the title line satisfied vocally and attitudinally. She storms through the 'problem' lyrics like a pro, and when the backup singers take over the melody line for a spell, she nails a background vocal. Signature Allison on the ending, drawn out and dramatically dellivered.

A 7, on balance. Too many flaws early-on keep me from giving it a higher score.

Randy: You're 16, but you're one of the dopest singers this season! Blazing hot!
Kara: Wow! 16 years old and you were in the bottom three last week? America! You've got to vote for her this week! Singing like you have a gift from God! You can't teach that! Whew!
Poler (spreading something dark colored like a mustache ... lol): You are awesome! Amazing! You belong in the competition! Beautiful!
Simon: You're a survivor. Had a terrible week last week. That was really one of your best performances you've ever done.
