Three songs each tonight.
First up is Bobby Bones pick. And his choice for Wade is Ray Lamantagne's (sp?) "The Best Thing".
Better than usual.
Katie: So glad you pushed past your comfort zone.
Luke: I like how you tried not to over-do that song. Watching you grow and watching you get confidence is what this show is all about.
Lionel: You can do it in spades. Relax and enjoy, my friend.
Bones' pick for her is Miranda Lambert's "The House That Built Me". Good choice. Soft and smooth.
Luke: I'm glad we saved you. You give us soulful, you give us style. One of your better vocals.
Lionel: That song fit you perfectly. You are a storyteller. That little lick at the end was amazing. Keep focused on what you're about. Don't worry about anyone else.
Katie: The stakes are so high right now. The only way anyone is going to win this show is ... taking chances. Take more chances and you'll make it, girl.
Sominex couldn't knock you out any faster than Alejandro playing the piano. "Sorry Seems To Be the DULLEST Word."
But the judges will love this.
Let's see what they say when I wake up from my nap.
Luke: Have you been holding back? You are owning the night. Wrap your head around being a giant. Just amazing what you're doing.
Lionel: You killed that. You have taken your style. The art of your artistry is so beautiful. The sky is the limit.
Katie: [she has a sad] You decided that you actually play in this competition.
She sings "Your Song". Best of the Elton songs so far. Don't know if that's saying much.
Lionel: You came into this competition with a bat to knock everyone out!
Katie: Have you ever had a cheeseburger with no ketchup and no mustard? It was good, it was fine. But you just gave us the ketchup and the mus-TARD!
Luke: I didn't know where Katie was going with that. We have to focus on how soulful you are.
Katie: And maybe some Thousand Island!
Without warning, we’re dropped into Mother’s Day emotion.
Final Round: Songs for Mom. Wade chooses "Hard Luck Woman" by KISS.
It's okay. But it goes on a little too long.
Luke: Such an amazing tribute [to your parents]. One of your better performances. You wiped me out on the [earlier performance].
Lionel: All you have to do is recognize the power inside of you.
Katie: I'm so proud of you. It's just the beginning for you, Wade Cota.
Wade's mom seems scared of everything.
