Relatively easy choices. All the songs are exceptional, but one stood above the other in each pair.

Depending how it turns out, next week could be difficult.

Dang. None of my favorites made it to finals. I’m wondering what demographic this contest represents. FWIW, I’m a 50-something lady and my top pick was Mack the Knife.
