No surprise to see Mikalah go. Her final performance highlighted something that interests me. She sounded horrible (and off-key) on the verses of "LWLYB," but she sounded decent on the belted parts. The same can be said of a lot of the contestants (notice many of them save their performances by nailing the ending). It just goes to show that undersinging/nuance are just as hard or harder as nailing the show-stopping notes.

*Is it me, or does there seem to be some palpable chemistry between Carrie and Bo? It seems like they are always near each other, looking at each other, etc.
