I disagree with Simon about the song choice, because, well, it's country week. What was Lakisha supposed to do? I agree with Randy - She could have reinterpreted it as a gospel song and made it work for her.
I thought that this wasnt her best, but this is NOT her type of music. I dont know why people are freaking out about it. It was actually pretty good. It just wasnt her genre...
I love Carrie and her version of the song, so I liked this performance, but it wasn't even close to what Carrie can do with it. Lakisha is good, but Carrie is better.
Why do contestants keep thinking it's a good idea to cover previous contestants song? Anytime it's happened, the contestant is eliminated or in the bottom three.
Ok.... Lakisha has a big voice but the song's melody and range was too small for Laksiha to do her 'treatment'. So she started to belt and it drowned out the band and she lost the melody and went pitchy
Yeah right. I thought that was a great performance considering she step out of her comfort zone. North American country music is for everyone and not just for Southern Americans. Sorry..
I missed this performance but I heard people making fun of this on the radio. I was expecting something horrible but I liked this performance. I thought it was very heartfelt. I think Simon's hilarious though "I'm right!" I love him
this was her worst performance but shes better in others.

I love the frustration on Paula's face before her judgement - "oh god, they're going to boo me, stay strong..."

I think you have to forget Carrie's version and just let Lakisha take you on her own journey with this song.
