Okay as most of you know I decided to judge this one by myself. Please keep in mind that if you are eliminated it does not mean I don't like you or that I don't like your singing cause I do. Its not easy cutting half the field, losing some to no entries and others to withdrawel. :( The scores were so very close and it made it extremly hard to pick the winners.


Scoring will be on a scale of 1-10 and will be based on the following criteria:

Song Selection ~How the song fits your vocals.
Pitch ~ How well you stay on key.
Emotion~How well you put feeling into the song.
Overall Vocals~Marketability

Any question please PM me.

Rules
Please no fighting.
Questions or concerns please PM me.
Listen to others songs.
No Harmonies
No Duets

Entries must now be fresh following the above rules. Any country songs or bluegrass is okay as well. Please No drama and if eliminated please bow out gracefully. (You can all see how tough this is going to be.

Congrats to those advancing & good luck! I knew that I was a gonner, after I heard Caz999. I wasn't very lucky, in pulling a #1 seed, either, I guess. LOL

Ez, thanks for a well-run contest! You've been very respectful to us all & fair....and have worked your buns off, I'm sure!
I wouldn't want to be in your shoes for anything, judging all of the great talent here.
