Matt Giraud decided to sing “Let’s Get it On” by the legendary Marvin Gaye. I am a big fan of Marvin Gaye’s – I can remember the exact moment when I learned that he had been killed even though I was a small child. Matt is a great singer and I think he sang it well but there was something missing from this performance for me. He had some pitchy moments but it was more than that.
Randy said that Matt is challenging the other men in the competition for the top spot. Kara said that there are a lot of girls out there saying “yeah… let’s get it on.” Ha ha! She said he could have pushed it more but it was a solid performance. Paula said that he really showed a sexy, cool vibe and said that his riffs are tasteful and respectful of the original song. Simon said it was a brilliant song choice, a cool performance and that Matt is one of the frontrunners in the competition.

Awww I thought he did good. Not my favorite but he did good
[...] flaws. Still, I love Matt’s voice but I just don’t find him all that exciting. The judges really liked his performance, [...]
He was good, but I just can’t get into Matt for some reason. I don’t know why but I find him a bit forgettable.
i was IN LOVE with it! blew me away. he was incredible. same with ‘part time lover’. he’s so soulful, his falsetto is perfect, he has great vocal control…he’s been compared to a wide range of singers so he’s versatile too. love matt. i listen to him constantly. whoa. he’ll do well after the show.
