Scott MacIntyre chose to sing “You Can’t Hurry Love” which was originally recorded by the Supremes but remade by Phil Collins (and the Dixie Chicks for the Runaway Bride soundtrack – right?). I thought the timing and phrasing was weird. I thought there were pitch issues and I really did not love this performance.
Paula said that when Scott is feeling a song, the audience feels it too. Simon said that when he heard Scott sing “how much more can I take”… ha ha. He said it was the wrong song and a bad performance. Finally, someone is telling Scott the truth. Randy agreed and said it was a hotel kind of performance. They both said Scott was better than that. Kara said that the song was a good choice but the execution was not perfect.
Funny moment – Simon was irritating Paula so she reached under her desk, grabbed crayons and a coloring book, gave them to him and said “here you go, six year old.” Ha ha!!!
