ROUND: Semi-finals, Group 3
THEME: Free Choice
SONG CHOICE: "She’s My Kinda Rain" by Tim McGraw
LYRICS:

She's my kind of rain
Like love in a drunken sky
She's confetti fallin down all night
Shes sits quietly there
Like water in a jar
Says baby why you tremblin like you are
So I wait... And I try
I confess like a child

Chorus
She's my kinda rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin down all night
She's my kind of rain

She's the sunsets shadows
She's like Rembrant's light
She's the history that's played at night
She's my lost companion
She's my dreamin' tree?
Together in this pre-eternity

Summer days Winter snows
She's all thanks to be home

She's my kind of rain
Like love from a drunken sky
Confetti fallin down all night
Yeah she's my kinda rain

So I wait and I try I confess all my crimes
she's my kind of rain
like love from a drunken sky
confetti fallin down all night
she's my kinda rain
She's my kinda rain
like love from a drunken sky
confetti fallin down all night
yeah she's my kind of rain
Rain on me!


JUDGES COMMENTS:
CHRISTINE: Wow. Just ..wow! I'm so speechless right now. That performance was near perfect. I do have one comment to say though, I wouldn't stick with the country songs. You do sing them well, but you're voice is better suited for ANYTHING else!
JD: Christine's 100% right. While that performance was unbelievable, you need to focus on another genre because I really don't think it's you're forte.
ISABELLA: Congratulations on making it to the finals, Jake!


STATUS: Came 4th in Group 3.

ROUND: Lukieniya and Friends
THEME: Chosen for me.
SONG CHOICE: "My Boo" with Ami Massey by Usher and Alicia Keys
LYRICS:

[Jake intro:]
There's always that one person
That will always have your heart
You'll never see it coming
Cause you're blinded from the start
Know that you're that one for me
It's clear for everyone to see
Ooh baby ooh you'll always be my boo

[Ami intro:]
I don't know bout cha'll
But I know about us and uh
This is the only way
We know how to rock
I don't know bout cha'll
But I know about us and uh
This is the only way
We know how to rock

[Jake Verse:]
Do you remember girl
I was the one who gave you your first kiss
Cause I remember girl
I was the one who said put your lips like this
Even before all the fame and
People screaming your name
Girl I was there when you were my baby

[Chorus:]
[Jake & Ami:]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo

[Ami:]
I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo

[Ami Verse:]
Yes I remember boy
Cause after we kissed
I could only think about your lips
Yes I remember boy
The moment I knew you were the one
I could spend my life with
Even before all the fame
And people screaming your name
I was there and you were my baby

[Chorus:]
[Jake & Ami:]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taking over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo

[Ami:]
I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo

[Jake:]
My oh, My oh, My oh, My oh, My Boo

[Ami:]
My oh, My oh, My oh, My oh, My Boo

IMPROVISED LINES AS WE FORGOT

[Ami:]
'And when we sex, we tease and the passion's great'.

[Jake:]
'Yeah, yeah I need sex, even though I hate when other people talk about it..what what yeah yeah yeah'

ROUND: Wildcard
THEME: Free Choice
SONG CHOICE: "Lets Take Out Time" by Ryan Cabrera
LYRICS:

I wanna give every part of you the attention it deserves
I want to take it slow get you in the mood
Cuz the clocks not guna turn
We've been waiting for a couple of weeks
And i know we shouldn't rush
Theres no one here but us

I dont want this to die
Dont want to ever forget this night
To hurry you would be a crime
Lets take our time
Lets take our time

Something so right when i hold you
I dont want to ever let you go
When you whisper in my ear
All the things you want to do
This sensation starts to grow
I dreamt about it every day and night
Never thought you'd come true
Now its just me & you

I dont want this to die
Dont want to ever forget this night
To hurry you would be a crime
Lets take our time
Lets take our time

I dont want this to die
Dont want to ever forget this night
To hurry you would be a crime
Lets take our time

I dont want this to die
Dont want to ever forget this night
To hurry you would be a crime
Lets take our time
Lets take our time

Lets take our time
Lets take our time
Lets take our time

CHRISTINE: Jake, I think you should've gone through the first time. Hearing you again, tells me I was right. I think you could win this competition. You have everything you need - and I think I like you!
JD: Hmm, I think you have everything you need to win this competition - and more. You have the capability to choose the right songs for you're voice. I have no doubt you'll do well if you move on, and I'm almost sure you will
ISABELLA: I hate to give you false hope, but I don't know. It was good but I wasn't as impressed as these guys. I keep trying to picture you're voice in a recording studio, and I can't

STATUS: CHRISTINE’S CHOICE! INTO TOP 13!

ROUND: Top 12
THEME: Holiday Songs
SONG CHOICE: "Something About Christmas Time" by Bryan Adams
LYRICS:

We waited all through the year
for the day to appear
when we could be together in harmony

You know the time will come
peace on earth for everyone
and we can live forever in a world where we are free
let it shine for you and me

There's something about Christmas time
something about Christmas time
that makes you wish it was Christmas everyday

To see the joy in the children's eyes
the way that the old folks smile
says that Christmas will never go away

We're all as one tonight
makes no difference if you're black or white
'cause we can sing together in harmony

I know it's not too late
the world would be a better place
if we can keep the spirit more than one day in the year
send a message loud and clear

Chorus:
It's the time of year when everyone's together
we'll celebrate here on Christmas day
when the ones you love are there
you can feel the magic in the air - you know it's everywhere
There's something about Christmas time
something about Christmas time
that makes you wish it was Christmas every day

To see the joy in the children's eyes
the way that the old folks smile
says that Christmas will never go away

Repeat chorus

Please tell me Christmas will never go away

LILY: Jake ..you took my breath away. It just comes so effortlessly to you. I absolutely love Bryan Adams. And maybe - just maybe you're rendition of that song is better than the original. I loved it!
JOSH: I think you're an inpecable singer. But an Okay dresser. Like I've said to some of the others - just be yourself. Be unique. That's whats in these days! Love the belt to pieces though!
ISABELLA: Hmm, It's singers like you that made me want to become a record producer. Absolutely amazing.

ROUND: Top 11
THEME: Recent Hits
SONG CHOICE: "When It Comes" by Tyler Hilton
LYRICS:

I study up my hollow
Piece of wood to follow
A day that doesn't come
To the lucky

And I realize there's tomorrow
But I would rather wallow
In the rain then moods that seem
So pot-lucky

Well I'm cruising El Paseo
In my off-white coup back ‘65
Or I'm cruisin down my own street
And my hooptie says to me
You better hang on to your bench seat
I'm gonna take you for a ride

And I'll let you know
When it comes, when it comes
I'll let you know

But don't stay up for me
Don't wait up for me
If I'm not home

So I wait for fate to find me
A ball of string unwind me
Uncomfortable as a centerfold

And I realize your behind me
To help and humankind me
To see my songs can be retold

Well I'll be gone tomorrow
Yes I'm on the road tomorrow
So next time that I see you in school
It won't be for too long

And I'll let you know
When it comes, when it comes
I'll let you know

But don't stay up for me
Don't wait up for me
If I'm not home

And I want a leather jacket
But only if I have the time
Well, I'll comb my hair like Elvis
And grab an old Gretch 59

And you'd hardly recognize me if you
Saw me from behind

And I'll let you know
When it comes, when it comes
I'll let you know

And I'll let you know
When it comes
Just when it comes
I'll let you know

But don't stay up for me
Don't wait up for me
If I'm not home

And I'll let you know
I'll let you know
Well I'll let you know

LILY: You know, Jake, Im in love with you! You have such an amazing voice that suits well with absolutely everything. Tonight, wasn't you're strongest point, and I only say that because of you're song choice.
ISABELLA: The reality of you're mediocre performance, is due to you're lack of personality. You and Ryan are front runners in this competition - Performance wise. But you both lack style and I don't know, Its weird.
JOSH: I love what you're wearing. Totally unique and unexpected. I think I heard a few girls scream out that they want you, very hot

ROUND: Top 10
THEME: Music of the 80's
SONG CHOICE: "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Buns 'n' Roses
LYRICS:

She's got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I'd stare too long
I'd probably break down and cry


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


She's got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I'd hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by


Sweet child o' mine
Sweet love of mine


Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o' mine


JUDGES COMMENTS
LILY: Not you're best Jake. Not the best tonight either, honey. I think like Krys, you lack Style. You really remind me of Bon Jovi, and there's a lot of those out there. I need you to try to be unique next time. But you're voice is phenomenal, and so are you!
ISABELLA: I think you pulled it off. The only complaint I have - is that you shouldn't be so god damn tense on that stage. Embrace it, dammit..
JOSH: I'm digging it! The whole ensemble was put together really well..


STATUS: Unsure.
