(5) Semi-Finals Round 2 REVIEW

THE BEST NIGHT ON AMERICAS GOT TALENT. EVER.

1. Alice Tan Ridley
She no doubt an amazing voice. I think she could have chosen a better song that really showed-off her vocals, but she is very talented. I just think there are too many singers already through.

2. Haspop
I loved Haspop's last performance, but it just wasn't as good tonight. He didn't do enough "popping". I'm really disappointed and I'm afraid America won't put him through.

3. Maestro Alexander Bui
He is a great piano player but too boring for this show. I don't think America will vote him through.

4. Michael & Ashleigh
It was a really cool performance, but it really did need more of a WOW factor. I just wasn't WOWed by it.

5. Michael Grasso
The trick was cool but I could sorta tell how he did part of it. You can tell that when he goes backwards to pull down the curtain over the cage, he switches with the girl. That ruined it for me.

6. Debora Romer
She made a really bad choice for song, but I do love her vulnerability and the way she sings. I just don't think it was that great tonight.

7. Studio One Young Beast Society
That was probably the best performance I've ever seen on the show. The dancing was great and very together, and the tricks they did literally made me jump off my couch and says "WOW". LOVE THEM!

8. Jeremy VanSchoonhoven
I'm sure it's much scarier live, but it really is scary to watch him do that stuff. It's not like he can back off if he wants to either, he has to stay on track or he will run out of time. Very fun and amazing.

9. Nathaniel Kenyon
Not a great song choice (common theme here) but he has star quality and I'm sure the girls like him. He's just a singer and I hate it.

10. Murray
His little lecture thing was boring, and yes, he made a train disappear but the thing is, you know it was somehow just taken away through the ceiling or floor or something stupid. It's too big to really work well.

11. Jackie Evancho
She has an amazing voice! She's practically Barbara Padilla but young!

12. Fighting Gravity
I LOVED their performance tonight. They have a really, cool, unique act that will surely make it to the finals.

My Top 5 (the toughest decision yet)
-Fighting Gravity
-Jackie Evancho
-Jeremy VanSchoonhoven
-Studio One Young Beast Socieyt
-Haspop
