Mia and Roman were both standouts for me. But overall, the mix was just SO much better than the night before. I think that may be why this group 2 overall were better than group 1.

Loved Jelly Roll as a mentor. I think that’s why this group was so much better than the other group.

Mia is an absolute tone monster! I’ve been saying this on all my videos of her! She is definitely my top 3 favorite voices! She ate that right up! All the inflection, yodels, forced flips, and cries in her voice is just incredibly raw! Everyone tonight ATE down! Roman reminds so much of Joshua Ledet it’s crazy!

I loved Jellyroll as well! He’s the best mentor I have ever witnessed!

Absolutely so 12 should go through. That e the most amazing episode of America Idol I ever watched!!!

The Roman Collins song is not by James Taylor, even thou he re-recorded in the late 70's . " How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You) " is a song recorded by Marvin Gaye in 1965. It was written in 1964 by the Motown songwriting team of Holland-Dozier-Holland and produced by Brian Holland and Lamont Dozier.

Mia, Emmy and Ajii were stellar! Also thought Kennedy and Triston were a welcoming surprise

Wow! A quote from the great Teddy Roosevelt. I'm super impressed, both that you delivered it, and you did so as a denouement to the reviews. Now, if we can convince you teaching classical music (oh nevermind). Well done...

Odell, Ajii, Mackenzie, Triston were my faves of the whole season. This night was so much better than the first night

Love Jack!!!! 🎉

I voted for Jayna, Julia, Odell and Roman. I wasn’t gonna vote for Roman but he surprised me with that rendition of “How Sweet It Is” I loved it. And kept rewinding it on KZfaq over and over.

You are a man of music and you are a man of character.

I think Jennifer is using this show correctly as a platform to showcase herself and not as a competition. Even if she hadn't come on Idol she would've sounded the same, at least this way she introduces her sound and style to the world. I'm her fan now, and so are a lot of others.

Have you guys heard Kayko's duet with Emmy? They sound so sweet together. The video is called "Civil War - KAYKO, Emmy Russell, Song House"

Jelly Roll is a great mentor!

Clark! You make my day with your balloons and confetti. Absolutely cracks me up every time. ❤

I always look forward to your reviews! ❤

Thank you, I am enjoying listening to You.

Great professional commentary by you👍 and Jelly Roll seemed like one of the best mentors on idol, results wise since everybody he mentored did beautifully. You were right when you said he is the Superstar mentor.

Clark, we didn't notice that about MacKenzie's run at the end lol. It sounded good to us.

Another great video Clark! My favorites were Odell, Roman, Tristan, Emmy and Mia.

I really am rooting for so many of them but just want to specifically mention that Jennifer Jeffries has such a unique and deep soul sounding voice much like some of the other voices you hear in the indie folk world. You know I can only say that to each their own on opinions of her , we’re not all everyone’s cup of tea but man o man this gal is a whole pitcher and if you aren’t having any of it you’re sadly missing out. I hope that someone signs her right away when this show is over.

can you please water that plant on the shelf, clark. thanks.

Thank you so much. Love your insights. Greetings from South Africa

Clark thank you for great reviews! I've been watching your videos for few years. I have started watching mainly becouse I was searching someone to review the show and singers, becouse I can not watch the show alive (i'm from Europe), I can just watch the videos from youtube. I wish I could join you at the watch party, but still I'm enjoying videos every time. You give so good comments that also me as not singer can understand it and having fun Keep up the good work and see you in the next video as you say.

Mia Matthews killed me. Tears.

Ajii was my fav of the night, he seems like the most versatile and able to switch genres

Night 2 absolutely clearrreddd Night 1. Jelly Roll was incredible.

🤣🤣🤣 Oh my Gosh, your plea for the like here 19:33 cracked me up 😂! First thing I do when watching things I already know I like is to hit the like button. I double checked just to make sure anyways; but, yep, had already liked it 😊👍! 'Bout the quote at the end, big truth, thanks for the reminder!

Yay, I got to be like number 999 on this post, now I'm going to interpret that as a sign that this will be a great day =D Love your videoes always, they're so insightful and wow, everyone on this episode was so good, as a complete package this episode was much better than last.

I love the Teddy Roosevelt quote. ❤

Jelly Roll was the best mentor

Loved your comments and I agree with everyone having a 'Best performance' with the exception of J.Blocks. But I must admit that it was your Teddy Roosevelt quote that brought me to tears. I was raised on Long Island and visited his home, Sagamore Hill often.

Thank you Clark for your show. It enhances the Idol overall experience being so educational in the process. Obliviously Mon. night was far better. They need Jelly Roll back again!! He clearly demonstrates what music is meant to be about. We need connection in our culture today more than ever. Thank you Clark for what you are doing. God Bless.

Idol is listed as being on Monday for 2 hours. In addition to 3 hours Sunday.

wow Adam Lambert is actually going to be coach on The Voice Australia !

Love the quote !!! Putting things in perspective in our AI age is key!

Jack Blocker is the best. He has a band called Rightfield and he has a lot of videos. You guys would not recognize him.

My favorite. Gagnon Nya abi Mackenzie Jordan ❤

I enjoyed Roman's performance and was impressed with Emmy! Best of the night for me was Mia. My favorite of the season will be Makenna though. Her tone is bar none.

The show was great. Everyone put on a good performance. KBlocks' performance and voice almost seemed like a spoof in this group of performers, but it was still fun. You can argue that several performers were "the best of the night." However, Odell kicked off the night and lit a fire for everyone. Tristan -- 15 -- came on stage after one of the best nights of solid performances in recent Idol memory and calmly stole the show. He is like Iam. Every song he sings causes me to think "how can this voice and performer be real"?

totally agree with you on the regae break by Ajii; up until that point he was wowing me but that pulled me right out of the performance.

I agree with you about Jelly Roll!

Jennifer, Emmy and Ajii are the most interesting.

There are a lot of very likeable personalities on this season, in addition to their voices and songs.

Kblocks time is up.

❤❤❤

Triston Harper is my favorite

Jayna is excellent

Agree Jelly was sick! On another note, Clarke can you show more of your reactions in real time? Love those

Review your own Idol performances!

Please water your pothos plant and pull off the yellow leaves - it is crying out for some TLC.

Jelly Roll needs to be a permanent judge. Make it happen! The second night singers were way better than the first night.

Tristan is the best!

You know how some people have that gift of uplifting and affirming? How they seem to be a signal booster? Like, you get around them and they just increase the good energy and they juice your own signal just enough for you to BELIEVE? To feel that flow running through you? You feel connected and refreshed and full of that warmth and your doubts melt away? I think that’s what Jelly Roll is. I think he came in there with one intention and one intention only which was to hold that space for these young artists to connect with their instrument and with their hearts and then welcome the audience into that experience with them. Does that make sense?

Anjii was my favorite.

Triston sounds a LOT like Tracy Lawrence. 'Paint Me a Birmingham'

Jelly Roll is a super mentor, very involved and genuinely interested in their best performance. He knows what are the strengths and weaknesses of each contestant and inspired them to give the best performances. The other half of the contestants didn’t connect like these contestants did and I felt Tori very disengaged and a bit cold. Maybe this is the reason the second group performed so much better? I love Tori’s singing though

Here’s an idea.. do a duet with Belle Taylor Smith of The voice ( AUS ) fame. Astounding voice and she’s on.. You guessed it.. 79k subs too! Blast you both past the 80k mark

I questiion if KBlock can hear music well. She always sounds off to me and is throwing a lot of sounds out hoping she lands on the right one.

Please mention the name of the songs they sing. Thanks.

Goodbye Kblock!

I still miss Ziggy. His style, dramatic flair, and piercing tone on high notes create the moments that these talent shows thrive on....and they cut him! There are so many singers still here who don't/can't produce "wow" TV moments. That's not to say they aren't incredibly talented, they just aren't memorable Idol contestants.

This is only the 2nd time hearing Elleigh. She wasn't on the arena show or the showstopper

I think we are going to have another guy winner this season and my guess it will be Triston or Will 😔. I was hoping for a female winner but I don’t think it’s going to happen

I wouldn't be surprised if Mia & Triston were in the Finale.

Odell, Roman or Quintavious??

159👍 Hit that👍👍👍👍👍

Tristan could leave and get signed right now.

I think Jelly roll would be a great judge

Triston was the best.

I'll be so pissed if they cut Jennifer jefferies in this round. People don't see it, but her song writing and vibe is amazing. Her voice technique maybe not so much but her one in a million tone makes up for it. She's like bob Dylan mixed with Oliver Anthony........and...and herself. ❤

How about you do the Voice too 😀

I like the man in the arena bit, but they do keep score there. Someone wins this thing. You didn't make any predictions about who would go through..

This channel is as interesting as listening to water dripping off of my faucet, or looking a dead fish lying on the floor

I thought this was Tristan’s worst song so far but he’s definitely going far

I think Roman might be in more danger than Jennifer… Performances aside, I think he doesn’t have enough fans/voters😢

KBlocks was Terrible......!

Updated Top 14 Predictions: Abi Carter Emmy Russell Jack Blocker Julia Gagnon Kaibrienne Richins McKenna Brienholt Mia Matthews Samuel “Kayko” Kelly-Cohen Will Moesley Triston Harper Wild Cards: Ajii Hafeez Jennifer Jeffries Nya Muchai-Kinya Odell Bunton Jr. The first 10 are just the people I believe have the most fans and/or are the ones most capable of pulling out the smashing performances… The wildcards were hard to choose, it could very well depend on what happens on the night, but I definitely think Jennifer is one of them since there’s really nothing like that…but probably Odell as well because he is a platinum ticket winner, the other two is up for grabs…but I really wished they would do a Top 12 instead of Top 14…

don't dance if you not love it .. tho ..^^ but you could try lol

A lot of Mexican Spanish music feature accordians a lot. Not a fan of the sound.

Night 1 elimination prediction: Hailey Mia & Jordan Anthony Who I would eliminate: Blake Proehl & Jordan Anthony. Possibly eliminated: Nya. Someone everyone loves that I just dont get: Abi Carter Overrated: Will Moseley Night 2 EP: K. Blocks and Elleigh Marie Who i would eliminate: K. Blocks & Mackenzie Sol Possibly eliminated: Kennedy Reid Someone everyone seems to love that I just don't get: Kayko Overrated: Jennifer Jefferies.

ODELL AND AJJI WAS GOOD , JENNIFER VOICE IS AN ORIGINAL DISTINCT SOUND , KENNEDY LOOKS 40 YRS OLD . JACK AND ROMAN GOOD . KBLOCKS STYLIST SHOPS AT GOODWILL . TIRED OF ALL THE SOB STORIES , I REALLY DONT CARE TO HEAR IT. BACKGROUND SINGERS WERE AGAIN TO LOUD MANY TIMES . YOU , ADAM LAMBERT AND CRYSTAL BOWERSOX ARE STILL IMO THE REAL WINNERS OF YOUR SEASONS !

Roman and Triston were great. Most of the others are boring to me. I wish Ziggy was still there.

Stop with the “runs”. Sing the song. Feel the song, stop with the freaking vocal gymnastics.

Not a kenedy fan I honestly feel like she’s super annoying

Not a jennifer Jeffries fan. She doesn’t hit her notes and has a whine I’m not a fan of. I’m not sure what everyone is hearing!?
