Description:

When I heard Stephanie was gonna sing this song, I got excited. Than I got a little nervous. Not only was it incredibly slower than anything she had previously done, but it's a song Nadia Turner took over during Season 4 and did flawlessly. I still listen to her rendition and play it over and over again, my heart jumping a little bit when she lets go of the mic stand and sings to the audience. It's THAT good. Would Stephanie capture the same intensity and deliver vocals that'd make it one of the standout performances of her own season? Unfortunately... no. It didn't work. I watch both back to back and try to find out where they differ. Why was Nadia's so great and why did Stephanie's not measure up (for me). All I can see is that Stephanie seemed to be holding back. Her vibrato failed her when going for notes longer than 2 seconds, and she seemed uncomfrotable the entire time. Nadia just put it all out there and sang it perfect. It's extremely unfair to compare both of them, because they both had different styles and did their own thing throughout the competition (despite both finishing in less-than-perfect 11th and 8th place). Both could've won.
