Judges' Comments
- Randy: "I really believe that this is one of the important weeks on the show. You guys are really telling us who you really are. I thought it was a pretty good song choice, but it had some pitch problems. I don't believe that's who you are. I don't buy that you are in any way like Aerosmith."
- Paula: "Are we done Randy? I couldn't disagree more. First of all, I think it was a perfect song for you to pick. You sound as good as you look. The high notes that you hit, I think my chihuahua's are going to come join you on stage."
- Simon: "I thought it was a very good performance. I'm slightly with Randy on this though, I don't like it when you do an impersonation of a rock star. I prefer it with a with a more blues R&B thing in your voice. I thought it was a little bit wanna-be-ish."
