Vocal Masterclass Discussion For Season 3 Of The Voice: The Finale

December 17, 2012 by Masterclass Lady 25 Comments


It was hard for me to add this blog topic this week. The tragic events at Sandy Hook Elementary School have left me despondent and disheartened. However, maybe a little music and craziness – the good kind – will put a little smile in our hearts and on our faces. A little one. So, in […]

The Top 4 are scheduled to perform on The X Factor Wednesday on Fox from 8:00 – 10:00 P.M. with the results to be revealed on Thursday at 8:00 P.M. I guess each act will be performing two songs apiece. Otherwise, this will be the longest show in reality show history. I can’t wait to […]

Vocal Masterclass Discussion For Season 3 Of The Voice: The Top Four Results Show

December 11, 2012 by Masterclass Lady 7 Comments


Well that was quite the Performance Show last evening, wasn’t it? All four singers came out fighting and, overall, the performances were pretty even across the board. Young Trevin Hunte faltered a bit, I thought, and I was upset for him. And, from the look on his face, he knew that his performance was not […]

Vocal Masterclass Discussion For Season 3 Of The Voice: The Top Six Perform

December 3, 2012 by Masterclass Lady 33 Comments


Is anyone except me not surprised that Team Christina has zero singers left in this competition? As soon as Top 8 Finalist, Dez Duron, signed on with her Team, it was game over. She doesn’t play fair and, indirectly, disses the other judges and their singers. As a result, the fans ignore her and her […]
