Scotty McCreery, “Letters From Home”: 18
The performance was not perfect, but I had to give it points for the perfect song choice. I loved how casually he sat on the stool and sang like he was in his living room.

Stefano Langone, “Just the Way You Are”: 17
What a dramatic arrangement! I thought he sounded good, but it’s always tricky when you pick songs that are currently on the radio. And I’m not sure why JLo made that face. I thought he hit his high note better than James did.
And Ryan sets him up by asking him if he was singing that song to anyone and he answers, “That was for all the ladies out there.” Ryan probably just won him a couple hundred more votes…
