The Voice 8 Top 8 iTunes Rankings (as of Noon)
Sawyer Fredericks didn’t make the top spot on iTunes, but #2 is pretty damn good. It didn’t take long for the young singer to hit the Top 10 after The Voice East coast broadcast ended. Sawyer is having an amazing run, topping the chart week after week. It’s hard to imagine him not taking it all. The Biggest Comeback Ever award goes to Joshua Davis who ranked 8 out of 10 entries on iTunes last week. This week, he hit #4 and will also receive the 10x vote bonus, along with Sawyer.
Kimberly Nichole almost made the Top 10. Nevertheless, I think she’s safe this week. And look at Corey Kent White. It looks like CeeLo Green didn’t’ sink him after all. Can’t say the same for Hannah Kirby. Do you think it was the dancing and singing kiddos who sunk her? That vocal was solid.
Predicting the bottom 3 will be hard this week. Meghan Linsey, India Carney, Koryn Hawthorne (!!!) and Hannah Kirby all have a shot at it. I am baffled by Koryn’s poor showing on the chart. She had the pimp spot! Yes, there were issues with that vocal to be sure, but it was so emotional. I felt it! I don’t get you, America.

29. India Carney – Over the Rainbow
35. Koryn Hawthorne – Girl On Fire
39. Hannah Kirby – We Don’t Need Another Hero

The Voice 8 – Top 8 – Favorite OVERAll Team
Team Pharrell is going to win this cycle. (Sawyer!). Except for Joshua Davis, Team Adam is a fail. If Adam wants to stay in the game, he needs to back off and allow Joshua to drive the bus. The singer can get himself into the final without his help. Maybe the coach needs to take a season or two off.
- Team Pharrell 45.77%
- Team Christina 33.51%
- Team Blake 11.71%
- Team Adam 9.01%
The Voice 8 – Top 8 – Who SHOULD go Home
Hannah Kirby and Corey Kent White are the favorites to go. I think y’all are going to be 50% disappointed.
- Hannah Kirby 37.14%
- Corey Kent White 34.89%
- India Carney 7.4%
- Joshua Davis 5.31%
- Sawyer Fredericks 5.31%
- Meghan Linsey 4.98%
- Koryn Hawthorne 2.89%
- Kimberly Nichole 2.08%
The Voice 8 – Top 8 – Who WILL go Home
I don’t think Corey Kent White is going anywhere this week. Hannah Kirby is probably making her first and last appearance in the bottom 3.
- Hannah Kirby 53.57%
- Corey Kent White 16.17%
- India Carney 11.83%
- Koryn Hawthorne 6.26%
- Meghan Linsey 5.04%
- Joshua Davis 3.83%
- Sawyer Fredericks 2.26%
- Kimberly Nichole 1.04%
Prediction: This is a tough one. We could be in for some surprises. But I will say: Hannah Kirby, India Carney and Koryn Hawthorne in the bottom 3. Meghan Linsey could make an appearance instead of Koryn. Either Koryn or Meghan will win a sing off against Hannah and India. Hannah and India go home. India definitely, because she and America just have not connected.
