I thought it was really good! This is my now was the winning song of the song writing competition. I really enjoyed how Blake sang it. It's not his genre so to speak, but he just sounded so peaceful with the song. I love Jordin all around, and I think her voice suited the song a little more than Blake's. They're making it such a tough competition, I definitely don't know who I want to win anymore. I'm leaning more towards Blake because I like his originality. But oohhhh, it's a toughie!

The song stunk! It wasn't a good choice for both contestants. After the first few bars when Blake sang it, I knew the song wasn't for him but it was going to be for Jordin. Jordin blew it out the box, as Randy would say. She sound so great with that song. I feel like the song was chosen for Jordin and that Blake didn't have a chance with it. Was that fair? I don't think so.
I didn't really care for the song but I loved hearing Jordin sing it.

I like Blake better all around because he's an amazing performer, but I do think Jordin's performance was better suited to the song. She sang it with a lot of power, even though I didn't really like the crying bit at the end... I KNOW she didn't mean to do it and she is really a sweet girl, but, I wonder if she is going to win sympathy points because of that.
As for the song, it wasn't the best in the world but it was okay. I think I can understand why it won the contest. It seems like good radio material and is fitting for the current music scene. It's also a bit catchy.

I agree it is a toughie!!! I am a Blake fan and i think he really did good tonight and would really love to see him win, but Jordin also did really well I really liked her version of "this is my now" it was so heart felt and emotional. Even though i love Blake i acaully dont think i could be dissapointed either way.
