Commentary:

Randy: "This kind of music could definitely suit your voice. You could make an album out of it. I don't know if that was a stellar performance for me, there were some pitch problems and sometimes you rushed the music a little bit. But it was alright."
Paula: "What's great about you is that you're consistent. Your are who you are ... You have an emotional connection with each song that you pick. And I think that's what record companies and executive want. You are Brooke White: excellent and wonderful."
Simon: "I totally disagree with Paula, because I think what was lacking on that song was any emotion. It looked like you were busking your way through the song. I thought all of you looked very odd together as a group ... It wasn't one of your better performances ... I wasn't that crazy about it." The music cut him off during the end of this critique.
