If a song was made for Elise this was it!  Great performance for me, and it should definitely keep her around for another week (though with the numbers it is possible she hits bottom three - someone has to).

I wish people would give Elise credit for the lovely melodic changes she did. They were subtle, but if you listen, she really made this her own, but gave credit to the original. Love it! <3

 @jlscott13 I loved it Jason...I love this girl. If she isn't in the finals...what a fucking joke.

@Mikhail XO @jlscott13 No offense, but this was NOT in "Whole Lotta Love" and "Vienna" level. Just glorified and overrated. That praise was more deserved for Haley than Eise. No wonder I have a hard time warming up to her.

@Mikhail XO @Mikhail @jlscott13 Sure, you'd entitled to your opinion, but was the prickish statement to Jessica necessary? And I was only criticizing her performance. But seriously, don't be such an a**hat!

 @jpad319  @Mikhail  @jlscott13 Again...it's your opinion. I liked Haley last season...a lot. In fact, I was rooting for her to win in the final 3. I think Elise did a great job here...she delivered to my expectation and that's all I care about. You can go back to Jessica's thread and lionize your little robot if that's your wish...

Not Elise's best, but I really liked it. Haley's personality grated on my nerves so much that I had to leave the room when she sang.

@vjwilkinson The moment I saw a Haley criticism coming up, I thought the argument was asinine. But seriously, Haley had a lot more charm than Elise does. As for the performance, way glorified.

Lady Gaga and Elise were separated at birth.

Why do we always have to compare.. they have to different voices.. with a different take..

Haley's version is better.. she puts alot of emotions in the song.. Elise's version is something like someone talking in long rhymes....

I do love Haley's version, believe me, but Elise's version has a grittier and more passionate fervor that I just get swallowed up in. :)

Definitely not better than Haley's version that's for sure. and Lady Gaga actually sings it better in her live performances.

This is really good, but Haley's version is still untouchable (aside from Gaga of course). Gosh, I just remembered how in love I was with Haley. sigh..

Seriously, Rickey's taste level - I just can't. This over Haley's? Save Philip Phillips? My god you don't deserve ti recap singing shows.

 @bananafries Haley's was relaxed and she was at home on the stage. I felt like Elise had a lot of nerves.

 @bananafries Contrived is probably a better word. I know it's harsh, but I wouldn't put this in the top rung of performances for the night.

She shouldn't do Gaga.  She sounds and looks too much like her.

.....I'm really sorry...but I didn't like it ;_____; I'm trying to find the good things about it but I can't. She went back to many of the things that made her bad like trying to adjust the melody when she just can't. She got shouty to make up for garbling the notes (like Philip) and she didn't handle the song with care except for the first thirty seconds.

 @takakupo What are u listening to. Thats exactly how the song is suppose to be sung. She was amazing

 @beachboydave No. No, no, no. I love "You and I" with a passion and Lady Gaga does not shout. She sings the song and the last half of Elise's performance wasn't great. In my opinion, it was a stumble.

"So much better than Haley Reinhart"... okay lets not get crazy here.  Elise was good tonight, but I refuse to compare her and Haley.

 @bwatt27 I love both versions.  They both did a great rendition of this song.  :)
