You're amazing.

I've ever seen and you're up there.
You're playing the tambourine with your damn feet

Hi, Melanie
I really just thought that it really came to like when you hit the high note
You got the higher registers out and then to turn around and see you looking so unique and playing the tambourine with your feet
Like this is like awesome
You know what I'm saying?
So like that you need kind of a quirk it really does work for me and what a great rendition of Britney Spears toxic, too _ _ _ _
_ _ Responsive what Blake said [Bb] earlier the battle has [Ab] begun now they're [B] fighting over _ _ _
Originality and uniqueness in your
_ _ [N] _ _
Providing the people with a reference that I just happened to pick up on I don't think that you'd only sound like Bjork.
Thank you
And so I think that's what I'll leave you with before you choose me _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I too heard
originality in your voice and the parts where
You know you were to bring more power to the situation and take it [Bb] somewhere else you actually did
But seeing the three of these guys turned around I was kind of like well
She's probably [G] in pretty good hands and there's gonna [B] be quite the battle.
So maybe I'll just sit this one out
[A] So choice is yours my dear
_ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ Okay, um, thank you guys so much first of all for turning around [A] I'm like gonna cry [C] right now
but I think that my adrenaline just [B] like I don't know but um, _ [F] _
I
_ _ _ Ultimately [F] want to go with someone who let me express my creativity and
Someone [G] who will let me be _ me.
