So there are many of you who loyally watch these shows and, like me, make continual comments to the television whether anyone else is in the room or not. Alternately, there are many of you who do not have the time to keep up with reality TV – there are too many shows, your tivos runneth over, you have kids and can’t remember what it’s like to watch anything beyond Dora the Explorer (you know who you are) – but you also want to be “in the know.” That’s fine. Let me help you understand.

The Voice Top 8 Eliminations: There's A New Wind Blowin'

My how this season has flown by...or maybe it feels that way because all of the seasons run together. Either way, we have already reached the Top 6 reveal and the finale is only weeks away now. We had some seriously stellar performances last night and I'm going into this elimination a bit nervous for my girls. I just love them so. Are all of those big voices going to make it through to the next round? Let's find out.

Jason Derulo is in the house tonight and he invites India and Kimberly to join him for "Want To Want Me." Neat. Rozzi Crane also performs, representing Adam's label 222 Records with her single "Psycho." I know very little about her but I do enjoy the song. And finally, Corey accompanies Lee Brice for a duet of Lee's single "Drinking Class." Uh, technically Corey isn't old enough to drink but we'll overlook that. 

Results! Carson begins sending contestants to safety and Joshua's name is announced first. Team Adam lives to see another day. Joshua is joined by Sawyer and Meghan, and after some commercials and filler, Kimberly and Koryn make it through to the Top 6. This leaves Hannah, Corey and India in the bottom 3 and vying for the stupid Twitter save. 

Hannah sings "Radioactive" as her "save me" song and it's just okay for me. Corey goes with Keith Urban's "Somebody Like You" and it's the best performance he's given in weeks. I guess song choice is key? India performs "Human" by Christina Perri and brings the house down even though the the opening of the song is rough. The results of the stupid Twitter save are incredibly close, but India wins it in the end. I'm very happy with how this played out.

So Blake loses two of his contestants tonight and the Top 6 consists of artists from each team. Xtina and Pharrell have two people left in the competition and Blake and Adam are down to one each. Next week these hopefuls will perform once more, all of them with their eyes on the prize.  Can India win America over next week? Will Sawyer's fans propel him ahead of the remaining women in the competition? Does Joshua have a hope in hell of winning at this point? All will be revealed in the coming weeks. Til then!
