I think Melanie did Adele better than Adele. Not my favorite Adele song but I liked the faster tempo in the Melanie version. I would have rather had Melanie sing “Rolling in the Deep” if she was going to do Adele.
The Whitney/Mariah song “When You Believe” even though well sung was predictable. Not my favorite but she sang it phenomenally well and I’d rather lister to Melanie sing it than Whitney/Mariah.
It’s still amazing to me that she has never been “pitchy” the entire season through and never missed a note.
