LINK7-year-old Sammy is brought out again by Ryan to introduce her favorite, Ace Young. He's going to be singing In The Still of the Night, by the Five Satins, although he wants to make it more jazzy, being that he's changing it from a group song to a solo. Barry says when he first heard that, he thought, "oh no," but now thinks it's a fine choice. He likes that Ace made it his own, and says he sings it great too. He suggests Ace sing in the end in his famous falsetto, as "we all love that."
Ace was slightly pitchy with the first few notes, but all is forgiven when he brings it home. He puts every feeling he has into it. Not to mention the fact, that he ... well, to use a term from the 50s ... he is quite dreamy. Randy announces Ace is back. He likes that he took a classic and brought something fresh to it. Paula says she saw thirty-four sings for Ace that asked him to marry them. She thinks this was the sexiest, sultriest performance of the whole season. Simon says it wasn't the best vocal of the night, but it doesn't matter. He tells him he won't be in the bottom three this week, as it was one of his stronger performances.
I don't think he will be either.
