Congratulations to Jermaine Paul, winner of season two of The Voice.

Since I have no beef with how the voting turned out, I want to talk about the show and differences from last year.

Both seasons have featured duets with the contestants and coaches. What I missed this year was the meaningful duets of contestants and other singers. Last year, Javier sang with Stevie Nicks, and it was amazing.

I also missed each of the contestants getting their own original song. It is nice to make a song your own, but it’s better when the song actually is your own.
