Interesting tidbit is that Levi's song was previously recorded by Bucky Covington. Just for those who are interested in these kinds of things. :)

Kellie Pickler, The Band Perry, and David Nail. Also love "Automatic," but it's already won twice now so it makes my choices easier to eliminate that one.

These were my votes as well. I actually like nearly every song in the poll quite a bit this week, although none of them are super exceptional. I like Lee's and Miranda's and the Swon Brothers' is pretty good as well but I like the 3 others just a bit more. Kellie's has a great sound to it--great production there, and I love her voice. David's song is another solid radio-friendly tune and of course he has a great voice as well. TBP's song is my favorite single from them since "Postcard From Paris" so it gets my 3rd vote.

Kellie is easily first, with Miranda and David right behind. Honorable mention to The Band Perry
