Amy Vachal needs your votes on "The Voice" tonight


Amy Vachal
BEFORE she was "discovered" and auditioned for The Voice, Amy Vachal was playing the small cafes in Manhattan and Brooklyn. 

In the accompanying video, the Filipina/American singer performed La Vie en Rose made famous by the famous French chanteuse Edith Piaf. Take this song as a fitting tribute to Parisians, still suffering from the terrorist attacks from last weekend.

After barely scraping by in the Knockout rounds where she had to be "saved" by her coach, the New Jersey-raised Vachal was able to get enough viewer votes last week to make it to the Top 11 this week.


Even though the soft, sultry jazz style of the singer has impressed the judges, the American voting audience appears to favor the more familiar religious, country or blues singing of the other contestants so Vachal will need all the votes she can get from us.

The fate of the remaining performers on the show is now left in the hands of the viewing audience. You Asian/American social networkers out there - and I know that there are lot of you in greater proportion to our population percentage - should get busy on the keyboards tonight and vote for Amy so she can make it to the finals in December.

The Voice airs tonight, 8 p.m./7 p.m. central on NBC.


How to vote on "The Voice"

There is a strict 14-hour voting window from the end of the show (between 9:55 p.m. ET to 12 p.m. ET the following day). That seems unfair for the voters on the West Coast because their voting period is done at 9 p.m. PST.  Voters from Hawaii, where Vachal receives a lot of support have an even shorter period to vote. Each person can vote up to 40 times total (10 votes per each of the four ways).

1. iTunes: downloading a song counts as 10 votes. (Bonus: if it reaches the top ten on the charts it gets multiplied by 10.) (1 download per person = 10 votes)

2. Facebook: vote on The Voice Facebook page via this link. (up to 10 times per person total)

3. The App : Download The Voice App on your phone (up to 10 times total)

4. NBC.com : (up to 10 times total) #TheVoice
