GEMMA ily
I love them all! More of this Jimmy! ?
gemma definitely listens to phoebe bridgers
Dogecoin to the moon ???
Both excellent songs, this is a great segment
GEMMA!!!!! Amazing
They were both good it's just that Franklin needed banjo in his song
This skit can go
Gemma must be a singer for real
YAY someone from Maine!!!!!!
Olive joose
Franklin's song was so sweet and clever. I want to hear the rest of the lyrics.
I’m sorry but I heard a louder audience response for Franklin’s song even though I personally liked Gemma’s. They were both good. I just have a soft spot for the banjo because my Uncle Roger Bland was a master on the 5 string and played with some of the greatest Bluegrass and Country music artists.
I really loved "If you're running short of pesos / You can borrow from Jeff Bezos". That is brilliant.
Franklin Rankin is my band teacher!
Gemma was fantastic!
Wait a minute… "met a girl in a bakery today […] and I couldn't help but come back the next day"? So… tomorrow?
AWESOME GUYS
Both did great??. So much fun
Everyone should enjoy Franklin!!!! And Venmo him
How cute! They were both really good.
Gemma reminds me of The Mother from How I Met Your Mother-not just her appearance, but the style of her music.
They were both great!
Did the sweatshirts and Samsungs come from Elon Musk?
i have a voice too, need that free laptop
Is it just me or did anyone else think Cake was a ref to butts? but she went literal, which is what was expected. But it would have been so funny if she especially went metaphorical Cake
This https://youtu.be/WIirsiMErCc is what happened.
that was awesome- loved both songs 🙂
Remember God loves you???..
John 3:16
For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life.
Please repent, change your life around and live for Him??.
He is coming back soon ??……..
We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I (do I)
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
?
Gemma was awesome
Hard choice … they both did amazing!!! What a fun segment !!

The type of song & singing, doesn't go with the Banjo, at all.
This was coordinated.. both wearing plaid? Just serendipity?!
The audience response sounded the same to me and I agree… they were equally great. I really couldn't choose… but congratulations Gemma.
On the fly song writing greats!
