Wondering how your favorite Voice contestant has faired on iTunes over the course of Season 12?

I was, so I put together the following list.

The take-aways.

1. Only three singers have earned bonus points for landing in the Top 10 on the iTunes singles chart so far over the course of Season 12 — Brennley Brown, Lauren Duski and Hunter Plake.

2. Hunter and Lauren have each turned that trick twice, so they hold the bonus points edge heading into this week. That said, each singer performs twice in the semifinals and three times in the finals, so there’s still time to make up ground.

3. Lauren has the most successful single so far in Season 12 in terms of chart performance. Her Top 11 week cover of “Somewhere in My Broken Heart” was number two on overall singles chart when voting ended that week. It was number one on the country singles chart.

4. Jesse Larson is clearly gaining traction with Voice fans. He didn’t even crack the Top 200 in the first four rounds of the competition. Now he’s charted three straight weeks and cracked the Top 20 the past two.

The chart performances for each member of the Top 8 follows.

The semifinals are Monday night at 8 p.m., with the top four singers advancing to next week’s Season 12 Voice finale.

I’ll be blogging live and providing song by song grades during Monday’s show, so feel free to follow along.

      Some of these songs eventually charted higher than what I have them listed as. But to be fair, I had to pick a specific time — usually noon the day after the performance — which is when voting ends for live shows — to take everyone’s ranking. Otherwise, I’d have to check the iTunes rankings continuously for 2-3 days to get everyone’s peak positions.
