Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Within an hour of Monday’s first live show, Jordan Smith had already cracked the Top 10 on the iTunes Top 200 with his cover of Beyonce’s “Halo.”

And you can chalk up bonus points for Jordan, meaning he’s most certainly bound for the finals.

By the time iTunes voting ended at noon EST Tuesday, Jordan had climbed to number three on the chart. The only songs doing better — Adele’s “Hello” and Justin Bieber’s “Sorry.”

The 22-year-old Jordan was one of six members of Team Adam to perform during the first night of the live playoffs.

That group included Chance Pena, who got the coach’s comeback honor for Team Adam.

The two singers who accumulate the most votes and iTunes downloads will automatically advance to next week’s finals.

Then Adam will have to choose one of the remaining four singers to advance.

As of noon, here’s how the members of Team Adam were doing on iTunes.

Jordan Smith, “Halo” — number 3 on the iTunes’ Top 200; number 3 on the pop chart

Amy Vachal, “The Way You Look Tonight” — number 29 on the iTunes’ Top 200; number 20 on the pop chart

Shelby Brown, “You’re No Good” — number 66 on the iTunes’ Top 200; number 14 on the country chart

Blaine Mitchell, “Never Tear Us Apart” — number 75 on the iTunes’ Top 200; number 1 on the rock chart

Chance Pena, “Barton Hollow” — number 80 on the iTunes’ Top 200; number 7 on the alternative chart

Keith Semple, “To Be With You” — number 115 on the iTunes’ Top 200; number 3 on the rock chart
