"The Voice" final performance show -- who did you like?

Just watching the end of tonight's final performance show of NBC's "The Voice". . . . I've really enjoyed this show and I'm glad it's coming back next season. I'm not sure if it'll be the same judges; I hope Adam Levine and Blake Shelton are back, definitely. (I don't particularly like Shelton's music, as it's too twangy for me, but he's been a great presence as coach/judge.)

Anyway, on to the performances. I thought Javier (Team Adam) was technically good but robotic and emotionless, though he was also maybe hampered by a boring song. Vicci did a better job with another weak song. Beverly was quite strong but I didn't like the hard rocking style as much as Vicci's or Dia's songs. And I thought Dia had the best singing performance, although I think Vicci and Beverly both had better stage presence.

I threw 10 votes (the max) on the Internet and 10 more by phone for Dia. I may throw some more votes toward Vicci -- you're limited to 10 votes per artist per method, but there's nothing that limits you to voting for only one contestant. Based on how the songs are trending on iTunes, it's looking like Dia is slightly ahead of Javier, and Vicci is way behind. Beverly's not even on the best selling list.

You can vote until 10 am Eastern time tomorrow.

Javier and Vicci's songs were BO-RING, synthetic pop tunes without really memorable hooks or any definite message. Totally and absolutely forgettable. Dia was good, but she's so sheepish. It's one thing to be quiet and introvertive and be a quasi-Norah Jones, but she actually looked like the shrank after her performance (partly because Christina and Adam were both kinda jerks to her). Beverly's song was the best (certainly the most memorable), and she gave a great performance. She seems like a slightly harder Melissa Etheridge to me.

This is the only episode I watched, so I don't know all the back story. I'd vote for Dia, but I am not sure she's ready to be a nationwide star. It's sad if Beverly doesn't get the mass appeal she deserves, but there might not be enough calling right now (pop music right now, except for Adelle and Mumford & Sons, seems either redone R&B or oversynthed Ke$ha and Katy Perry).
I guess I'm in the Beverly camp, but I'm not sure I'm going to spend the time voting...
