Our first contestant tonight is Steven Flowers, a musical theatre performer from Brooklyn, NY

No. 5: Category/Song: Grammy Winners/“What’s Love Got to Do With It” (Tina Turner), 7 missing words for $50,000

No. 7: Category/Song: Funk/“Brick House” (The Commodores), 10 missing words for $100,000
“Ow she’s a brick house, well ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___ 🟪 ___”

Steven filled in the blanks with “she’s the one, the only one built like an Amazon”. Not feeling confident about the last part of that, Steven used his second word to check the last word. It was “goes”, not “Amazon”. Now he knew he was on the wrong track. He used his last word to check on word #7. With those two verified words, it looked like this: “she’s the one, the only one HOW like an GOES”. Steven called his back up singer, Tim, to the stage but Tim didn’t know “Brick House” at all! So Steven chose to walk away with his $75,000. Steven’s “Amazon” lyric is a part of “Brick House” but the word preceding that line is “Yeah.”
