Sing-off
Well, the Committed boys brought it, but I think it`s clear to me at this point that Streetcorner Symphony are far and away my favorite. I still love the redemption story of the Persuasions guy, but he doesn`t need to win; at this point his career is momentarily rekindled regardless.
She's terse. I can be terse. Once in flight school, I was laconic.

Because books.
Streetcorner Symphony is my favorite, too, by a lot. And my least favorite is the Backbeats. I'm not sure what they're still doing there, because they always sound too ... contrived? Over-produced, if that's possible? (Maybe I should say over-arranged.)
I am sorry Groove For Thought went home, but "Changes" really isn't a hard rock song, and I think that counted against them.

Streetcorner Symphony should not be allowed to dance under any conditions.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, last weekend, I was watching some Millionaire Matchmaker (as you do), and one of the women was super-familiar. I thought maybe she had been on an earlier episode of MM, but no. I thought maybe Tough Love? But no. So I just scoured the VH1 website, until I figured out she was the runner-up on the Antonio Sabato Jr show. FML.

Loving all of that crap really is my (not so) secret shame.

I think that losing the words and going off key was what killed them, although I didn't like their song. It was the first time I'd seen the show, but the two songs I saw were very jazzy. I understand that they have their style, but they need to be able to adapt to the challenge. But, again, I'm a first timer.
I liked Committed a lot, loved both of their songs. I thought that their first critique was really harsh, but if they'd knocked it out of the park before, I can see how this was just "good".
As with Jesse, I loved all of the "guilty pleasure" songs. "Kyrie" was amazing. Made me want to pull out my Mr. Mister LPs. I would have no where to play them, but I could get them out.

I'm pretty sure I had the 45 of "Kyrie," Vortex. Sniffle.

I may have downloaded "Kyrie", "Is This Love", and "Broken Wings".

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I love Kyrie, even though it makes no sense.
