Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Oh man, that 2006 song thing was hysterical.

I kind of have to agree with the judges on this one. I don't think either Kameron or Lacey really had a good grip on the hip hop moves. Kameron didn't look heavy to me, he just didn't look committed to the movements. And Lacey was just too loosey-goosey looking, there was no precision to her.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Well, I just voted 5 times each for my favorite 4 couples and got through every time.

I've been trying to vote for Sabra and Dominic and I keep getting a busy signal! Must try harder.

I got through right on the jump, but if you're having trouble then maybe its a good sign.

This is crazy, I still can't get through. I'll keep trying, though, I really want to make sure my folks stick around.

Wow, I got all my 20 votes in within 5 minutes of the show ending.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I haven't had any trouble getting through. The occasional busy signal, but not consistent.

I would have been quicker if I wasn't a complete idiot. I thought they were 866 numbers, not 888. Once I realized I was dialing the wrong number, I dialed the right ones and got right through, of course.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I liked Mia's dance. I agree that criticism of the piece shouldn't reflect on the dancers-- particularly in that piece, the stylization of the piece might be weird, but the dance itself is not difficult to judge.

I thought it looked like Anya was favoring her ankle during the foxtrot. She didn't look right to me during the dance.

Also, Obama/Robson '08! Or I will settle for SYTYCD with all judging and choreography by Wade.
