The Sing Off:The Finals...Are there really losers? (12/21/10)

It's hard to sit here and go through last night's show. It was a really entertaining night of TV. The performances with the special guests were amazing and enjoyable. So I guess I could go through the final four performances of the season like I did every other episode. So let's get into it, but this time in order of elimination...

Jerry Lawson & Talk of the Town
Final Song: OJays-Love Train
Thoughts: This show was about the groups, no pressure and this performance showed. My major question all night was what happened to Jerry? When they taped the previous episodes he didn't have a cane, and last night he did and majorly needed it. At least it didn't hurt the performance. Overall, a great way to end the run for these guys, they went out with major class.
Rating: 10

Backbeats
Final Song: Katy Perry-Firework
Thoughts: You know if they did this performance sooner, they might have made it to the final two. Talk about taking a song that we've heard a thousand times and making it their own. This was awesome. Never thought I'd hear a guy doing this song, let alone do it like a duet, but it totally worked. They proved why they came this far and showed alot. They went out with a major bang.
Rating: 10

Street Corner Symphony
Final Song: Coldplay-Fix You
Thoughts: Well, these guys were my pick going into the night and when they were announced as the final two I was really excited. This was a great way to show how great they are. Unfornately I wish they were given the WHOLE performance to sing just them. But for what it was, it was fantastic. These guys aren't going anywhere, at least I hope not. I'd totally pick up their CD.
Rating: 10

Commited
Final Song: Michael Jackson & Akon-Hold My Hand
Thoughts: Well these are your Sing Off champs. I'm not surprised at all, I figured they had it in the bag from the first episode. They deserved it. As for this performance, it was a great showcase of what they can do. It might not have been their BEST, but it's very hard for them to top themselves after everything they did. It was a great way for them to finish their run. Congrats to Commited!

The Sing Off:The Road to the Finals (12/15/10)

In what, I have to admit, is the shortest reality ever created it's already the next to last episode before the finale. How did that happen? Too soon. Anyway let's get right into it...

On The Rocks
Medley:Elton John
Thoughts:This was really good. They really surprised me.
Rating:9

Rating:10

Street Corner Symphony
Medley:The Beatles
Thoughts:Talk about setting the bar high for themselves by taking on the biggest group ever. Seemingly seemless and fun to listen to. Very awesome!
Rating:10
Status after First Song:Safe
Judge's Choice:Creedence Clearwater Revival-Down on the Corner
Thoughts:Amazing. That was incredible. I loved that version better than the original. This was so entertaining and I love how they fit their name into the song. Can I rank a song higher than a 10?
Rating:10

Backbeats
Medley:Lady Gaga
Thoughts:You know if Gaga music sounded like this I might be a fan of more than one song. Tough to pull off but damn they proved why they are here.
Rating:9
Status after First Song:Safe
Judge's Choice:Fleetwood Mac-Landslide
Thoughts:I was really worried in the beginning, I didn't think it was sounding that good. Then they picked it up and sounded great. Just wish it was a little longer because it felt like they just getting into a groove and it was over.
Rating:9

Jerry Lawson & Talk of the Town
Medley:Ottis Redding
Thoughts:This was really good but my issue is that it's expected for them. This is their music. So for that reason I have to drop it a point.
Rating:9

Judge's Choice:The Animals-House of the Rising Sun
Thoughts:Wow. They literally blew this out of the water. I want to pick them apart but can't. This was fantastic.

Two songs. Two chances to shine. Not much to say. Let's just get into it.

On The Rocks

Rating:9

Groove For ThoughtRock Song:David Bowie-Changes
Thoughts:This was really good for the ears. Very laid back and enjoyable.
Rating:8

It's A Glee Christmas (12/7/10)

Last night was the final episode of Glee for 2010 (more of that later) and with that came the much anticipated Christmas episode. This show was what I expected, a fun roller coaster. I loved the fact that it felt like a combination of a cheesy holiday special and a parody of The Grinch. Also they fit just enough songs in to make the episode work and flow well. (On the record, yes there is a full Glee Christmas album, but unlike some Gleeks I didn't expect them to fit all the songs in the show, especially the religious one.) Before I get into the songs I will address two scenes from the show that I loved. Beiste had to be one of the sweetest Santas ever with Brittney and the sight of Artie walking sent chills up and down my spine. With that said, let the Christmas spirit ring, and let's get into the music...


New Directions-The Most Wonderful Day of the Year
Most people, like myself, know this song as the misfit toys song from Rudolph. When I heard this on the Christmas album, I really wanted them to find a way to fit it into the show. I'm so glad they did, especially since it was just sung for the fun of it with no real meaning. It's a PERFECT Christmas song for this show and was really fun to watch. A


New Directions-We Need A Little Christmas

You know you aren't popular when you get a shoe thrown at you in the middle of singing. I really wanted to hear more of this song because I love this song so much. For what was heard, it was good. B

Rachel-Merry Christmas, Darling

I know this song is a Christmas classic by The Carpenters, but I've never been a huge fan of it. Maybe it was the fact that my mom overplayed it or whatever, still wasn't sure what to expect. Lea blew it out of the water. I really loved it and made me really like this song. A

Blaine & Kurt-Baby, It's Cold Outside

Can these two sing a duet every week? They don't even have to get together, just let them sing. This was amazing. Their voices meshed perfectly and the flirtation was adorable. This was so well done and can listen and watch over and over again and not have a problem with it at all. A+

K.D. Lang-You're A Mean One, Sue The Grinch

Yes, you read that right, K.D. Lang made a singing cameo on this episode. As far as making Sue look like pure evil again, I loved it. As a montage it was great. Was it over the top? Totally. But for a Grinch parody it was perfect for what it was needed for. B+

Rachel & Finn-Last Christmas

I honestly thought that they were going to forget about this song. When Rachel mentioned Wham!, it then dawned on me that they released this song last year as a single. It was well done in my opinion. It was the closure we needed to end this half of the season for these two. Plus who doesn't love a good duet in a Christmas Tree lot? A

New Directions-Welcome Christmas

This song has been stuck in my head since last night. ND sang this to the faculty to help raise money for charity. (something they tried to do when singing We Need A Little Christmas earlier in the show, when they went caroling classroom to classroom, which was an awful mistake) It was beautiful and just great for the ears. For the first time they sounded like a well put together choir instead of a club of random people. A great way to end it. Especially with Sue watching and having the Grinch change of heart.  A+

That's it. That's Glee for 2010. There's alot of confusion on various web sites on why FOX is let the show take time off till February. Well last year, they went off the air in December and didn't return until the middle of April. I have no problem with this little breaks. The reruns will still be on, the fans can take a break from the show and then get refreshed for regionals and finally nationals. So until Super Bowl Sunday, that's it for this gleek.

The Sing Off-The Return (12/6/10)

Well I have a feeling this show is going to be my new obsession, too bad it only last three weeks. For those who don't know what this show is, it's a pure accapella singing only competition with ten groups who have to sing songs, but without a band, so they have to use the groups' voices to supply the music. I missed season one, for whatever reason, but I'm definately not missing season two. So here we go...

Johan Hedberg 4-3-1 2.66 GAA .910% 1 SO

Mike McKenna 0-1 3.00 GAA .899%

Progress. That seems to be the word that best describes the month of November for the Devils. When the month started I was ready to hit the panic button on the franchise. Then again when this month started, Johan Hedberg wasn't the starter because Marty is having issues with his elbow. Now, hard to believe, things are getting better. I have alot of confidence in the Elias-Arnott-Tedenby line anytime they are on the ice. Even the Rolston-Zubrus-Clarkson line is hot right now. They just need to be consistent. They can't beat a team like the Capitals 5-0 and then turn around lay an egg when playing the crappy Islanders.

There is still alot of work to do but for the first time all season I can say I see hope. Do I think they will make the playoffs right now? No I don't. Oddly I'm okay with that. I think missing the playoffs this year for the first time since 1996 might be what this team needs right now.

Glee:Return to Sectionals (11/30/10)

Last year when the Sectionals episode aired, it was hyped more and it was the fall finale. This year, it was kinda almost forgotten about till like two or three weeks ago and then thrown on the air. But honestly, this year's competition was ALOT better than last year's. This year it wasn't a total given that New Directions was going to win, which was needed. Plus with all the drama that went on this week (Kurt starting up in Dalton, Rachel finding out that Finn lied to her about having sex with Santana last year which led to Rachel hooking up with Puck and Tina and Artie thinking that Britney and Mike were cheating on them and Emma going off to Vegas and marrying Carl much to Will's behest) it made for a very intersesting hour of television. So without further ado let's get into the performances. (Which by the way, I appreciated the fact that the first song didn't come till almost halfway through the episode, it helped set up all the storylines.)

Rachel and Kurt-Don't Cry for Me Argentina
First of all, I want to note that as much of a musical buff that I am, I had never actually heard this song in full till I d/led the tracks (more on that in a second) on ITunes. That being said, I'm glad they sang this like when they did Defying Gravity last season. It's always great to hear Lea belt out Broadway numbers and for Chris to just nail this was awesome. Rachel was helping Kurt so she sang by herself and Kurt was performing to Warblers trying to earn a solo. As a performance it was good, but major kudos to the editing team to make his performance great. My only issue has nothing to do with the show itself but the fact that they didn't release the TV version of the song, which I would have loved, and instead seperate verisons of Lea and Chris doing the song solo. I didn't like that, but that has nothing to do with the performance on the show. B+

Warren Township Hipsters-The Living Years
What can I say? The old people were really good. Definately didn't expect that. They made the competition a three team show instead of a two team show which I appreciated. B

Dalton Academy Warblers-Hey, Soul Sister
Now come the all boys choir that now Kurt is apart of. I really enjoyed this performance and the simple choreographed steps actually added to the song. It wa simply amazing to listen to and watch. I will note that Kurt didn't look like he belonged there at all, but I guess for the rest of the season I'll just have to get used to him. A+

Sam and Quinn-(I've Had) The Time of My Life
I've already read it other places that people are slamming this performance, but I didn't think it was bad at all. It gave two new people a chance to shine plus it showed the insane chemistry between the two of them. (The fact is that now they are the power couple in ND because of the ensuing Finn/Rachel breakup, they needed this performace to show how great they are together.) A This is the song that started their set, which led to...

New Directions-Valerie
Until yesterday I had never actually heard this song and I'm not sure if I even like it to be honest. But what this song did was give Santana the spotlight to lead the song and give Britney and Mike a chance to show their AMAZING dancing skills. This was one of the standout performances of the season by far and it was a nice change of pace to have a major competition and for ND not to do a classic rock song. A+

In a strange turn of a events, the Warblers and New Directions ended up tied at first place and both advance onto the Regionals to face Vocal Adrenaline later in the year.

New Directions-Dog Days Are Over
Due to being depressed about her breakup with Finn, Rachel passes on a solo to finish the show and gives the oppurtunity to Tina and Mercedes who led the group in this song. Them singing this for me, actually made the song alot better than the orginial. As a performance it was alright, a good song to end this round but at the same time just felt incomplete. Not sure why. B+

Well, that's in for Sectionals but before the road to Regionials can start in 2011, next week is the Glee Christmas special which will be the final episode of 2010, aka the fall finale.

WWE King of the Ring 2010

This Monday night WWE is holding an old tradition King of the Ring during a three hour Raw. Since this year they are actually taking it serious and had qualifing matches and have all eight people announced, instead of being at random like last time, I wanted to make a mock bracket and my picks on who I think should advance and should win.

Sheamus over Kofi Kingston
John Morrison over Drew McIntyre

Celebrity Apprentice 2011 Cast

The last couple of years, I, much like alot of people have gotten obsessed with the celebrity version of the popular show The Apprentice. Well since I'll be watching and review I figured I'd look over the list of celebrities that I will be seeing in this different world.

David Cassidy
Dionnee Warick
Gary Busey
Hope Dworaczyk
John Rich
Jose Canseco
La Toya Jackson
Lil Jon
Lisa Rinna
Mark McGrath
Marlee Matlin
Meat Loaf
NeNe Leakes
Niki Taylor
Richard Hatch
Star Jones

This has to be the most random and diverse group of people that Trump has ever recruited for his show. I know what to make of it but I'm definately looking forward to it come March.

A Glee Wedding Night (11/23/10)

Well last night's Glee was alot of fun and had alot of unexpected turns a great roller coaster ride. Finn and Kurt's parents got married, Sue married herself, Sue's mom is a Nazi hunter and we can say that in a way we all related to the episode. There weren't many songs but that's just the way I like it. Let's get right into it shall we?


Doris & Sue-Ohio
This was bad. I know it's Carol Burnett and hearing Jane Lynch sing is usually really good, but other than the fight in the middle, I didn't like this at all. I mean I won't fail mainly because of the train wreck factor, I just couldn't look away and it was awesomely bad. C-

New Directions (and Burt and Carol)-Marry You
This took me by surprise. I had never heard this song before, but now I was to d/l the original. This was fun, bouncy and an awesome start to a wedding. Just to see the bride and groom (Burt and Carol) dance just made it even better. Only in a musical can you get away with a wedding like this. A+

Will-Sway
This was just pure talent. I have no problem once a week just giving Matthew Morrison a chance to shine at something new. This was amazing to listen to and fun to watch. I would love to dance around a room with Mandy to this song. Anytime. A

Finn-Just The Way You Are
This might be my favorite performance of the whole season. It was musically amazing, the song was sang with passion and the moment was chilling. To have Finn and Kurt dance, now as brothers, was a moment that is the definition of why I LOVE musicals. It's going to take a lot to top that moment but this show has always been up to the challenge. A+

Overall a great night. Now it's on to sectionals next week. The big news going into that night is the fact that Kurt transferred and is now going to Dalton after the whole Karofsky harassment storyline. While I'm not happy about it, it should be a fun night.

Dancing with the Stars:The Finale Part 2 (11/23/10) *Live Blog*

For the first time all season, I'm actually writing this review as I watch the show. I've actually been looking forward to this show all day, actually more than Glee, hard to believe eh? So I will be doing this on the fly and by pure reaction and without much thought including my honest reaction to the winner.

Kyle and Lacey
Favorite Dance:Tango (This was one of my favorite dance of the season by them. They were awesome so there's alot to live up to.)
Judge's Original Score: 23
Judge's Score: 26
Personal Rating: *****
Okay I still don't get how Adam Lambert is rock, but for tonight I will just ignore that. Okay this is alot more intense than the first time, and ALOT cleaner. You can totally tell that Kyle has drasticly improved.

Bristol and Mark
Favorite Dance:Tango (What is with the Rock week dances? I thought this was one of her best, but should be interseting how she redoes it,)
Judge's Original Score: 23
Judge's Score: 25
Personal Rating: ****
Wow, Bristol HAS LEARNED. Totally alot smoother than the first time but to be honest not as much energy as the first time. Just felt like she was trying too hard and not having enough fun.

Jennifer and Derek
Favorite Dance:Viennese Waltz (This was a very emotional dance the first time they did it on opening night)
Judge's Original Score: 24
Judge's Score: 30
Personal Rating: *****
Okay, well this was fantastic again. Maybe even better than the first time. This was smooth and extremely clean.

Instant Cha-Cha
Song:Pink-Raise Your Glass
(order of couples is order they danced in)

Live Note:Okay from what I understand, they didn't find out the song they were dancing to till just now (8:43pm CT) and then right away they found out the order they were going to dance. They will dance later in the show. This should be interseting.

Now it's time for the Instant Cha Cha (9:37pm CT)....

Kyle and Lacey
Judge's Score: 28
Personal Rating: *****
Something about Kyle and Lacey and Instant Dance equals incredible.

Jennifer and Derek
Judge's Score: 28
Personal Rating: *****
If this is the last time Jennifer is going to dance, what a way to go out. You can NEVER tell she has a back injury tonight.

Bristol and Mark
Judge's Score: 27
Personal Rating: *****
Damn! This was by far Bristol's best dance of the season, at least she's going to go out with a major high note.

This is going to be soooo tough! I don't know what's going to happen!

3rd Place: Bristol/Mark
This was a duh! At least they went out and saved the best for last.

2nd Place: Kyle/Lacey
Well, this was my pick, and they should have won. But what can you do? They had an amazing ride.

Winner: Jennifer/Derek
The obvious winners. Nothing else to say. They earned it and this is no big surprise.

This has been a crazy season but I enjoyed myself. I might just have to watch this show from now on!

Dancing with the Stars:The Finale Part 1 (11/22/10)

When this season started, I would have never expected that it was going to come down to these things. A little cliche? Yes, but it's the truth. I've been trying to figure out a way to do this blog, especially since there's still two dances left to be done so I think the easiest way is this way.

Kyle and Lacey
Redemtion Dance:Foxtrot
Judge's Score:27
Personal Rating:****1/2
This was soooo much better than the first time they did the foxtrot. You can tell Kyle has learned so much since then

Freestyle
Judge's Score:29
Personal Rating:*****
This was by far the most entertaining and best freestyle of the night.

Bristol and Mark
Redemtion Dance:Jive
Judge's Score:27
Personal Rating:****1/2
This was a whole different Bristol. She was clean and looked really good. Didn't see this one. It's like she came out and said, take me serious!

Freestyle
Judge's Score:25
Personal Rating:****
Despite the great song, this was really boring.

Jennifer and Derek
Redemtion Dance:Paso Doble
Judge's Score:30
Personal Rating:*****
By far the best dance of the first round. No doubt there but do you expect anything less?

Freestyle
Judge's Score:30
Personal Rating:****1/2
I'm sorry but yay she had lifts and I understand she's in pain, but in my opinion this was overdone and not as good as Kyle's.

Dancing with the Stars Finale:Beat the Odds

Monday/Tuesday night is the Dancing with the Stars grand finale. It has been a crazy season, to say the least. Now it's down to three couples, so I will pick who I think has the best odds at winning this show.

Jennifer/Derek
These two have been the most consistent of anyone on the show. They have been at the top for most of the season and all these roughest competition is completely gone. So you would think that they would be no chance of them losing. But then you realize this isn't a typical season. They should be able to pull it off, but nothing is guaranteed. 2:1

Kyle/Lacey
Talk about a duo who keeps growing and getting better every week. These two weren't supposed to be this good, but I am so glad that they are. They are my personal pick for the show, but they aren't the favorites going in. If they have two perfect performances, they could win this thing. 1:3

Bristol/Mark
Wow, this has to be the most controversial finalist on any reality show I've ever watched. The thing is that she has drastically improved since putting on a monkey costume on TV theme week. If she wasn't a Palin, no one would think twice. I don't think she has a chance to win but the fact that he made it shows that this is a truly fan operated show and anything is possible on live reality tv. 1:50


(Note: I have no idea what the odds numbers even mean, I'm just having fun so don't take those number serious for any reason.)

Rest in Peace Pat Burns

After the 2001-2002 season, the Devils were without a coach and a direction. Lou then hired legendary coach Pat Burns. Personally I was excited by this decision, I have always been a fan, and the fact that he had won three Jack Adams trophies showed alone how good of a coach he was. Well he brought the Stanley Cup back home to New Jersey on June 9, 2003. I never got to meet the guy, I guess I have to now cross it off my bucket list, but I remember the smile on his face at the Stanley Cup celebration in the Meadowlands parking lot on a hot Saturday afternoon. With that being said, Pat Burns, I thank you for that championship. Rest in Peace.

Special Edition:"Driving CDs"

How many CDs do you have in your collection that you can honestly say you can put into your CD player either to listen to or to make a long drive to and just enjoy beginning to end? Not many right? (Mix CDs don't count) This was the conversation between me and Mandy a couple of weeks which sparked my interset to see if I could find 15 albums in my personal CD collection that I could honestly pop in and listen to straight up. I ended up making a list of ten and here it is, in no particular order. Feel free to reply back with your albums either on here, fb or twitter.

Artist: Rent Cast

Album: Broadway/Movie Soundtrack

Release Year: 1996/2005

Reason: I decided to include both of these albums together (as one album) because it was just easier that way. This is my favorite broadway show, par none. The movie was fantastic as well. I have been able to listen to both of these sountracks non stop for no other reason than the music is amazing, insprining and just enjoyable.

Artist: Rock of Ages

Album: Broadway Soundtrack

Release Year: 2009

Reason: This might be the most unconventional broadway soundtrack ever made. It's a rock concert with a storyline. The soundtrack is by far of the best "best of" CD ever made but done in a way that it fits the show and is amazing to listen to and rock out to. Just a great soundtrack and albums for that reason alone. 

Artist: Zac Brown Band
Album: The Foundation
Release Year: 2008
Reason: This is just a great country album. If someone asked me to give them an album that best shows why I love country music, this would be the one. There's some pop, some rock, a little reggage, but then some hardcore country. There's a little something for anyone and it's just an easy way to get through a hour.

Artist: Brad Paisley

Album: 5th Gear

Release Year: 2007

Reason: When this album was released Brad said in an interview that it would be the ultimate driving CD. Well from the opening song to the ending instrumental, he was right. It's a fun ride with great stories and just a way to keep or put you in a good mood.

Artist: Barenaked Ladies

Album: Disc One:All Their Greatest Hits

Release Year: 2001

Reason: Okay so I know people are going to say that greatest hits albums shouldn't count, but I disagree. This CD has the best of my favorite band all in one place so I don't have to keep switching CDs around  to find the songs that I like. That's the main reason I love this album. If I need to get my BNL fix, I can just pop this in and I'm good.

Artist: Linkin Park

Album: Meteora

Release Year: 2003

Reason: When Linkin Park just came out, I'll admit I became a big fan and picked up Hybrid Theory. While that is a good CD with some great songs, this is a great rock/hip hop album. This is one of the few rock CDs that I can honestly say I can pop it on track one and I get so into it the music just flows and suddenly the album is over. It's awesome for rocking, especially if you are down in the dumps.

Artist: Stephen Lynch

Album: The Craig Machine

Release Year: 2005

Reason: Normally you would think that comedy CDs don't count for this list, but this is not a typical comedian. Lynch is a funny songwriter. While I do own three of his albums, this is by my favorite and the only one that I can listen to all the way through nonstop. It's just a very funny show that lead to a very awesome live DVD and great live show.

Artist: The O.C. Supertones
Album: Hi Fi Revival
Release Year: 2002

Reason: At one time I was really into Christian music. At that time, this album by far was my favorite one. While at times it's very religious, at it's core this album is about a journey through the crossroads of life. I always refer to songs off this album when I talk religion with people, it's very well done and when I need a reminder, I pop it in. It helps everytime.

Artist: Relient K

Album: Mmhmm

Release Year: 2004

Reason: For a couple of years I was a Relient K fan. I really liked some of their older songs but still not the best in the world. This album came out at the right time for me. I was going through alot in my life, and this album told that story perfectly from beginning to end. It's about heartbreak and fighting and redemtion and just finding yourself. I still listen to this album alot now because it's that good.

Artist: World Wrestling Entertainment
Album: WWF Forceable Entry
Release Year: 2002

Reason: As a wrestling fan, I was trying to figure out if there was one WWE album that stood out to me as my favorite, this one is by far the best. It was their first "rock" album and the only album I can blast now and still love every second of it.



Dancing with the Stars:The Semifinals Aftermath

Yesterday I had a review of the semifinals all started but got really busy and never got around to get a computer to post it up. So that being said, I'll just post my thoughts on the overall two days and then for the finale next week get back to my normal format.

First all, how did Bristol and Mark survive? How do they do? Even they were shocked last night when Brandy and Maksim got eliminated last night. The facts are they know they are on borrowed time but still keep chugging along.

#2, I am officially rooting on Kyle & Lacey to win this thing. They are by far the most entertaining duo on the show and they deserve to win.

Finally, let me say this. This has been the most unpredicatable season of this show. It is always making want to watch again next season. I have to thank ABC for that. I didn't expect to get so into this season at all, and now that I am, I am fully invested and even want to watch Monday's finale live instead of delayed the next day like I usually do.

Glee (11/16/10):Epic Substitute Teacher

After watching last night's Glee, I really want to know why I could never get a substitute teacher like Holly Holiday. I would love for a teacher to break out into Conjunction Junction, but I always ended up with "Phil". Someone in the Garfield school system alumni reading this will get that. Anyway, back to this show.

Last night, Shue got sick so that lead to one of the most unpredicatable, fast paced, fun shows of the year. Definately keeping the ball going into Sectionals in two weeks. Let's get right into the music. It was an awesome night for songs.

Holly and New Directions-Forget You
I didn't even like this song, well now I do. This was so much fun to watch and I just stop listening to the song. It's performances like this why I love this show. Plus it was a great way to bring in a new character and show her attitude on music. I also loved Rachel's not-impressed attitude during this, brillant for her character, but how hard was it for her not to break? A+

Will-Make Em' Dance
This was awesome! If you've never seen Singin' In The Rain this performance makes no sense. If you have, this was amazing. Simply a reason for Will to get a solo in the genre he's the best at and give Mike Chang a reason to just dance with him. This was entertaining and so much fun to watch. Even if it was just a sickness-endused dream sequence. A

Rachel & Holly-Nowadays
I wasn't a big fan of this performance. I understood that it was Holly's way of winning Rachel over, but it didn't work for me. Lea Michelle isn't as hot as she once was and he seemed so tiny next Gwyneth during this song. It didn't come across to me as good as it could have. C

Will, Holly & New Directions-Singing in The Rain/Umbrella
Before Glee I HATED mashups. I thought they were overdone and kinda lame. This song showed how you can take as all time classic and a new popular song and turn into something very special. I really loved this performance. I mean Mandy said it best last night when she said that they can't afford a bus but they can afford water effects, but at the same time this a musical so I will let that slide. A+
