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.

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.

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
Status after First Song:Eliminated

Commited
Medley:Usher
Thoughts:Can I have a full verison of the middle of this medley so I can put it on a sex CD? Damn! This was great!
Rating:10
Status after First Song:Safe
Judge's Choice:Al Green-Let's Stay Together
Thoughts:Just when you think you see it all with these guys, they show that they are indeed a GROUP. Everyone got to sing a lead and impressed so well. Wow. Simply wow.
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
Status after First Song:Safe
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.
