I really have to say, this show really is seriously satisfying because you just dive into the music. The judges are probably the best I've seen in any reality talent competition with precise and detailed criticisms without being harsh. And although ditsy Nicole Scherzinger brings Paula Abdul to mind, she seems more down to earth and less icky. I do hope the American Idol people are taking notes here. By focusing on the music, the show has much more legitimacy.
Now, as for the contestant, I really love me some Sweet Corner Symphony. No, they didn't crush everyone this week but I'm still pulling for them to win this season. I'm just sad that On The Rocks had to leave this early and it seemed like a total cop out to me that the judges didn't eliminate a second group. They should've sent Jerry Lawson and Boredoms home. I mean, the group as shown ZERO versatility on the show. I bet they are too intimidated to cut Jerry Lawson's crew so they'll let America decide instead. Haha.
As always, I will rank the groups as they sing both Superstar Medley and Judges' Choice . And yes, I will still be posting download links (mp3) of their performances. Enjoy!
