I thought Kat's first song was just alright. Not the "hit-it-out-of-the-park" finale performance she should/could have given. Taylor's 1st song - liked it, fun, energizing, and the crowd enjoys it. Like Simon, I give the first song to Taylor.
Song 2 - Katharine just nails this song everytime. A beautiful performance yet again. Will it hurt her that she did it two weeks in a row? Did she have any other powerful performances in the competition where she could have picked 1 or 2 better songs? Probably not, since she owns 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow' . Taylor doing 'Levon' - was just alright... There are so many songs that he can do well... should he have picked something different?
This round: Kat
3rd song/the single:
Kat's song was boring
She didn't even try to put any effort into making it her own. Taylor's song was boring as well, but at least he "Taylorized" it and made it is own, the best he could. Think Taylor pulled it out here. I guess we'll wait and see if Simon & I are right
Daughter & I are fighting over the phone. Luckily, I can text message, she cannot. I also have another landline to use, and will be up later
And I will not be voting 500 times
though I did vote an awful lot for Bo last year
Now if it were Elliott in the final, my fingers wouldn't be typing here til 1:00am. I still think he was the best and earned/deserved to be in the finale. It was bittersweet seeing him in the Idol audience
