TV meme: Day six
Day 06 - Favorite episode of your favorite TV show
Considering the show I picked as my favorite (American Idol) doesn't really have episodes in the same sense that sitcoms or hour long dramas do, I decided to choose my favorite performance instead. Unfortunately, considering I've watched Idol for the last seven years, and each year has over a hundred performances each, it's a pretty daunting task to go back through all seven of those seasons. So instead, I decided that I'd stick with the current one.
I also couldn't choose just one
Anyone who knows I watch Idol, knows I'm a huge Crystal fan. I've loved her since the beginning (with the exception of a couple of songs that just weren't quite up to her usual standards), and I've been rooting for her to win for just as long. Despite that, neither of these two performances are hers.
I'm shocked too.
First pick:
Can I just say, WOW! I love Lee, nearly as much as I love Crystal, and I love this song. When I heard this is what Simon picked for Lee to sing however, I was a little nervous. It's been done a lot and no matter who sings it, no matter how good they do with it, I always go back to my all time favorite version by Jeff Buckley. No one has ever been able to come even close to comparing.
But Lee...Lee completely blew me away tonight. Completely blew me away.
And he may have even taken Crystal's spot for who I want to win this year.
Wow!
Second pick (because I honestly can't choose between the two):
Casey is one of my favorites this year. He's not up there with Lee and Crystal, but when he nails something, he really nails it. This is one of those times. Frankly, I think if Casey had stuck with the more emotional songs throughout this season, he'd probably be one of my top picks for winning.
Previous days:
Day 01 - A show that should never have been canceled: Stargate SG1 (though I'm definitely starting to rethink that choice and am leaning more towards Firefly now)
Day 02 - A show that you wish more people were watching: Smallville
Day 03 - Your favourite new show (aired this TV season): Nothing
Day 04 - Your favorite show ever: American Idol
Day 05 - Day 05 - A show you hate: Stargate Universe
