The Sing-Off

The Sing-Off finale is this Monday.  I can't wait.  I am late watcher.  I didn't hear any buzz  about this show, last year  and I think I did see one commercial and dismissed it as an American Idol wanna be.  But after seeing all this hype about the show via facebook 2 weeks after the premiere of season 2 ... I checked it out.  Didn't realize it was an acappella  singing competition.  It was amazing.  It is amazing what they can do with their voices.  I love how it's a team competition.  How they need to work together to sound good.  This is such my thing... drama singing with dancing.

I remember being really into my chorale group in school and my high school had an accapella group.  I was interested and wanted to do theatre, too.  We had a great arts program but I had pressure from my parents to excel in math and science and because I was a track below honors. (went and lived in Korea for 2 years in middle school)   I had to double up math and science courses, I gave it up.  I do regret not having the opportunity to learn drama and music.  But I can't complain...  I made a decision and job wise I became a pharmacist with a great job.  Don't like the quality of the work.  No passion there but music and drama makes a great hobby.

My top picks are the christian boys from down south, "Committed" &; "Street Corner Symphony".

From the first episode, I loved "The Backbeats" but then I started not liking them.  They did blow me away with Landslide though but there's something I don't like about them.  Maybe there's too many of them.

They are all good and when they had to eliminate  one last time.  I seriously couldn't choose.  They all 4 teams  performed so well.   And then they all made it.

So excited for Monday!
