so i have somewhere to sink into

odd mix, but it's what i like.

First Aid Kit's cover of a Fleet Foxes song

Four Non Blondes - What's Up

Hawai`i Aloha (Israel Kamakawiwo`ole)

from "Wicked" -- For Good (rehearsal and interviews)
--despite this being not a song right through, i love the dialogue from the creators/artists, mixed with the song itself

UC-Berkeley Men's Octet 2003 - Bohemian Rhapsody
(i like others by this particular octet grouping, including Not Pretty Enough, the original of which is by Kasey Chambers -- an absolutely gorgeous song & arrangement)

Apologize (One Republic w/o Timbaland)

...and with the remix of Timbaland

Peter Moon Band - Far Too Wide for Me (from Rhapsody - scroll down & select)

bianca ryan (my favorite of her performances was also her first)
there's just something about first performances that i like ~
Craig Womersley's
Bessie Cursons
Paul Potts' audition (fantastic!)
and Jack Reeve -- definitely liked his all-heart audition rather than the "showy" production that was later set for him.
Dominic Smith - he really shines in this audition done acapella
George Sampson - 2007
George Sampson returned the following year (this is his audition), & won the competition
...and his final competition performance ~ awesome!

2 chinese boys lipsync'ing to the backstreet boys' "I want it that way"




...more to be added regularly
