Yeah, we actually recorded the show and then skipped over all that stuff for the most part. (I watched the first parts by myself first, so I saw it all, but got a bit smarter when watching again with lyraeinne.) Last night, we watched "live," but what I actually did was pause it for ten minutes or so, watch the show and skip over commercials and BS, then pause it again. They could easily have streamlined this show and there was no need at all to repeat all that stuff about the choirs tonight.
But still...I enjoyed the performances for the most part, except We Are the Champions which was horrible and also that "I got into a car accident. Please, Jesus, help me because I am such a dumbass..." song. I think that song is the worst song I have ever heard in my life...just... No words for how horrible that song was except for the most horrible rendition of We Are the Champions which almost made my ears bleed.
And I agree about Nick singing with his choir. I really didn't know that song, but now I'm actually tempted to buy his CD or at least look him up on iTunes. hehe I also agree that his choir seemed more like how I thought a choir should sound--more together or something. I think that's what bugged me so much about so many of the other choirs--the "lead singer/backup singers" thing.
Nick's face when they won was awesome. I really got the impression that he wanted to win for his choir as much as anything. I still can't believe he won. I voted online, but I kept trying to call until about 3 a.m. and I got a busy signal every time--even when I hit "redial" over and over and over. I never did get through.
I didn't vote at all the first two nights because I watched it too late and voting was already over by then.
