^^ I don't think you can use the "one-hit wonder" as your song, according to the moderator. I believe he wrote that we have to choose a "non-hit" by the artist who had the "one-hit wonder" as defined above by Billboard, right ???

Well if for some reason I survive, I think I have my song. Looks like I'm going back to the 90s though.

I meant a song other than one that was on the list... But by an artist on the list.

I'm a judge, I'm sorry. At least I was honest about how I felt.

Sorry for taking so long to judge - I had a paper due yesterday - my first paper in a few years for grad school, so I was focused on that.
Anyhow, I think this was a good set!
JohnM1120 - This is an improvement from your last outing, but I think you are reaching for notes in a song that isn't very dynamic to begin with. I think I would have picked a song more suited to your range, though 1981 is not an easy year. I just looked at the songs - would you have been up for Physical? Haha.
carrieidol1 - This is so much better than last week's! I would have liked to hear you do more of the song rather than the slow intro, but you had a nice vibrato and held your notes in the same pitch. It was a little nasal at the beginning, but that disappeared about 20 seconds or so in.
IamJuanK - I don't think this song is suited for you, Juan. I would have gone with a more gutteral singer like Joe Cocker's "You Are So Beautiful". This song had dropped notes, and you stayed in the low tones when this song doesn't really call for it.
picklerclarkson - So, true confession time. I stan for Bonnie Raitt HARD, like charismatic Pitbull hard, so it's difficult for me to judge this fairly. I think you did this fine, though there were some scattered pitch problems, and it was a bit monotone in parts. The ending was strong.
surfy - I think you were the most improved. I like that you put your own flourishes in there. I don't think it;s fair to judge on the video itself, but you (and carrieidol1) need to watch closing your eyes when you sing because it looks like you are lost in your world then. Nice runs; be careful on your breathc ontrol.
neally - I can't find fault with anything. This was lovely. :)

^ That's not going to happen... at least not from me. I don't have time during the week to record, and this week I'd like to put a little more time into it... So I was hoping we'd have the weekend to work on it. Seeing as how the results were just posted tonight, I don't think that's too much to ask.
Never mind haha.

Thanks for the comments. It was a tough year to choose songs from, and wasn't happy about the result, but well at least it was fun :) I'll keep voting anyway Cheers!!!

I was gonna record earlier this evening when I got called into work at the last second. I got home at 3am and recorded. And I'm leaving town tomorrow morning so this was my only shot to record. I apologize in advance for my 3am performance.
