I think it's pretty shitty to be doing covers of old songs that were remade in the 80s + 90s. You have two entire decades to pick songs from and you're going to pick songs from the 60s and 70s?... Seriously?

Am I the only person that thinks a fine frenzy didn't actually sing, and just let a Youtube cover of Stay Beautiful play the entire time? It's not that hard to tell...

That's the thing I hate about ORGs the most. It's a bloody job without getting any money. Basically, you're trading a large junk of your social life for online cred in a forum of 50 people.

Yeah, that's really stupid AFF. Like, there's soooooooooooooooo many songs from the 80s and 90s to choose from it's ridiculous. You're just being picky.
My really bad stats

This should be a good week. I hope we get some good 90s rock stuff, maybe some Wallflowers or Foo Fighters or something.

Madhack being out is kind of a load though, that's a lot of entertainment value down the drain.

im also doing heaven by bryan adams remade by dj sammy lol at me doing two remakes. thanks for the top way back when sfgp!

You'll own that song so hard, seriously :wub: it was like WRITTEN for your voice. Well and DJ Sammy's :unsure: lol <3

I don't think there's anything wrong w/ choosing songs that were originally from another decade but covered in the 80s/90s? Especially if that cover of the song is what made it famous.

I've rly been wanting there to be an oldies week..when finding out yesterday that "Stuff Like That There" was sang in the 90s by Bette Midler (lol) I was giddy but I found out about it too late to go with that as a choice.

I've been sick as fuck, and I did prerecord some songs in case something like this happened cause it's winter here, but the 90s songs I recorded all have something wrong with them, or I like what I did with them, but think people might think they are massacres, because ... does anyone freak out at the thought of Nirvana in my voice? Probably I shouldn't submit my cover of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" cause it's tooooo different right? So hell I still don't have a 90s song to submit and I'm going to have to beg my older child and his friend to keep my younger child out of the study. :rolleyes:

Idk as far as I'm concerned, as long as you do whatever version was from that time period, I don't see it being a huge deal.

I think with "Killing Me Softly" though, the remake is just as well known as the original if not more well known, and it always gets played when my local radio station does all 90s weekend... I think it's acceptable.

Idk I see what you're saying, I think a lot of the decisions this season have been obscure when obvious would've been better but that's just me :hee

There's a few "obvious" nineties choices I'd like to do except I think people will think they don't suit my voice so maybe I shouldn't do them...so...still unsure on my nineties choice due to being sick as fuck through most of the time allocated. :wacko:

It's a pity CO is so set against anyone doing My Heart Will Go On because I've found it does suit my voice. I try to pick something no one is going to hate with that passion though.

I would not have told PT to do retroactive judging if I had known I would be skipped for already being out.

Delayed :( Thanks to all my supporters [MDC, Lines, whoever else said something nice]. I'd have loved to go a bit longer but it wasn't in the cards.

Also is it wrong that I hope AFF is "eliminated" this week? If only because the only reason the judge's save wasnt used on me by CO's own admission is fear that AFF might be eliminated at five. I say this because I want the save to be used on her, its being used this round anyway. It would just make me feel shitty if anyone else got saved. :lbf :wub:

Sounds like the judges are worrying about something that's not going to happen. Really don't think AFF will be at risk of elimination next round. Killing Me Softly is right for her voice, which is why she didn't want to find something else from the 90s.

I still haven't chosen my final songs, I have like five different songs I have done and I can't choose lol.

I've done that a few times, then asked Bop to choose out of the songs, then not gone with her choice, then regretted not going with her choice. Bop's choices all probably were better.

Yeah the only way I will survive is if I do the best performance ever on these songs and I am not optimistic about my chances.

I don't think anything is obvious. You've had strong fans all the way along. I knew when I was considering doing "Hopelessly Devoted to You" it's a song people either love or hate. Maybe a lot of people here just hate that song. lol I think Alexi or maybe it was someone else said they hate the song.
