America's Got Talent 5
bee1233:
I think the top two for me is Prince Poppycock and Fighting Gravity. They could both have their own show in Vegas.
Jackie Evancho is too young. She has a great voice but ... she has been too prepped for her talking segments. The pressure of a Vegas show would be way too much for someone as young as her. Just my opinion.
I always hold my breathe while Jeremy is on his bike. I get excited for him when he finishes without hurting himself.
I agree with you on Christina and Ali. Christina would have done better without her sister. I had trouble listening to their song tonight.
I only have two I want in final 4. Really could care less about the others. Can you tell this is my first season watching the show?

Here are the results of America's votes and the pairings:
Prince Poppycock vs. Michael Grasso - I thought they both should make it, but only Poppycock did
Michael Grimm vs. Taylor Mathews - Gross goes to the final 4
Jeremy VanSchoonhoeven vs. Christina and Ali - neither made the final 4
Fighting Gravity vs. Studio One Young Beast Society - Fighting Gravity to the Final 4
Jackie Evancho vs. Anna and Patryk vs. - Jackie Evancho to the final 4.
apskip:
Final 4 performances are history. the big loser tonight was Prince Poppycock, whose mediocre performance singing the famous opera aria Nessun Dorma compared poorly to that of better professional singers. Piers even buzzed him, as he heard no sense of fun. I heard difficulty in reaching the penultimate note, something he never did in previous performances. I expect Prince Poppycock to finish 4th.
The Jackie Evancho juggernaut rolled along, undoubtedly to first place. She sang Gounod's Ave Maria, evoking the same angel analogies of last week. It was another flawless performance.
Michael Grimm and Fighting Gravity were fighting for second or third place. Both had outstanding performances, but neither will be able to catch Jackie. I think fighting Gravity should be rewarded for a more unique concept but concede that Michael Grimm has an outstanding voice.
Tomorrow night the Results Show will be from 8pm to 10pm.
apskip:
The Final 4 Results show went down with one major surprise but otherwise as expected. Prince Poppycock was voted by the American public into 4th place. Fighting Gravity was 3rd. The surprise for me was Michael Grimm #1 and Jackie Evancho #2. Michael must have had a huge following of young female fan base voting(they announced it was the highest total vote ever for any America's Got Talent season). The other angle is that Howie called Michael the best pure singer in the competition. I don't agree with that but others may have. He has a gravelly voice that my wife likens to Bruce Springsteen's.
So that's a wrap for AGT5.
