Last year the hubs and I started watching the extremely short (it was only a few weeks long) TV show The Sing-Off on NBC because some friends of mine went to Lee University and knew a guy from the Voice of Lee, one of the groups singing on the show. I'm a huge music fan, and have been singing my entire life. Church, plays, school events, weddings, karaoke - you name it, I'll sing it.
Anyhoo, on the first night, all of these a capella groups sang for an hour, and it was musical heaven to my ears. I loved it! We watched every single episode, and although I loved all of the groups, hubs and I ended up rooting for NOTA because of their personal situations. The young Beelzebubs, who were delightfully entertaining - and adorable - were my second choice, but they were all young, charming college-age guys who had a plethora of options after the show.
Well, all of that is beside the point. The show is starting up again next week, December 6th, and I CANNOT WAIT! I'm so excited to see the new groups that will be on and what songs they will cover. Now (for at least a few weeks, anyway) I'll have Glee AND The Sing-Off! Yay!
Here's a clip of one of the groups from last year, the SoCals (USC's glee club), singing a Journey medley. I picked them and this video because you can't go wrong with a Journey medley. Ever.
Oh. My. Gosh.
ReplyDeleteI had a mini-heart attack when I saw your post title because I thought I MISSED IT!
Ack! I'm so excited! This is sooooooooo much better than Glee! (yeah, I said it!)
I too loved the Sing Off last year and am so happy it's coming back!! The previews I have been seeing for recently look so good! Can't wait to hear all the groups!! I also loved Nota from last season too. Their rendition of "Down" was so great!!
ReplyDeleteI have to watch this next week! Love it!
ReplyDeleteGrr I can't watch the video at work, but I do love that show. I used to youtube the videos all the time and me and my sister would sit and watch them.
ReplyDeleteI never even heard about this show last year. I probably would have enjoyed it. I think I might give this season a shot. (Of course, I'll probably have to watch it a day or two late every week on the internet...)
ReplyDeleteI thought that show was fun! I love hearing their interpretations of songs and I LLLOOOOOOVEEEE seeing Ben Folds as a judge!
