So You Think You Can Dance: 2

SydneyK · #1 08-10-2006, 10:47 AM

Ok, dancing isn't something I have any kind of training in (as I imagine is the case with a lot of the people who watch this show). So, my perception of the dancers is just strictly what looks good to me and what looks wrong.

Donyelle seems a little awkward and... unstable. Of the final four, she is the only one I believe is out of her league.

Heidi, even if she isn't versatile, comes across as extremely sure of herself in every performance she gives. That makes all her performances look like she's doing it right. Now, whether she is or not is another story. But, to this fan, all that matters is what I can see. Sure, all her solos have been Latin, but all the dancers play to their strengths during their solos. I'm really impressed with her. I didn't like her much at the beginning of the season, but at this point, I'd almost like to see her win.

Travis seems like the more technically gifted of the two remaining men, but Benji seems to be more performance-gifted. I can see either one of them winning.

I guess what I'm saying is that as long as Donyelle doesn't win, I'll be happy. Those three are all so talented, and from a layman's POV, it's difficult to see much of a difference.

Am I right that the winner is going to be part of Celine Dion's act somehow? If that's the case, then I think Travis should win. Of the three, he's the most Celine-esque. But, I might just be making up the Celine thing... don't know why I think she's involved. ??

Kathy and Sydney, I totally agree with you on Donyelle. I definitely think that Travis or Benji will win it all. I agree with Travis being best suited for the Celine Dion show.

I hope Brian Friedman is back for the finale, because he is my favorite "third" judge. Well, him and Shane Sparks. Love them!

Same here. I love it to be Nigel, Mia, and Brian. Then again I'd rather have Mia choreograph something. Mary's so "Paula Abdul" from AI but 10x louder. She's just too nice about everything.

So excited for the finale tonight! I have to record it because I have class though.

When the show was highlighting Heidi before her solo dance tonight...what was the song playing in the background?
The lyrics were something like "yeah this is me...what I want to be..." Can someone identify this song, please?

It's one of my faves. They've used it all season when girls get sent home and it was used in the beginning of Devil Wears Prada... anyway it's Suddenly I see by KT Tunstall.

And I'm glad Benji and Travis were the final 2, that was fitting.

Spoilers for those that TiVo'd. Highlight to see...

I could have gone either way with Travis or Benji, but a larger part of me is happy that Benji won.
