// Delilah - Whataya Want From Me? (Adam Lambert Cover) //
The original is a hit, no doubt, but hearing this from a female perspective lends a greater sense of vulnerability. The mark of a great cover is when a previously untapped - or even unintended - aspect of the song is discovered and brought to light. The harmony balance here is so delicate and I was thrilled to see how it unfolded so well. Delilah is a group of fantastic ensemble of solo female vocalists, and this performance showcases the top three leads perfectly.
// Afro Blue - American Boy (Estelle Cover) //
Just sick! I'm glad Shawn Stockman pointed out the scatting in the beginning, but that part of the performance was incredible. I watched this by myself and actually started to applaud at the end without thinking about it (I guess I do that now). Never have I ever clapped at the TV, but I think this warranted an ovation. "There was nuthin' wrong with that performance!"
