If you’ve
not been watching the TV, you might have not known that the X-Factor (USA) has
just wrapped up for the year, and the winner crowned is a very unique duo –Alex
and Sierra. To tell you the truth, I have been their
number one fan since their first audition. So, I have dug around Youtube.com to
put together their 5 best moments during the competition.
#1. “Toxic”
The very
first time we get to see this couple was during the audition. Humble, down- to-
earth, and very witty. They swept the audience feet in less than a minute.
Their rendition of toxic was definitely fresh and captivating.
#2. Trouble
Who would
have thought Taylor Swift’s “Trouble” could be made into something jazzy that
is fully amped with attitude.
#3. “Say My
Name”
I’m a huge fan of Destiny’s Child. In fact,
after they have disbanded, I can’t think of any other girl group who can bring
such sass and attitude coupled with good materials for songs in the music
industry. And no other groups have ever done justice to their songs in any
talent competitions. This was before I saw Alex and Sierra dished out their
very own version of Say My Name.
#4. Little
Talks
The original
song was fast and puts in the wittiness between the lines. The music video
accompanying the original song was great. BUT when Alex and Sierra made the
song their own, by taking it one notch slower, emotions and meanings were
embedded into the song. And I was totally blown away!
#5. “Say
Something”
The first
time I heard this song, it was sung by Christina Aguilera and A Great Big
World. And i was going like “WOW”. But when Alex and Sierra sang it, we went
beyond “WOW”; we were speechless!
And now that
they’ve won the recording contract with Sony; I shall await their debut album with feverish anticipation. What about you guys?
