QueenCami Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 (edited) Many of the performances listed in the "favorite performances" threads are over-the-top or super powerful performances, and for good reason! However, there are tons of amazing performances that are more subtle or softer but just as moving (not sure if understated is quite the right word). What are some of your favorites? Here are a few I can think of for me off the top of my head: Karli Webster vs. Addison Agen - Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Terrence Cunningam vs. Livia Faith - Stars Claire DeJean - Hurt Somebody Edited April 4, 2021 by QueenCami 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Misirlou Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Gotta second Jacob Miller's blind. Dylan delivered with conviction, and great guitar playing to boost it. I loved Terrence's and Mendeleyev's auditions as well. Both James Wolpert's and Addison Agen's versions of A Case of You were great too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angeles Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Addison Agen - "Jolene" Katrina Cain - "Rhiannon" Mercedes Ferreira-Dias - "She Used to Be Mine" Damali - "Sober" Zan Fiskum - "Blowin' in the Wind" Cami Clune - "Skinny Love" Madeline Consoer - "Die From A Broken Heart" DeSz - "Landslide" (Unpopular, but I loved seeing a more emotional & vulnerable performance from DeSz). I tend to prefer understated performances over BIG performances, so I'm sure there are more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
