After playing and replaying Taylor's performance last night, I still have the same feeling.
I didn't believe it for a moment.
I was trying to picture who he might be singing it to, but just couldn't, for some reason. All style and sales pitch.
Ah, opinions. Ain't they grand. Musical tastes are so personal, even intimate sometimes, that there's no way anyone can tell another their reaction to a performance is right or wrong.
The last AI performance I emotionally connected with was Bo's a capella song last year.
I do know without a shred of doubt that Kellie Pickler is the worst singer left in the competition, followed closely by Ace. After that, it's anybody's ballgame. I'm not emotionally invested in any of them, because no one this year so far has been able to reach into that spot we all have where music resonates with my soul.
