12. Chaka Khan - I'm Every Woman

An amazing lip sync by Trinity and April. Both did great, but Trinity really shone here. April made the mistake of lip syncing to the background singers parts too, which allowed for moments where she kind of looked like Trinity's background singer (the same thing happened with Tatianna in her lip sync against Jujubee). Trinity was serving beauty, elegance, and emotion.

A classic song by an often underrated vocalist and performer. Chaka really has some amazing material.

You should haven't counted Devon or -Lewymocha-'s ballots in my opinion. They've been in the Shady Queens section far too often.

Yes, love both girls but Trinity owned it. The fan, the lifting of the dress,, the way she sat down on the step and made April her background singer. Flawless.

And chaka's version is better than Whitney's.

Expectation, not an achievement.

Eh. Devon's was the only one I considered not counting, but they he varied his low scores enough and didn't really affect the winner or top 10 in any significant way. And Lewy just did the song sorter and evenly distributed their scores. I guess that still ended up giving them more low scores than the average sender.

Hm, OK, that's fair.

But still, Devon's scores seem a bit... Sabotage-y.

An incredibly underrated lip sync imo. Coco really killed it and Jade wasn't even doing that bad. But Coco truly matched the energy of the song and did so without crazy acrobats which is really impressive considering the song. Also that shot of the entire judging panel dancing and getting their life to this song is one of my favorite lip sync moments.

Another genuine 80s classic. I grew up on The Pointer Sisters because my mom loved them after seeing them open for Lionel Richie. They had a way of just really capturing the feeling of joy in a song. This is a flawless example of that as is one of my other favorite's of theirs "Goldmine". I don't know how a person can listen to this without feeling happy.

Ru, Donna or Natalie (RIP) needs to win.

[conatus]

I would kind of be fine with anything except Supermodel, and, to a lesser extent, This Will Be and Sissy That Walk winning.

To me they just seemed like Reinvention's scores for the Madonna rate. He knew what he really liked and didn't really fuq with the rest. It might be messy taste, but it didn't scream sabotage.

Oh and don't forget Petals 0 is within the top 10.

Y'all realistically should be able to figure it out based on those gifs I attached to your names in the OP. I assume people know what they mean by now.

I had no idea that's what they meant. So it went to MacArthur Park?

[jqnetto]

WOW! Queen of pop Paula Abdul is really SLAYING with multiple songs in the top 10.
