Live to Dance Semifinals

Tonights episode was the best one yet. The series has been so short, hard to believe they will be announcing a winner next week. I welcome any dance show, so overall it has been a welcome surprise. I wonder when MTV will start showing "America's Best Dance Crew" again, I sure hope they do.

Onto tonight's show:

Kendall Glover was America's vote from last week. Woo-hoo!

First to dance was TWITCH..with another great dance and my vote for the win. I didn't vote so if they lose I will feel super guilty. I love their quirky moves, I love that there is one dude with a bunch of girls. They were so powerful, so sharp, so awesome!!!

Next was White Tree Fine Art. They are good, but I guess I am a bit un-impressed. Their little love story was sweet. They are talented, but not up to par in my opinion. Travis said that they made good "lines" and that is what I always watch in dance-but it wasn't enough this time for me.

Then it was The Vibe-38 strong. They were great-but I have to say this was my least favorite performance. It was a bit busy for me, and I would have enjoyed (as the judges said-some peaks and valleys).

And then it was Kendall's turn. I loved her musicality, she is UBER-talented. She was a bit chaotic too...like she had to pack all of her tricks in, and some subtle slow, intentional calmness would have made it perfect. Have I mentioned that she dances a lot like Lauren from So You Think You Can Dance? They are both from Phoenix so I wonder if they had the same teacher.

5th to dance was Dance Town Chaos. The judges loved them, gave them a standing ovation-I am not sure if I agree. They were good and I liked the concept of the dance BUT they were not very synchronized. There was one dancer that was spotlighted and it would have been okay for a few seconds but it was almost distracting-I wish that they would have rotated the spotlight. They were good and I appreciate their uniqueness, however.

Finally it was D'Angelo and Amanda. They were AWESOME this time, I am amazed of their talent and of how young they are! They were better tonight than I have ever seen. Her leaps and legs were just unbelievable. They have such cute little chemistry-they are even funny during their interviews.

I believe that voting will be super tight, I can't wait to see who wins. My friend Stephanie from work, may not agree with me (she has a niece who is on The Vibe)...but my ranking would be: Twitch, D'Angelo and Amanda, Kendall Glover, The Vibe, Dance Town Chaos, and then White Tree Fine Art. We will see if I get it right.
