Needless to say, I'm a little obsessed with the music competitions - for obvious reasons....
I especially love the UK competitions - they seem to always have these jaw dropping moments...these incredible voices that finally have their well deserved moment in the spotlight.
And cue 16-year old Janet Devlin from a small town in Northern Ireland - who sang in her bedroom as way to escape and dream.
I often sing the praises of DJs...how they can seamlessly connect layers of music in one constant flow, as they create and maintain the mood and energy of the crowd and listeners they are out to entertain.
Bottom line they have mad skillz and I wish I possessed that talent. But for the record, I did kick some ass at the whole creating a mixed tape thing....I was lightening fast at that record stop, pause technique on my Sharp Dual AM/FM Cassette Player Boombox. Word.
