Week Two (Movie Songs)

[Danny Gokey]

Break- Jonathan Rhys Meyers from the movie August Rush.

I chose this sing because it has a little bit of everything. It has powerful vocals mixed with soft verses to help show the emotion in its meaningful lyrics. I love the mix of classical with rock in the song, especially the version in the movie, so I have changed the arrangement to have more violin mixed in. (a side note of what I'm talking about, at 2:32 in the video where you see her playing, in the movie the violin is actually in the song) I really think this song fits me well.


I break, I borrow, I live, I loose
I break, I'm hollowed, I'm dead, confused
I'll find you

What is love and what's it for
I'm stuck outside an open door
And no one's come to get me yet
I never got a second bet
I'm welcomed to your fantasy
If only she was make-believe
Oh what is love and what's it for?
Oh take me back and do me more
Ooh take me back and do me more

I break, I borrow, I live, I loose
I break, I'm hollowed, I'm dead, Confused
I'll find you

Once you're here you're never gone
Oh, once you're here you're never gone
I fall from in out the cold
A piece of me that I can't hold
I love you as I loose you more
I break outside this open door
Catch me as I wash away
Oh, catch me as I wash away
Ooh, catch me as I wash away

I break, I borrow, I live, I loose,
I break, I'm hollowed, I'm dead, confused

I break, I'm hollowed, I'm dead, confused
I'll find you

Well Danny, Danny, Danny




I have to say that was average, this song didn't wow me that much, I mean August Rush the movie (as well as the music) was great, but i think you pushed yourself a bit too short with going on soft lyrics for this. This wasn't a bad choice, but we need some energy from you and see that spark that everyone likes. It was just an alright job.

Danny! I hate the song, but I love the way you sang it. Good Job, man!

[Kara DioGuardi]

I felt like I was at some patriotic ballett or something.
The song was completly boring and annoying in my taste. BUT













You ROCKED IT!

[Paula Abdul]

I'm not sure what to make of your performance this week. It really was a crap song .. but it worked for your voice.

I'm at a loss for words ... seriously.
