I guess the turnoff I had to Fantasia is that she just seem really hardened. To be fair, I should realize she probably has good reason to be.
I thought her performance was really nice. It had a feeling of a classic torch singer, yet she modernized it a bit. It was cool.
I know George isn't the greatest singer ever, but I remember Simon saying how he didn't have a chance to be the winner. He wasn't enough of a front man. I think George has stepped up and had some nice performances. But, I love to see the underdog win.
