    The look on Simon's face was priceless.

    It was insane how quickly the crowd and judge's mood changed the second she began singing.

    It doesn't matter if this woman wins or not, she's got a new career.

    The women in my dressing room saw this on line during the matinee today and were unanimous in their love of the performance. So she's won over the professionals too. :D

    I wonder how quickly the recording company execs are going to line up to get her a contract. Considering how quickly she won everyone over, I wouldn't be surprised if they tripped over themselves trying to do so.

    I'm not any sort of musicals person, so I had to look up the lyrics of the song she chose. Its appropriateness to everything she had wanted before that night ... truly amazing.

    Wonderful stuff. That was great.

    Beautiful, incredibly sad song, too.

    The song from Les Mis was great, but this was the one that stirred the hair on the back of my neck.
