Crystal Bowersox and the Midnight Train to Georgia video
Crystal Bowersox’s “Midnight Train to Georgia” that played on American Idol last night had a few surprises for the judges and fans. However, certain elements of the Crystal Bowersox “Midnight Train to Georgia” rendition were quite predictable: She nailed it, the judges loved it, and the next day everyone was googling the video like crazy.
Crystal Bowersox sings ‘Midnight Train to Georgia’
From the moment Ryan Seacrest announced on “American Idol” that Crystal Bowersox chose “Midnight Train to Georgia” to sing for Soul and R&B week, I knew it was the perfect song for her. Before that, Ryan Seacrest has announced a first surprise that Crystal Bowersox had for the audience: she was wearing stiletto hills.
The next surprise was revealed during Crystal Bowersox’s coaching session with Usher. Rather than playing the guitar like normal, she would be playing the piano during “Midnight Train to Georgia”. Don’t worry, fans, she won’t need any credit repair for changing up her routine.
The many instruments of Crystal Bowersox
When she sat down in front of Usher to play “Midnight Train to Georgia,” Crystal Bowersox admitted that she hadn’t played the piano for a few years. Although Usher told her she needed to work on her piano, he also told her she’d do well. She should probably just start spending cash now; her career in music is booming already.
Once again, she did indeed do great. Randy, Ellen and Kara raved about everything - mostly the piano and the high heels. Simon told her it was obvious that she was over thinking it while trying to play the piano and that she shouldn’t let the competition change her. As you might guess, he didn’t like the heels and questioned whether Bowersox was getting out of her character. She made it clear to him that she’d never do anything uncomfortable to her.
