100 Creative Coin Prize!

Each of my weekly top 5 picks will also receive 20 staked Creative Coin each.
This is mostly to make up for the fact that I suck at writing.
All of the other judges write these beautiful and elaborate comments about your performances and the most I can come up with is like one sentence.
I suck lol
Also, please note that if you didn't make my top 5, it's not because I didn't like your performance.
I truly love all the performances each week and having to narrow it down to only 5 is incredibly difficult....so I make my cats do it.

Week 8 - My Top 5 Picks!

First Place:

@queenbee - Sonic Groove Live Week 8 | Almost is Never Enough (Cover)

This was a powerful performance and your voice is simply amazing.

Second Place:

@barski - Sonic Groove Live - Week 8 - Con Calma - guitar cover - Peter Barski

This does indeed sound like a complicated piece and you performed it beautifully. I am impressed as always.

Third Place:

@mfxae86 - --- Sonic Groove Live Week 8 - Cope Cover - Maroon 5 - Secret ---

Cope...How dare you.....HOW DARE YOU BE SO AWESOME??? I always love to hear you sing and play on msp-waves and being able to see you perform soothed my human condition!

Fourth Place:

@partitura - Sonic Groove Live, Week 8: Johann Sebastian Bach, Siciliano (BWV 1031)

I love the romantic stylistic approach you take in performing this Bach piece! I think Bach would love it too!

Fifth Place:

@p4ragon - Sonic Groove Live Week 8 Cover Hurt - Christina Aguilera

So much emotion in your performance. I always love to hear your beautiful voice.

Thanks so much to everyone who submitted!
