Marcus is his name and he was dancing for his mother who died when he was 12.

He's going to Vegas!

Thanks for letting us know...I am in CA and was not going to watch tonight, but now I have my DVR set !!

I was so excited when I heard it. :)

oh my gosh, really? That is great! That song has definitely made it's mark!!!

Wow, that's cool.

I can't wait to watch this later on.

Thanks for the heads up Linda about the show!

you're welcome, all! My pleasure. I could hardly type fast enough....

:rotfl: Reminds me of last year when Danny danced to ASFY, I think we all flew to the computers and had like 4 threads at the same time.

Marcus is now my man on the show, any man who chooses Elliott's song has my vote :1word:

Does the show website post the video snippets of those who get through?

No, they don't. But I'm betting Rickey.org got it. Could be wrong, but we'll see.

I was thinking Rickey, too....in fact, I have already checked there. Not up yet, though.




haha...I remember the four threads!

Rickey's probably resting from his busy day in NYC. LOL I actually saw him in the crowd on the Today show.

true. I was just cracking up reading about his Seyesha encounter. He's funny.

I don't watch this show, so I have a question: do they show credits for the song and singer while the dance is going on? That would be helpful for those people (maybe who have been living in a cave?) that don't know who that fabulous voice belongs to.

PM, they do when they begin the actual competition, but unfortunately they don't do that in the audition rounds :(

Too bad! At least a few more people got to hear him!

From last year! Danny dancing to A Song for You

The girl judge got a little choked up. I wonder if it was from the dancing or the song, or both.

Love it!

Wednesday night somebody danced to Blake's "Break Anotha." Given how much the idols chart, I've been kind of surprised we haven't heard more, but I guess a lot of the charting Idol songs aren't particularly danceable! Luckily, Elliott is *always* danceable.

I hope he goes all the way to the finals!! I just said to my mom before we watched it "I hope someone dances to Wait for You or one one Elliott's songs, so I was flipping out! ;)

I kept watching Nigel because for sure he knew it was Elliott's song, but there was no obvious reaction showing on his face. But he did seem to let Marcus dance for quite a long time before he put his hand up to cut off the music. I know it was because Marcus was wonderful to watch, but a little part of me thinks he was enjoying the song too. :fangirly:

You know I thought the same thing.
