And Louis Armstrong for the other. (I had to do this quickly since I don't know any jazz!) Yikes!

And it looks like I'll be singing them both tonight. We go on vacation tomorrow and I'll be gone till the 16th. So for once, I'll be one of your first entries, instead of always being last. ;)

OK I NEED TO CLARIFY SOMETHING...
JUST BECAUSE AN ARTIST IS ON THIS LIST DOES NOT MEAN THEY DEFINATLY HAVE SONGS ON SNAP FROM BEFORE 1969.....
I TOOK THE NAMES FROM THE JAZZ SECTION OF SNAP, LOOKED THEM UP WIKIPEDIA AND GOT THE YEARS THEY WERE ACTIVE....EXAMPLE,
DELLA REESE, Years active 1957-Present
HOWEVER IT SEEMS SNAP DOES NOT HAVE ANY OF HER EARLY SONGS ON HERE....
SO PLEASE BE SURE TO CHECK BEFORE YOU CLAIM OK:)

I know I'm out of the contest & had an awesome time in it! BEWARE, someone is downrating again. I know some are very sensitive to it, I try to ignore it & consider it just plain meaness or even jealousy. Plus it helps to keep in mind that 5* ratings don't really count in the contests! ;)
HUGS & GL to all the semi-finalists.......LOTS of talent in this terriffic contest!

Good evening everyone. I'd like to congratulate all the finalists.... you all did an awesome job. I can't wait to hear your recordings.
Thanks go out to Peterose and Toots for hosting such a wonderful contest. This was the first contest that I have ever entered (even if it was at the coaxing of a friend) and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. LOL I really didn't expect to make it even past the auditions.
Best of luck to everyone.

Hello, I would like to thank all the contestants from the last round who lost out for the semi-finals, what a lovely bunch of people they are and the beautiful vocals they performed throughout the competition. I really enjoyed getting to hear the different voices during the time this competition has run and even though I may not have always had the time to personally comment on each performance, I really feel each and every one deserves a special mention. Thank you for making this such a fun and joyful competition and of course Thank you to our wonderful hosts for putting it all together :-)

Ok, I´m a little late, but got back from vacation on Monday and wanted to catch up with my listenings first.
I just wanted to thank you for the great and well organized contest. This was really a lot of fun.
Also I´m happy, I spent some time with such awesome singers. An experience for life!
And eventually I came way farther than I expected at the beginning!
Thanks for all!
Congratulations to all the semi-finalists and good luck to you!
( Both of my favourites from the start are still in, so I´ll keep my fingers crossed especially for you! :-) )
