Or not.
About two years ago, I wrote a post that stated that my only sources of English songs were America's Got Talent and Youtube. That is still true.
About one year ago, to enter a forum in which I would get paid for writing, I submitted an article about the best auditions during last season's America's Got Talent.
Recently, I thought that I should provide a similar article here. I confess that I am not perfect, not all-knowing and all-wise, and do not have special knowledge of the ultimate outcome. I further confess that some of my personal favourites may not go as far as I expect them to go. I confess that I am most moved by songs and by dances, so my selection is heavily weighted toward that. Hence, I am adding those who appear to have a lot of fans and who generated good reviews. Regardless, I am certain that all of the ten finalists will be found here, and the the ultimate winner is also listed here.
Or not. After all, the youtube special has not been aired, and there could be another Jackie Evancho there.
Acte II
Perhaps the new Forte?
Atlanta Professional Dance Academy
I have not seen as many exciting dance acts as I had hoped to see. This may be one of the best.

Miguel Dakota
It is not my type of music, but he does have a good singing voice, a good back-story, and very many fans.
David & Leeman

Frank the Singer
I think that this could be the year of the older acts.
Mara Justine
Bob Markworth
The Mime
OF COURSE we will see him in the finals!
Rokardy
Smoothini
Honourable Mentions
Abigail Baird I fear that future performances may become routine.
Anna Clendening Like many other people, she has a great back-story which can take her far.
Jaycob Curlee I think that his biggest competition is Miguel Dakota. I do not know who will go further.
Dom the Bom
Emil & Dariel
Julia Goodwin
John & Andrew
Kamikaze Fireflies
Mighty Atom I think that his biggest competition is Rokardy
Adrian Romoff He already has an enormous number of views at youtube, but I do not see the reason why.
Willis Clan
(Oops. I thought that I listed 10, but I now count 11. Even with that extra one, I probably have missed some worthy acts.)
