They were both awesome, but this one really got me.

When he did "The Tracks of My Tears" he sounded ike a Motown artist while looking like a young Elvis Presley.

I really liked both, but Mad World just sounded like an American Idol version of the song. It was good, but nothing too too special, in my opinion.
And yeah, jarik, he did look like a young Elvis, didn't he?

Yep I agree. There was something very special about this performance. Maybe it's because he stepped out of his norm and tried something simple and beautiful. And I think it worked for him. He gained a lot of fans when he sang this song this night. I know that night I became a bigger fan. The song was perfectly done. And it gave me chills which is always a plus!

They were both amazing....but this one was just incredible! I don't know if it was b/c Smokey was sitting 20 ft from him, but it just got me swooning over him that much more.....

Both were great but I liked Tracks of My Tears better. There was just something magical when he sang that!

Definitely Karen! I feel the same way....there WAS a sort of magic to that song.

This song has been stuck in my head for a week now because of it!!!!

Oh they were both fantastic! But this one was just a whole other kind of WOW.

Yep simply amazing...
