CASEY JOHNSON - WEEK 2 STARFACTORY PERFORMANCEQuote:"Last week went better than I thought it would! I mean a girl was on pins and needles thinkin I wasn't gonna get picked but thank God I did! I think the competition will be harder than I thought and I thought it was gonna be a tough one but I think all I have to do is open my mouth and just sang! That's all I been doin in my life, ever since I was a little girl. My mama used to put me in the church and hand me the microphone and say 'Sang Casey!' and I did it and people liked it so I kept doing it. I even met my mentor last week and he was just as nice and sweet as a basket of peaches with sugar on top! He was so handsome too, thought I might pass out and my teammates? They were so nice and all of them were so funny, made me laugh so hard!
Okay, so we sat down and tried to pick a song but we figured it would be hard since I don't know nothin about Heavy, Dark, Crazy Metal, whatever it's called, I thought we was in trouble! But since it said we could do songs that he produced, I think sweet baby Jesus was lookin out for me on that one, he sure did. We went through all the songs he produced and it seemed like we was there for hours and hours and hours but we finally found one! It was by Misery Loves Company, I love that name, and it's a Rock song and I do love me some Rock songs. I surely hope I impress this week, I wanna be set apart from everyone else y'know? I mean I want people to go through everyone and be like 'I like that Casey Johnson, she shol' can sing!' I wanna make everyone back in Georgia proud of me and I wanna go somewhere with my music. Well that's all I got to say about that, so let me go. Ya'll know I can talk and talk for days now." - Casey Johnson
[Misery Loves Company - Forget Everything (Orinally F*** Everything) Edited Version]The camera pans around to the dark filtered stage where the blonde haired country girl, Casey Johnson is standing with just a microphone and the weight of expectation as the live studio audience become completely silent while they await in anticipation for her performance. She looks across at the five famous mentors including her own mentor Scott R.H, she flashes a quick smile in their direction before she gets her cue from the backing band as they lead the young singer into the song with the soft melodical guitar introduction as well as the repetitive drum beat which provides the energy to the song and instantly forces the audience into life, Casey smiles widely as the introduction finally reaches the opening lines to the song and she stands still at the center of the stage and tightly places both hands onto the microphone, she closes her eyes for a few moments in order to compose herself and she opens them up again and stares out to the audience in front of her, she opens her mouth and begins singing the song initially with a soft and emotional vocal ”Sometimes I wondered if to him I was invisible
He was always the type that seemed so invincible
Truth be told I could of done more to make it last
I wish I could look back at it all and think we had a blast
He liked to throw me around,
Woulda got away with it if I didn’t make sound
Now he will hear this song,
And hopefully realize that he was so damn wrong
Forget the world, forget my life, forget everything to do with you
I chose to love him, he split my life in half
Forget him, forget his smile, forget his kiss, and forget his laugh!
Woah!” As the song progresses, she confidently walks across the stage with the microphone in her hands, using the crowd reaction to its fullest as she reaches out to the audience members closest to the stage, they scream as she sings to them with a more assertive and confident vocal and the closeness between singer and audience is clear as those in the front row can be heard singing along to the country girl and cheering loudly as she makes them a part of the performance, her confidence with the song and it’s melody is clear as she makes her way back across to the center of the stage in perfect time to sing the next lines of the song on perfect note, she places the microphone back into the stand and holds onto the side of it again as she hits a high note halfway through the chorus, with confidence and aggression providing the rocky edge that the song asks for with its lyrics and setting up the final verses of the song perfectly; “Did I really come across as a desperate girl?
I was young back then, just trying to loose my duck
At the time my life was really running downhill
It seemed like my band mates hated me for having skill
They knew I was better than they could be
All I needed was an audience and they could see
He liked to throw me around,
Woulda got away with it if I didn’t make sound
Now he will hear this song,
And hopefully realize that he was so damn wrong
Forget the world, forget my life, forget everything to do with you
I chose to love him, he split my life in half
Forget him, forget his smile, forget his kiss, and forget his laugh!
Woah!
(Instrumental as Casey adds in her own vocalizing. Casey decides to show off her vocal range in this part, giving off strong vocals and really playing around with the song.)
Oooooooh, yeaaaah
Woooooaaaaah-oh!
Forget him, forget his smile, forget his kiss, and forget his laugh!
Forget him, forget his smile, forget his kiss, and forget his laugh!
Forget it all”As the song finishes, Casey is stood center stage and with the final chord of the guitar being struck, Casey steps back from the microphone to take in the audiences reaction to the performance, glancing across at the five judges she feels confident that she put on the best performance that she could have today and feels confident enough in her own performance which is clear as a big smile appears across her face as the song ends and the cheering of the audience is left ringing in the ears of everybody in the room. She then waves to the crowd yelling out, "Thank ya'll, thank ya'll very much!"
