Imo, if you can't do EBYT right, you shouldn't be doing it at all. ;P The judges actually called them on their lack of grit on that song (cue me pumping my fist in the air and applauding the judges) - it was supposed to be rock, and it wasn't, not at all, so they kind of did bomb a bit anyway.
Sing Off was an awesome show. Made me realise how good a reality contest can be when you have kind-but-constructive-and-competent judges, and everybody loves what they're doing. If you liked Creep you should totally look up their Fix You as well. And, well, all the other songs they did (other than the Beatles medley, because that kind of bombed). They were my absolute faves, followed by the Backbeats (who was a very new group and it showed a bit sometimes, but they gave some truly awesome performances - I recommend "If I Were A Boy", "Landslide" and "Love Shack" - and I have a major crush on their vocal percussionist, ahem) and then Committed came in third for me, purely because they lacked a bit of, well, grit.
