BuddyTV have got their latest list Oh so right. Not only is their number one an absolute given but number two is also an inspired choice. They have put together “Five Great Moments in TV Karaoke” and of course, as it must, Lorelai’s performance on Gilmore Girls is leading the list.
"I Will Always Love You," Gilmore Girls
"One Way or Another," Veronica Mars
"Bust a Move," One Tree Hill
"Don’t Stop Believin’," Family Guy
"Afternoon Delight," Arrested Development
They comment that it is a “heartbreaking performance” by Lauren Graham that should have been Emmy-worthy.
“Tell me it isn’t some of the best acting you’ve ever seen… It’s great vocally and one-of-a-kind emotionally, making it not only TV’s greatest karaoke moments, but one of the best scenes on television in the past 20 years.” How's that for a rap?!
Though Lorelai begins by singing the song for Rory, when Luke comes in… everything changes, and the lyrics take on a whole new meaning as she tries to get through finishing her song. And to relive the moment - here it is....
you know that i love every second of Gilmore Girls, well actually there a few Kirk moments I could have lived without, but this is one of my very favourite scenes ever. cry, oh yes indeed i did!!!
ReplyDeletehonourable mentions to ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT, one of the funniest tv shows ever made!!!!
Overall the top 5 was great wasn't it. 4 out of 5 were rippers. We really need to start GG again. Or at least redo season 7 - thoughts?
