Performance: Spencer Quill & Rachel Berry
For the second performance of the night, a montage was shown of the first meeting, song choosing, and rehearsals was shown between Spencer Quill and Rachel Berry, set to a melody of songs they have performed on the show thus far. It ended with dress rehearsal, earlier the day of performance with the girls exchanging a firm nod.
Spencer walked out onto the stage first, a pleated red skirt and a black off the shoulder top. She grinned as she brought up her microphone as the music started. "Now... for something a little different..."
"I don't know why I like it I just do" Spencer started off the song with spoken lines.
"I've been hearing your heartbeat inside of me I keep your photograph beside my bed Livin' in a world of fantasies I can't get you out of my head" Spencer looked over to Rachel, not only surprised that she had been allowed to take the lead in the song but to let the other girl know that it was her turn.
Rachel came out towards the end of Spencer's part and was using what the judges told her. As she walked out wearing the opposite of Spencer a black pleated skirt and a red off the shoulder top to coordinate with their duet. Interacting with the audience, she began her verse for the song.
"I've been waiting for the phone to ring all night Why you wanna make me feel so good I got a love of my own baby I shouldn't get so hung up on you"
"Oh I remember the way that we touch I wish I didn't like it so much" the girls jumped up and down a few times, eagerly anticipating the chorus.
Rachel played off of Spencer's moves and just had fun with the chorus. Jumping and just letting loose on that stage like she had never done before. This was already turning out to be a great duet.
"Oh I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do"
"Ain't it shocking what love can do" Spencer took the first echo with a bright smile.
"Ain't it shocking what love can do"
The girls gave each other a little wink and swung their hips before taking opposite sides of the stage. Spencer going off in search of her main guy to mime to him that they need to talk after the show.
"I gotta watch you walk in the room baby I gotta watch you walk out I like the animal way you move And when you talk I just watch your mouth
Oh I remember the way that we touch I wish I didn't like it so much
Oh I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do"
Rachel then decided to go out into the audience and give high fives and shaking hands as she would go up and down the isles smiling around.
To finish out the song, Spencer walked back onto the stage, getting ready to put it all into the big finish that they had planned. She was full of smiles and even gave a wink to the boy she had singled out. Everything seemed to fall right into place for Spencer, and she knew that she was finally going to transition into a more grown-up style of music.
I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do Ain't it shocking what love can do Ain't it shocking what love can do
See I remember the way that we touch I wish I didn't like it so much
No no no, I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do
I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do
I get so emotional baby I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do
I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do
I get so emotional baby Every time I think of you I get so emotional baby Ain't it shocking what love can do
"I get so emotional... Oh baby!" the girls capped off the truncated version of the song with amazingly powerful vocalizations, ending the song beautifully. Spencer ended with a shrug. Maybe she could pull off Whitney.
