The final heat for Senior Superstar Brisbane was on of the toughest. It was a singers heat with eight of the nine acts performing a variety of songs including some penned by themselves. The golden art of whistling also made an appearance. It was a very close decision for the top three acts with room having to be made for yet another tie.
Glenys Anderson impressed and amused all with a song she wrote herself about her love life called “Claytons Romance”.
Dressed in army greens, Richard Wade whistled his way through to the semis with his accompanist Mary De Vries on keyboards.
The tie was between first time entrant Ah Kow Lee who sung the Engelbert Humperdinck hit “Last Waltz” and Fay Cooper, dressed in a fifties styled rock n roll theme to match the Connie francis song “Stupid Cupid”.
People’s Choice went to George Prior from Durack. Judges commented that George channelled Al Jolson when he sung “You Made Me Love You”.
All will be performing at the second semi final held on Sunday 8 August 2pm at Souths Sports Club.
