  • And the Fandom Rejoiced: While opinions aren't unanimous, Sara Bareilles is generally viewed as marked improvement over Nicole Scherzinger, who left to become a judge for The X-Factor.
  • Awesome Music: Due to the level of musical skill required to pull off a good a capella performance, there are many contenders. One highlight from Season 3 is Afro-Blue's jazz reinterpretation of Estelle's "American Boy."
  • Covered Up: Has been known to happen, especially when a good group performs a "Current Pop Hit" or "Guilty Pleasure" . For instance, after hearing North Shore's doo-wop take on Bruno Mars' "Lazy Song," it's tough to recall the original.
    • Pretty much anything Pentatonix has done... seriously.
  • Elimination Houdini: Vocal Point in third season, whose survival essentially amounted to pity because the baritone's father died just before filming.
  • Funny Moments:
    • For Guilty Pleasure week, the Yellow Jackets, a group of college guys performed Wannabe by Spice Girls. The results were amazing.
    • And then they hammed it up for the swan song, with Chumbawumba's "Tubthumping".

"Shawny boy... Benny boy... Sara boy..."
