Is this where we invoke the “never fail to underestimate the American people” statement?
Kris Allen definitely has a nice touch, and is capable of fine interpretation. But in spite of Simon’s reminders, AI is not a singing competition. It is a popularity contest.
I liked the Black Eyed Peas, and loved seeing Carlos Santana (one of my all time favorites). I think Rod may have been a little incapacitated, but he hit his stride eventually. Brian May and Queen were inevitable, and I would love to see Adam fronting them for a tour. As far as Kiss goes, I never cared for them or their music. The Archie’s in makeup. Now, Adam and Ziggy Stardust or Mott the Hoople- that would have been cool!
“Easily identified by its members’ trademark face paint and stage outfits, the group rose to prominence in the mid and late-1970s on the basis of their elaborate live performances, which featured fire breathing, blood spitting, smoking guitars, and pyrotechnics. Kiss has been awarded 24 gold albums to date.[1] The band has sold over 19 million records in the United States[2] and their worldwide sales exceed 85 million albums.[3]”
“Archies in makeup” Thats a good one…………….
