Take These Songs and Learn To Sing

I continue to be thoroughly unimpressed by the American Idol "singers." The song choices are unbelievably bad. All Stevie Wonder, Celine Dion, and Aretha Franklin songs should be banned immediately. They've been done to death.

Here's two songs that will NEVER be performed because no one has the raw talent to sing them-Kate Bush's "Running Up That Hill" and Concrete Blonde's "Joey." Anyone who could sing, or better yet, sell one of those songs would become the Idol in waiting.

I'm also still waiting for someone to do a good job on a George Michael or Cindy Lauper song. The few attempts in the past have been absolute disasters.
