Heston will back me up here

His last two albums are better than anything else he has done in his career, easily. They're produced by Rick Rubin and similar to Johnny Cash's American Recordings.
Yes Flex, I'll back you up. I'm not the biggest fan of his music (though he has some great songs) but it's all in that voice. It's a magnificent thing.

I could never narrow my parameters like that, if it's good it's good, sod demographics.

Cracklin Rose, Cherry Cherry, those are good pop songs.

All hail Neil Diamond.

Worst part of any game at Fenway is the singing of Sweet Caroline. Awful, awful song, made awfulerest by 35,000+ simultaneous off-tune versions.

I think we've had this discussion before and came to the conclusion that you just hate it when people are having fun around you.

Yeah. For years, I thought UB40's version was a cover of that 60s reggae version I had on a Trojan comp. It was only a few years ago that I learned THAT was a cover as well.

I believe that that's part of my platform when I eventually run for office: No more fun.
