That was a good song. I liked it.
I think they apologized to Kat because of all of the phone calls after the show to Fox. Otherwise, they wouldn't have.
As an aside, things have just gotten infinately more interesting.
Earlier today I wrote an email to Vote For the Worst, asking them to consider helping Taylor out, by selecting him as their next contestant. I explained the various things we'eve discussed recently, such as Simon's drunk remarks, the awful lighting, the last minute song changes, how Try a little Tenderness really IS a love song and Nigle lied saying it wasn't. I suggested the best way to get back at AI and Cowell would be to endorse Hicks.
Anyway, I haven't heard back from them yet, but I just popped into their site and see they have chosen their new contestant. TAYLOR HICKS!
From looking at their forum it seems the Soul Patrol is all for it! We don't care where the votes come from, hee hee.
Seems a lot of Vote For The Worst actually like him because he is the anti idol. He's not a pop tart! LOL
WOOOOOOOO.... Soul Patrol!
Me too. Re the songs next week, they do two, one from the year they were born and any song from this weeks Top 10 Billboard Charts. We've been talking about songs for Taylor from 1976 because that's the year he was born. Just FYI, the top 10 songs on the four most important Billboard charts are below.

There are other Billboard charts, including Modern Rock, R&B/HipHop, Latin, etc. But the top few songs in those genres normally are on Billboard's Hot 100 chart, which combines all genres. For example, Dani California is the #1 song on the Modern Rock chart, while What You Know and Be Without You are 1 and 2 on the R&B/HipHop chart.
I'll need to hear the song to jog my memory.

They have the music that you can listen to as you read the lyrics...
Bat out of Hell was a monster album.
Lot's of great get drunk and sing tunes
of course that was close to 20 years ago so......
Thanks for the lyrics, misterrob. I went over to the MSN music store and listened to a clip. WOW! That is a GREAT, great song for Taylor. Absolutely perfect for his voice.
LOL!
That was one of my step brothers favorite albums. And yes he was a partier! LOL Still is!
To me this site is for cynical 20 somethings who believe in Haliburton/neocon conspiracies. To them everyone sucks.
Funny picture though...
Actually, they like Taylor and are hopin he will give a shout out to their site owner! They are getting the biggest laugh out of the merging of VFTW with Soul Patrolers. Soul Patrolers have joined VFTW's site and they are mingling and having fun. VFTW sent an email to one of the Hicks site extending the olive branch, their words. LOL
Wonder how Taylor would do with "The Tracks of My Tears"(Linda Ronstadt in 1976 but orignially a Motown classic by Smokey Robinson.) "Cupid"(Tony Orlando in 1976 but originally Sam Cooke) is another that caught my eye. "Only Sixteen"(Dr. Hook 1976) is another Sam Cooke song on the list but Taylor's gray hair might may that one a little creepy.:-O
But I am going to vote for Elliott this coming week and enter this contest for the first time in my life.
Looking through 1979(Elliott) and having trouble. Maybe "I'll Never Love This Way Again"(Dionne Warwick) or "We've Got Tonight"(Bob Seger).

teeth can be fixed, and that voice needs no fixing....
Me too. So what do you do, vote with phone calls? I'm ready to sign on for this week at least...but I have never done this before.
I think tracks of my tears would be a good song for him.

Possibly, "Don't Do Me Like That"(Tom Petty)
