As for Chris, I just didn't the way he did that song last night. Struck me as 'dark, eery'.

I agree. It's one thing to make a song your own, and quite another to make it totally unrecognizable. In a way, it's kind of like ripping off the lyrics from someone else's song and putting your own melody to it. Not good.

That's IT exactly! Had I been scanning radio stations I would never have recognized it and would not have listened to it for long either.

Speaking of such. I have a question for you, since you listen to a lot of music. Have you ever heard Bob Rivers and Twisted Radio? I ask because on one of their tapes (happens to be a Christmas one) they sing 'Oh Little Town of Bethlehem' to the music of 'House of the Rising Sun'. I just wondered if you had ever heard that?
