We should wait until Kanye West has a chance to weigh in on this. He may say that Beyonce is a better choice.

Some things ought never be meddled with. One of the chief offenders of such meddling is Disney: they meddle in everything and have no sense of propriety or shame. So I am not a bit surprised at their involvement in this fiasco.

George Gershwin’s music ought to remain unfinished, and Wilson ought to leave it alone. He is an adequate musician in his own right, but George Gershwin he is not. And can never be.

Disney’s blasphemies have nearly come to completion.

My favorite Gershwin, ‘Walkin’ the Dog’ with Fred & Ginger. :)

Bad idea. Let Gershwin be Gershwin and Brian be Brian.
