Word Up is a very kick-ass song. It is on my mp3 player. Shows my age. Dalm.

It's not right to put the more recent acts on the same show as the 80's bigtimers. I mean, the first show with Loverboy and a Flock of Seagulls, but putting in Arrested Development - a more recent 90's band was unfair. And, of course, Arrested Development won the night. They were good though! And the second show, pairing the Motels and Tommy with Vanilla. I knew Vanilla would win (unless he totally f'ed up). And he won. (He did a nice job on Survivor though). It probably just worked out that way because they only planned on the three shows and tried to mix them up. But obviously the older singers are going to have more problems. I was really looking forward to Loverboy and the Motels doing good. But with the "ravages" of time on the singers and band members, they can't hang with the younger ones. Oh well, I'm going to keep watching anyway!!

I couldn't find this thread! Anyone else here? Wang Chung Lead singer has a face like a death mask. Looks tired! (Still like his accent!) Pony tail guitarist guy creepy. Sound okay. Sounds the same minus the spark, though. Doing a Nelly song on 2nd set. ETA: Yay, Cablejockey!

Sophie B. Hawkins Wish I Was (poor grammar, btw) Your Lover If they hadn't played that song by her, I wouldn't have known who she was. Still looking HOT!! Wow! But . . . so far, her voice is NOTHING. Now, more power, but the backup singers are really important to giving it balance and fullness. Welp . . . eh on her singing.

She does make up for lack of talent with a real sense of loving performance, though. Fun to watch.

Finally convinced my dh to watch . . . so funny . . . he just walked in--gave me a quizzical look, like what in the world was all this excitement about-- and said, "She was terrible! And the first group wasn't that much better."

If you go to the nbc site for the show and click on each group you can get the lyrics to the song their singing. Cameo still looks good and sounds the way they did.

I like his song. It's very mellow and still suits his voice.

Howard Jones next. Hi, Mak!! No One Is To Blame (I think that's the title) Another aged-looking guy. How do they get the nerve to come on here? Oh, I always liked this song!! Love the lyrics and the style. He's playing the piano and singing. His tone is still good, but he's rushing it--tempo seems off. I'm rather enjoying this quiet number.

Hi HP!! Yes, that is the correct title. P_Sam, no, I don't think Lithgow has enough hair on top to kewpie it.
