Kailas | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 11:46 am     Okay, so I am showing my age and stage. But, why would I want to watch her go into the house. Someone help me out here. They are advertising that starting at 10 pm next Thursday, it will be a Sheryl Crow concert. I hope the HG are aware of her and are fans..... |
Draheid | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 11:51 am     Check out her website at http://www.sherylcrow.com/ for details. |
Marymc | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 11:51 am     she's a singer/songwriter....had a couple big hits with "a change will do you good" and another one with the lyric "i like a good beer buzz early in the morning..." can't remember the title of that one. |
Battlestar | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 11:56 am     yes--they will be aware of who she is. You are really showing your age cause Sheryl Crow is one of those rock and roll entertainers that have been around about a decade.... http://www.rollingstone.com/artists/bio.asp?oid=97&cf=97 |
Texastillie | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 11:57 am     I don't get what she has to do with this game? I love BB but don't care to have to sit through a Sheryl Crow concert just to watch it! |
Battlestar | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:03 pm     --Does CBS have a record label?? Maybe Sheryl Crow is a BB fan and people who have never watched BB will tune in tosee Sheryl Crow |
Zachsmom | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:06 pm     um Battlestar..I am 33 and never heard of her until this week..so if 33 is is old... |
Maris | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:08 pm     I love Sheryl Crow. She is one of my favorite songwriter/singers. For those of you that dont know her, you are in for a treat. |
Rissa | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:09 pm     Sheryl Crow is the one singer that my husband, my teenage daughter and I all agree on when picking a CD for the car. LOL I would definately tune in to see her sing even if I wasn't a BB watcher. Sure beats the heck out of that lame Survivor visit from last year. |
Maesin | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:12 pm     From what I have heard Crow is a huge fan of the show. I guess she did something for one of the opening BB songs??? Not sure about that, but heard it rumoured. I usually don't like her songs when I first hear them, but they grow on me over time. I am somewhat sick of "Soak Up the Sun". It's on too much at work, but I like the other one she just released. |
Texastillie | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:13 pm     Well, maybe it will draw some non-BB Sheryl Crow fans and then next they can bring in some wrestlers and then maybe that guy who catches alligators. I was really excited about the 2-hour show but sheesh! This concert thing is really irritating. |

Dfwteddy | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:15 pm     As the eviction vote is that morning (though it won't be revealed until the Thursday evening program), it will be a nice break for everyone before Chiara leaves the next day. Let Sheryl sing, otherwise it would just be another night of Chiara whining about Gerry and I've heard that song. |
Espen | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:20 pm     I think she is going to sing three songs, so I doubt it will take the whole show.. Hopefully they will show more of the houseguests interacting with a "real" celebrity.. That was a highlight of the Norwegian BB when I caught some of it.. The Survivor thing last year was kinda anti-climactic, as they were more pseudo-celebrities.. |
Jimmer | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:44 pm     Remember it's a 2 hour show when she sings so they'll have time for other stuff. |
What555456 | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:46 pm     This whole things seems really stupid to me. If CBS wants to showcase Ms. Crow, then let her get her own show. I much prefer to watch the little HG critters and all of their machinations. I do not intend to watch her concert -- I have no interest in it. Much less to watch a captive group fawning and groveling over her as if she is some sort of Goddess -- which is what all of these HG's will be doing. I can't just see the dumb smiles and far away looks in thier eyes as she sings. I wonder if we will get FOTH as they rehearse the way they are supposed to look and act so that Ms. Crow appears as if she were as big as Paul McCartney. What a waste of an hour. |
Espen | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:48 pm     Actually they have advertised the live feed version of the concert both on the CBS site and the realone site, so I do think we will see it live also.. That doesn't make it worth watching per se, but at least it is nice of them to let it be shown on the live feed.. That said, there will probably still be plenty of FOTH.. hopefully they secured the rights to play her songs on the internet! *grin* |
Lumbele | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 12:58 pm     Don't feel bad, Kailas. You are not the only old fogey around here. My first reaction on hearing the teaser was "Who the he11 is Sheryl Crow?" , only getting a blank stare and a shrug of the shoulders from my husband. But then he is even a few years older. After reading up on the links above (ty, Draheid and Battlestar) I am now looking forward to seeing her perform, love R&B. Could be a *nice* surprise after all. |
Lovemarc | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 01:01 pm     Funny some people don't know who she is. She's been big for close to a decade. |
Lovemarc | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 01:16 pm     Lumbele - I wouldn't classify her as R&B...more soft rock/pop. |
Draheid | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 01:18 pm     IMO, I think she's a little more 'Folk Rock' with a hint of R&B ... but I love her music and will definitely be watching the live feeds AND the show! |
Lumbele | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 01:27 pm     TY, Lovemarc and Draheid. Soft/folk rock/pop this old fogey can handle, I think, hope.  |
Hosewater | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 01:29 pm     Even those of you who don't know her name will probably recognize a song or two... "All I wanna do is have some fun, I've got a feeling I'm not the only one" OR "If it makes you happy Then why the hell are you so sad?" OR "Every day is a winding road" Those are the three I hear all the time. Also, regardless of whether the houseguests all know or love her, they are going to be absolutely ecstatic to have some live rock 'n' roll. You can bet they will all be thrilled beyond belief and will talk about the concert all night and the next day. Remember when the Survivors went in the house last year? Some of the houseguests did not know the show or the Survivors, yet they were still thrilled and excited to have people to interact with. I just have a question.... The set-up and possible rehearsal is going to be noisy. How will they keep the houseguests from hearing it all? |
Curlyq | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 01:39 pm     Maybe this has been brought up already, but how do you think Marcellas will react to this? I saw in a video clip at the CBS website Marcellas firmly telling Amy not to sing. He said "Amy...no singing! I keep telling you I have a problem with people who sing around me. I don't like live performances...I don't go to concerts. I don't go to piano bars. I don't like live performances...It makes me anxious." He's going to be freaking out! Maybe he'll just be screaming on the inside. |
Willnu | Saturday, August 17, 2002 - 02:26 pm     I dont think a celebrity visit is really good for the show in my opinion..I dont think they should start down that road..if they do it this time you know it will become a staple in the future. I kind of resent the celebrities "horning" in on these shows that are supposed to be "regular" people.. |
