Dom,

Now we're getting somewhere. Call me uncultured (I prefer the more PC "differently cultured," thank you [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] ), but I hadn't heard those songs before, and I like them. Nice picks.

Origami,

Personally, if I was going to sing a very well-known song on national television, and I knew that I didn't have the vocal range to sing it as well as the original recording, I would choose a different song to sing. Not having the range to jump the fifth is an excuse in a karaoke bar, but it doesn't fly for a professional musician on national TV imo. Pick a song that showcases your strengths, not that will leave people thinking that you butchered a classic.

Also, turns out I know Brass in Pocket, too. I never knew who sang either it or "I'll Stand By You," but now I do. Again, differently cultured. I don't care for Brass in Pocket as much, though. I wasn't quite as hot on Message of Love, either.
