KT, I’ll say it again; her high register is floatingly light and beautiful.

Oh yeah, amazingly so. Like I said, she gives me chills. When you hear her talk though, she sounds like any other squeaky voiced 10 year old girl. But when she starts singing,, WOW!

Alice Cooper was the first concert I went to(I think it was 1974) and the leaders of the Turtles, touring as “Flo And Eddie” opened, so they were the first big rock band I saw.

That’s cool. Did “Alice,” do his straight jacket bit? Where he would sing, “The Ballad of Dwight Frye?” Great bit to see live.

A little change in genre here…

Chopin’s Aeolian Harp Etude

I studied this piece in college. It never fails to bring me to my knees and tears to my eyes! For those of you who are not classical fans, it’s short! And the young lady playing is superb!

Beautiful Em. And she is really good. The passion in her face as she plays is remarkable.

KT, total mastery of the keyboard! She makes it look so easy when it is actually very, very difficult! I slaved over this piece when I was in college after 15+ years of piano.

Dead or Alive – You Spin Me Round

Okay, sue me, I actually think this is a really awesome song. I will not feel guilty!—

Animotion – Obsession

Britney Spears – Toxic

I’m pretty transparent on this one, the chick is smokin’ hot. I’m an easy sell—

Toy Box – Tarzan and Jane

Lene Nystrom – It’s Your Duty (To Shake That Booty)

Not so much guilty, as it is just not my normal taste in music, no disrespect to Beyoncée—

Destiny’s Child – Bootylicious

I wanna know the story of how this became a sports anthem—

Kernkraft 400 – Zombie Nation

One of my all time favorites. It expresses so very well how I felt many, many times.
