First we had American Idol, then America's Got Talent, Rock-star INXS, Glee and too many more for me to remember. But if you missed last night's " Sing-Off" you missed some pretty cool singing.
Sing Off is following on the success of High School Musical and Glee and is a voice only singing competition. This is a short series, only 4 episodes, so it doesn't need a long committment to watch. I mean, how can you pass up a show hosted by Nick Lachey with Ben Folds as one of the judges and a guest judge from The Pussycat Dolls !
Last night was the first round, with 8 singing groups competing. We had a great group from Puerto Rico, 2 different faith based groups, an all woman barbershop quartet and a group from Nebraska that just started singing together a few weeks ago and one totally awesome group from Tufts University called Beezelbubs ( whom I hope will be the winners).
Check out their spin on Magical Mystery Tour!

Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture.
I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons.
1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels.
2) I used to...
Hello to all from Nfusion. Another round of challenges has moved beyond us all. Congrats to those of us lucky enough to have survived to this point. Sad to see the others eliminated as they were all very creative and talented. Good Bye to our new friends...
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...
