Michael McDonald On Leno
It’s late and I’m a happy girl. Michael McDonald just sang You Don’t Know Me on the Tonight Show. The man has an incredible voice and his version of the song was totally sweet. Before his version, the Ray Charles version was my favorite.
The song is off of his newly released album Soul Speak .
Mmmmm. He could sing the words off a cereal box and I’d be a happy girl. Good grief…the man is handsome. How old is he? One second while I google it – he was born in 1952…so that makes him 56? Not bad, Michael.
Gotta go download the album off iTunes. :)
American Idol – Season 172
What season is this? Five, Six, or Seven. I can’t remember.
Here’s my favorites:
- David Cook
- Carly Smithson
- Michael Johns
- Amanda Overmyer
Poor little David Archleta. He bombed this week. Forgot the words, forgot the tune, got tortured by the judges. Ouch! Let’s hope he makes it through to next week. He’s so darn cute.
Luther Vandross Had a Tracheotomy
Latest news on Luther Vandross
News of the stroke was bad enough. Now, a tracheotomy. The report says they didn’t damage his vocal chords. Good grief. I’d really like to see him pull through, but it doesn’t look good. I saw Luther in concert in Los Angeles during his really large stage. Anita Baker opened up for him. I saw him in San Diego a few years later and the brother looked healthy, but less vibrant. Let that be a lesson to you…chubby equals vibrant. Okay…it was a nice try. Right?
I have so many memories of life tied to Luther’s songs. He’s releasing a new CD in June titled Dance With My Father. Lord willing, he’ll pull through this.
