Whenever I peel Potatoes or Carrots or Beetroots or Parsnips, I always sing ....

Peelings, Oh, Oh oh oh, Peelings

You see Hugh, all the competitors were all established pop stars, in many foreign domains, all of them?

So, what do we make of this?

In the same week, Destiny's Child re-formed...

Jessie was upstaging and punching (as always) above her weight.

The final and most of the rounds, to be honest, were karaoke greatest hits, though Jessie held her own vocally, when does she not?

This for me is the best bit of the whole journey. I have loved this tune all my life , in all its manifestations, as has Jessie J self professedly.

This tune fits her vocal range perfectly, pitch perfect at times, don't let that put you off.

My favourite Knowles sister incidently.

It seems everyone 'cept me forgot about Kiesza. Change that.

 

[bamber]

Bamber, you keep playin' where you should not be playin' .

When I woke up this mornin' ...
I did not dream I'd be listenin' to this.

Love Miley. Must play G2019 (guitar included)

 

[bamber]

Proof if needed that not much changes. Fuck racists and the legislation they bottom piss out of their dirty shit holes.

Still going after all these years, born 1944, Gladys Knight would be perfect for a Sunday Afternoon in Somerset 2019?

Second in a series of ladies (noted for their singing) who don't often play guitar, but can.

Third in a series, yada...

 

[bamber]

Fuck that it's fake expectation..

Not just the greatest living singer, arguably the greatest lyricist also?

Love this song so much. Masterpiece.

 

[bamber]

Mahalia Jackson is often cited as the greatest. I reserve judgment on that one.

Very worth watching this though.....

 

 

[bamber]

The goldie note hitters rise to the top. Ri Ri can sing, the first few minutes prove that and are much better the end which is shite....

 

.

Fourth in a series...

Some c**t with a phone got a half tidy recording of this all things considered. Live was better, but that is gone.

Every shade of Awesome.

2001 London, seems like an age ago already. Simpler times, better times.

Destiny's Child in their Prime. better times indeed.

This was near my hotel and I walked past it every morning.

The best Amy portrait,  captures that look in the eye.

I find myself in discussions with myself sometimes... (about who is actually the best)

No answers to be honest.
