That's a massive drop. They lost almost a quarter of their viewers. I do hope they make the right changes next year to get the show back on track.

Doesn't mean he'd sing them well, but really their songs are to me the best pop music ever written- even most of their latter stuff. Pop fused with 1,001 other jenres, but still pop. Even the full orchestra songs you could play with 4-5 chords on guitar and it would still sound OK. ~Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢ll be happy if I never hear someone do a cover of à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“I am the walrusà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬  although Ià ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢m sure ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s been done but I wonà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t go look for it~ You never heard Oasis' full-on distortion version then, have you?

I'm totally beyond a normal age of being a Hanson fan. But I highly respect this band. I also have a daughter who was at the right age when that song came out. You get where this is going. Regardless, I've grown to greatly appreciate and respect them as musical artists. I've seen them in concert(with my daughter) numerous times. They put on one HELL of a show. And this isn't being an "MMMBop" fan, although I do like the song, that intrigued me on the band initially. (And I'm not going into the actual meaning behind the song, because I do know the importance behind it), but they are a great band and if you're brave enough I recommend to look into some of the newer music. Now BACK on topic, I can already picture how this whole duet of "I Saw her standing there" is going to go. Can we say "Cheesy" and involving Blake fawning all over Jordin. I may actually slightly enjoy this.

I think a lot of their earlier material does have a traditional "pop" formula and some songs have been covered to death. However, I don't think that can be said about their latter material. Let's put it this way, I'll be happy if I never hear someone do a cover of "I am the walrus" although I'm sure it's been done but I won't go look for it. There are some Beatles songs I want left alone. Being AI I'm sure they may stray from some of the less "poppier" songs, if you will.
