As many of you might know.... I am a music nut. I love music. Today Al and I were having a coversation over the phone about some outrage.
Apparently Jessica Simpson has a remake of the song "Take My Breath Away" originally by Berlin.
I have no problems with remakes as long as it is done tastfully. But c'mon. Jessica Simpson? I haven't heard her version yet but can it be anything remotely close to Berlin's version? Granted that "Take my Breath Away" was Berlin's sell out song. But still...
Al said that problem will be "the generations of kids will hear that song and say hey that is a Jessica Simpson song".
seriously....
Lame.... Lame kids....
I am all about originality. Like I said there are some remakes that are done well. And I can't say much about that. But really... C'mon. I don't even mind some sampling like rapper do cause they take something and make it their own.
Lisa and I were talking about this guy Jason Mraz the otherday... She actually made me a Live CD of his.... Cause she bought tickets to see him. I am going to a Mraz concert.... I will be pushing 12 year old girls out of the way... I am certain I will be Mrazmerized....
But....
Lisa - Did you hear that live album?
Da Fevah - Oh yeah....
Lisa - Do like that one Mraz song?
Da Fevah - which one?
Lisa - Our House?
Da Fevah - You mean the one that goes "Our House, in the middle of the street" That Mraz Song?
Lisa - Yeah that one...
Da Fevah - hahahaha! yeah... I heard that Mraz Song....
Lisa - why are you laughing?
Da Fevah - Cause that is my favorite Mraz song.(in my sarcatic voice)
Lisa - why are being so sarcastic?
Da Fevah - Cause it's not a Mraz song...
Lisa - Oh.... Its not?
Da Fevah - No babe... Its Madness.
Lisa - why is it madness? He sounds good! (getting slightly irritated)
Da Fevah - hahahhaha! No babe... That is the name of the band... Madness... hahahhaa
Lisa - oh... hahahahaha!
BTW- Mraz is a talented singer. I am not saying that he sucks... And babe, don't say "I am gonna give these tickest to someone else" cause believe it or not I am looking forward to going....
