no key to be found

bad: “stuck on you” – lionel richie – the man had something when he was wailing with the commodores on “easy” … and perhaps i can allow him some happiness for singing “endless love” with diana ross … but “stuck on you” is probably the low mark of his career. he phones-in the vocals and has all the confidence of a cockroach under a hovering boot. “i’m mighty glad ya stayed.” why? i’m not.

worse: “stuck on you” as sung by a co-worker two rows over. even a song as insipid as this one has a key to be found somewhere, but she’s not even warm. she’s cold. way cold. she’s lost the key and is going for a crowbar and hammer instead.

    I can sing it, too:

    Got a feelin’ down deep in my soul, I just can’t lose.
    Now I’m oooooooon my waay…

    Let me tell you where you can stick your key, mister.

    If we’re not allowed to sing bad songs badly, then this must be Ashcroft’s blog.

    I guess maybe I shouldn’t have hired David Hasselhoff to sing at your surprise party in March.

    Next time she sing badly, join her. Then take picture of all the prarie dogs.

    The only way to get her back is to play K.C. and the Sunshine Band’s Greatest Hits. Loudly. For added effect, wear the appropriate shoes and do the Hustle in front of her cube while singing loudly.

    Alternatively, do a David Helfgott – whenenver she starts to sing, start to make loud noises, sing bits of “Mary Had a Little Lamb,” or play the stapler, until she stops. Then act as though nothing happened.
