My parents have been collecting cds from the early 90s and I still have more cds than them. Isn't that a bit weird?
I guess whilst others watch TV or play computer games, I listen to music
He does a duet with Mel C?! Weird! But then he isn't afraid to duet with anyone. I like that about him. He isn't snobby. He did a duet with Cleopatra for goodness sake. How muhc lower can you get?! I love it! |

Yeah, he does Barcelona with her. Think this version was better than the one with Mr. Ryder but still not good.  |

It was originally sung by Freddie Mercury and Montserrat Caball?© on the occasion of the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992. |

There was my thinking Elvis had sung it...
I like your collection Rainy. You should try Sissel. She has a great poppy/crossover album called 'All Good Things'
Anyone else think Josh Groban is a male version of Celine Dion? |

I think Josh is a crooner more than a classical singer. Don't get me wrong, I love him. He just seems to sing a load of ballads worthy of Celine Dion. I actually like Celine Dion  |

I thought so as you said you like female voices. I - in opposite - am not very keen on female voices, so I don't like Celine Dion very much. But I totally agree about the crooner thing.  |

| unfortunately out of my list i like Josh the least, not cos i dont like him i just prefer the other artists more. I found out about Josh through watching his guest appearances on ally mcbeal and bought his album. |

| He had a guest appearance in Ally McBeal? Interesting. Didn't watch it so I don't know. But I think I saw him somewhere else on TV, I cannot remember which series though. I'd also say I like him least of all the (male) xover artists I know. A bit too much slow stuff for me. |
