I just wanted to state a fact. So much talent, although I never considered myself a fan, i have to give him recognition.

I'd agree.

Chris Isaak is his modern equivalent.

I never really liked his music. but yes, I agree, he had talent.

Only the Lonely and Pretty Woman is my party piece on the old Karaoke down the pub. I like the Big O.

What's so fucking special about Chris Isaak then?

Botley · #9 09-10-2005, 02:33 PM

Nothing, he's just a popular entertainer with charisma and a great voice.

And a pretty decent songwriter. And a reasonably good guitar player.
