O/T - Torn.

[mickd1961]

I have always hated the song, I am absolutely gutted they have updated a one hit wonder that I was beginning to erase from my memory after twenty odd years.
There is too much of this type of s hit on the radio these days, usually by run of the mill soap stars who suddenly feel they have to do a cover of a song.
I only listen to Absolute, stuff like this wouldn't be tolerated.
I blame Kylie, she started the whole thing off. Soap stars should stay in the soap's where people like me can see them, not clutter the airwaves with garbage because the character they were playing had been run over by a car. Yes, her out of EastEnders was another one.
People buy rubbish these days, instantly forgettable tuneless mediocrity. The sort of stuff you would every day to lifers as a punishment or to people in an old people's home who don't know what day it is.
I have always hated gimmicky songs, too many have prevented class songs from reaching number one.
There are some great artists out there, there always have been, but you won't find many of them in the charts which is full of mainly meaningless, mediocre drivel.
Even the seventies had loads of rubbish in the charts, like Osmonds, Bay City Rollers and Lieutenant bloody Pigeon.
I am hard to please though, I always thought Elvis was an overated puppet, so Natalie isn't going to cut it with me. Sorry.

Lovely morning again though.

Torn is hardly The Birdie Song or Agadoo Des!

It’s a well crafted song and beautifully sung, I’m not a music “snob” personally, I think it’s a classy rendition.

I suppose you’ll think this “silly song” is rubbish as well even though sung by one of the greatest female singers in history in my opinion.

Mediocrity of song and singer. Far more female singers that are way better.

Donna Summer - superb, Imbruglia - liked the original version, think she plays guitar on some of her songs too, average in the sense that there are many around that are better.
