So, it is understandable why you had to resort to some obscure Australian song that we didn't know for your performance. But you need to be careful. Your fan base has the potential to go beyond the teen-set, but performances like Imagine are becoming further and further from our memory. If you don't stop the cheesy performances, you will lose all fan base over the age of 18. You *could* overcome teen heartthrob status a la Justin Timberlake. But, play your cards wrong and you might wind up as Richard Marx. (blondie gives Cupcake a hug, and sends him skipping on his merry way. Cupcake immediately goes to go google Richard Marx, since he has no idea who that is....).

His performance last night was bad. I thought Simon hit the nail on the head when he said that he felt like there should be a bunch of theme park characters up on stage with him and then they all start to join in.
So I looked up the top songs of 1990 and came up with
this list. The top 10 are mostly songs you never hear anymore, but there are some good ones far down the list. Too bad David already sang Another Day in Paradise, which is #7!
As a side note, I can't believe U Can't Touch This is only #56?!
