Politicians, nightly news readers, movie stars, people in the lime light are called to task for any comment that is the least little bit not politically correct. Rock stars, on the other hand, seem to be able to sing or say just about anything. Should everyone be held to high standards, or like me, do you think everyone should have the right to voice their opinions without fear of retribution?

While the song "Jump" was catchy it lasted a lot longer than Kris Kross did. What do think of Kris Kross with the baggy, backwards pants and their preteen rap.

It's cool. Entertaining and fun. I like it.

I just read an article about Jonny Lang, a guitar prodigy at 16. Around here we have been seeing a lot of young musical talent. Do you notice that happening around you?

  >Yes

    Sort of

    No

Here's one for you musical conspiracy folks. Do you think that Yoko Ono broke up the Beatles?

    Yes

  >Could be

    Nope

Extreme rock (i.e., modern hard rock) ... that's what the "hardDrive" radio show with Lou Brutus is all about. The show's not everywhere ... do you get a show like this on your local radio?

    Yes, I listen to Lou Brutus

  >Yes, we have something similar

    No, but I wish we did

    No, but I'm not into extreme rock

    No

I'm not choosing him as the winner, but Adam Lambert was really impressive with his rendition of Smokey's "The Tracks of My Tears". And then I heard that on this supposedly 'live' show, the group songs are pre-recorded and the contestants lip-sync. How much does lip-syncing take away from a performance?

How do you speak easy?

I say it slowly and clearly.

What makes a great singer?

A great singer is one who knows his song really well and can internalize the message it sends out.
