sounds like a '70s-centric set in store. Shatner is TOTHK, covering Sinatra. ("shatner" is, of course, the past tense of "shitner".)
what's the story?  This wasn't a hit. Missed the opening; did he announce rules?

he said he was "throwing out the rulebook" because someone made a strong case for Shatner.

OMFG! Billy ray Cyrus and some new HFH blood!  A welcome bustout. So... how many powerful gay producers in H'wood did he sleep with to give his daughter a career?

Perhaps redundant to give WOS votes, but I'll give one to Billy Ray.  (My office-mate: "Oh, this is Miley's dad!")

probably -- see my comments above. I liked this record at the time -- for what it is, it's actually quite clever and catchy. Unfortunately he had to actually, y'know, go on stage and perform and then it was obvious how limited his talent was.

as always I protest "We Built This City"'s inclusion -- one of the most unfairly maligned songs, like, ever.

I'll continue to rep for "We Built This City" as a fun song that would be warmly remembered if it had been done by some smart-ass one-offs like the Flying Lizards or Boys Don't Cry.  BOS, nyah!

I have to admit I agree with the above comments -- this song never bothered me the way it does for SO many folks...

worst of the worst -- Debbie Boone. It isn't even well-produced.
