Title: Karen Carpenter is rolling over in her grave
Product review: Barf. Clay Aiken has taken a great Carpenters song and just mauled it to death by doing vocal acrobatics repeatedly on its head until all meaning died a horrible, gasping death. Karen Carpenter knew something none of these American Idol kids have learned...subtlety. Not every single line needs to be belted out as you zoom through three octaves. Sometimes quiet and simple says it best.Or as Ani DiFranco says, "Half of knowing how to play, is knowing what NOT to play." We all know you can sing Clay. Now try to mean what you're singing.
