Go tell it on the mountain

Hey I hate to be a downer on such a great day and all but using Aretha Franklin as the go to singer for major events has got to fucking stop. I mean come on what is this 1965 when her voice still sounded like not old. Maybe this is sacrilege but I think its time to for a change, for real. She sounds like she has a mouth full of grits when she sings now. I mean I would have even opted for dusting off Whitney and pushing her on stage. Am I wrong? Am ...I...wrong?

Also, oh yeah, and also watching Seal sing "Change is Gonna Come" is not cool, not cool at all. I think the story about the tribal marking on his face is bullshit. I know what tribal marking is, and it ain't what he got going on ladies and gentlemen. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it usually neat and in a pattern like said picture below? Seal when are you going to stop all the lies!

That is all.

Interesting. I was wondering the same thing. But I heard that Seal had lupus as a kid and that's why his scars healed the way they did.

About the Aretha Thing- I totally feel you! She looks horrid and her days are over. Please retire to the world of cheesy casinos!
