    Here's a song I sang at a gala a while back. I haven't ripped the performance from the DVD, so I just sang this on the fly. My voice is a bit tired now, so it's not the best vocally. Also, this also seem to be a little pitchy, but it's definitely not as bad as the ones above.

    Man. I hate to say it, but you need some practice. Your kept going sharp and flat where they weren't supposed to be. Also, you tend to staccato your voice a lot. You want to keep your pitch flowing.

    If you really want to do this, go to a trainer.

    Maybe auditioning is a bad idea. oh well, I'll play around with this a bit more. I guess it's better to embarass myself here than to embarass myself on TV. Thanks guys!

    I need you to sing Chocolate Rain and post it here. If you sing that at the audition, you will be guaranteed a spot on tv.

    I didn't get to hear the music, so I can't really comment on the overall qualityof the songs.

    But not many people here answered the question: which song was the best one.

    I mean, you can say you didn't enjoy them in general, but at least help him out and say which one had the most promise.

    Maybe the Clutch BBS can have our own online Idol competition. The contestants will be Fatty, Preston and OldManBernie.

    none of them really stood out. i admire him for having the guts to post them and accept the critique. he just doesn't have it.

    Can You Stand the Rain by New Edition

    Texas Flood by Stevie Ray Vaughan (its not "song" per say but, it would be fun to watch that)

    Fatty can actually sing really well, so I've been told by eyewitnesses.
