    I'm split on it. I get him but Kenny G still made some good songs:

    <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/OOO4ROO_sPM?feature=player_detailpage" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

    This one is my favorite.

    That said, I couldn't listen to Kenny G's style of jazz for mor ethan 30 minutes without lyrics. That's why smooth jazz vocals are my favorite type of music, especially since I grew up on R&B. I love this one:

    And this one:

    The ****ed up thing about that is it's not even Kenny G playing. That's Lenny Pickett, the guy from Saturday Night Live and Tower of Power. They just used Kenny in the video because he's more recognizable. Personally, I think it's messed up that Kenny would go along with it and mime somebody elses solo in the video. The other ****ed up thing is that they slapped auto-tune on it when it's completely unnecessary.

    not the ''best" but absolutely my favorite. actual solo starts ~4:30, but worth watching the beginning of the clip.

    Mark Knopfler wrote the music, and I believe David Sanborn is the soloist.

    Thats totally cool. Im not really a fan of Kenny, and I have various reasons behind that, but the great thing about art is that its subjective and I respect your opinion. Didn't mean that video as an insult to your taste, just always thought it was a funny video.:)
