There you go.
Told you I would resume this listing. Once I get caught up, I'll also put the songs in their order in the beginning of the final database.
"There You Go" is also the name of the first song I heard Nov. 7. It was by Pink in 2000, and it's score is 4,450.
Beyonce, "Irreplaceable" from 2006. Very replaceable, very pedestrian musically. 4,820. I think Beyonce is one of the 21st-century female soloists who is nowhere near as strong as the female soloists coming up in the '80s and '90s.
For that matter, the male soloists aren't very strong either. I just heard Enrique Iglesias, "Being with You," I think that's '06. I think I also heard it a couple of nights ago, and I'm pretty sure it was in the mid-4,000s, between 4,400 and 4,600. That may be generous.
I'm not sure if "American Idol" has lowered the bar for what's considered good or what the deal is.
The Killers, "Somebody Told Me" from 2004. 3,800. Kind of reminds me a little of the Jonas Brothers. Kind of from the same era, a little earlier.
K.T. Tunstall, "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree," '06. I would have called it "Whoo-hoo." I like the guitar work on this one, 3,750.
Britney Spears, "Lucky" from 2000. She seemed to be singing in a baby voice, sounded younger than she did when she was 15. 4,600.
Smash Mouth, with a 2001 remake of "I'm a Believer." It's a little more up tempo than The Monkees' version, but it doesn't really add a lot musically. It does bring back some '60s organ. 4,100.
Alicia Keys, "If I Ain't Got You" from 2004. It's kind of a love song. It's not one of her best, but she surely can sing. 4,275.
My phone battery is dying and I have to get on the road soon. So I'll cut off this voice message #047 at 2:26 and pick it up later.
