My Favorite New Song
The guy singing with Willie Nelson is amazing. He won the Norwegian version of American Idol in 2003. Simon Cowell said he would be hard to market because he looks like a Hobbit, but has a great voice.
"Simon Cowell said he would be hard to market because he looks like a Hobbit," and Simon was wrong because...? Sure the voice is fine even with that fake American accent but the business is never about talent, it's about what can sell.
It's a shame that fame and selling records isn't based solely on talent. That Simon sure is mean, but.....if that role in The Hobbit becomes available, dude would be a shoo-in.
Maybe he could go on Broadway as a singing Hobbit?!?
