I'll always remember when I saw her at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds a few years ago. It was her, Al Green and B.B. King.
Definitely one of the best gigs I've been to in a long while

Lou went in 6 days in 2006, so he'll now see us when we get there.

At 14 she was old before her time and now that her time has come, I hope she has a penny for the ferryman to see her across the blue divide.

Are you aware that several people on your list are allready dead?

You can always check out these versions of "At Last" on Billboard's website.
The last version is done by some chap called Low Rawls.
Would have thought the people at Billboard would have taken consideration to spell performers' names correctly

It's either blood or liquid shit. She'll probably say it was spray-tan or something though.

What's more disgusting: The unfortunate image of Aguilera, or the fact that people have felt the need to publish it?
It's something I could've lived with out seeing or knowing.
