Today's Gossip

By Tanya

Ok, not today's, but...

Apparently [Simon Cowell] the recording industry mogul is so sick of hearing particular songs sung over and over again by American Idol contestants that he has taken steps to get them banned...

He said: "We've banned certain songs. Falling, Alicia Keys. I never want to hear that song again in my life. I cannot stand it. I'm allergic to it. And I Believe I Can Fly, R Kelly."

Ha! What songs would you ban? Let's hear it.

I'll start with any post-1980 Michael Jackson. Especially if it involves a glove or moonwalking.

Any previous Idol-Produced song.

I would *so* ban that "I Believe I Can Fly" song. And that Josh Groban song, "Higher" or something...the one sounds like "Danny Boy."

I agree with the Josh Groban song, whatever it is. I almost said that, but I figured I was just being anti-country.

The Wind Beneath My Wings - I'd ban that one too.

You beat me to it Denise.

That's ok, Tim, we can ban it twice. :)

Any Celine Dion song.

Ok, "Lady" by Kenny Rogers.

Heh, I actually still have the sheet music for that song.

"You Raise Me Up" is that Josh Groban song we need to ban.
