Did you see where Regis Philbin has a Christmas album?! For the love of all things good and melodic, what is going on. I had the misfortune of seeing him perform (using this term very losely) at the Rockefeller Tree Lighting and it was more spoken word than actual singing. Not surprising about Regis, he's determined to spend the twilight of his career with his face plastered on everything that will hold still. How he became such a "personality" I just cannot understand. Why are people across America so commited to sharing their mornings with a face-lifted name-dropper who considers his tennis matches worthy of national mention. And now with the holiday album, I mean seriously; it took long enough to get Kathy Lee's cruise ship talent off the airwaves and now Regis is springing up to fill the void (as if there were one) in the medicore wedding singer talent arena.

My basic principle on performers is that just because you can stay is tune doesn't mean you need to cut an album. Karaoke was made for folks like you - any questions on that subject, please read on....
