the cover of frontin' was cool, but the rest is NAFF.

What is the same on this picture?? His microphone??? I don't see it!

Lennon said:

I guess The Audience wants to warn Jamie: 'don't give the microphone too much head, you might end up with an hearing-device!!!!'

abierman said:

Ahhhh that must be it! So Phil Collins did give the mike too much head??? (and Hazes did it too, )

Love Jamie Cullum.

I like the way he takes different genres and blends them together. Not always successful, but fun to listen to.

I know very little about the Jazz Genre, but I'd rather listen to Jamie's album than NEWS or Xpectation any day.

i'd rather listen to jazz than any of those 3.

You guys are crazy. "20 Something" was one of the best albums of this year. Check out the originals he wrote on the album, and his piano playing and tell me he ain't talented.

Sounds like some folks have no idea what "talent" means....

jtgillia said:

most people aren't denying that he's talented. they're saying that he's boring. he's both.

& co-sign

He may have some talent but I seriously dislike what he is doing with it... 'Wind cries Mary' is one of my all-time favourite songs, and he has absolutely raped it, turning it into something jolly and cheerful. It makes me want to puke. And I'm honestly in fear of the day that I will be forced to hear his cover of Jeff Buckley's 'Lover you should have come over'. I pray I will be spared.

Notice I haven't been back to this thread since. Even the mere mention of him sends me into a deep slumber.

theAudience said:

Please, don't "mention" Peter Gabriel on the same page with that kid...

I agree with you on this one!! Jamie Cullem is just a great new very talented artist!

YOU HAVE SEEN THE TONGUE!

I knew this would come.....yep, I watch RTL Boulevard as well..

Again, I'm saying- listen to his original songs on the album. They are very creative, especially harmonically speaking. Not boring in the least.

Yeah, the cover of Wind Cries Mary was a little weak, I agree with that.

And he definitely reminds of Billy Joel, from his piano playing, and certainly his singing voice.

*totally lost!?!*

bananacologne said:

don't worry, you've spared.....there was a segment on Jamie on the telly tonight, on the Dutch 'Entertainment Tonight'. Jamie showed off his tongue, which turns out to be huge, you know, something Jewish people could have for dinner at Shabbas on friday-night.....

bananacologne said:

Did Aksel tell you it was HUGE?

Lucky girlfriend.

GooeyTheHamster said:

sort of.....(it really is....it looked bigger than Gene Simmons')

I LOVE JAMIE CULLUM NOW

what is it with gay men???? I will never get it!

jtgillia said:

you're onto something there. perhaps that's why i don't like him. was never a Billy Joel fan. i liken Rufus Wainwright to something of a 21st century Elton John, and i love both of them. if Jamie Cullum is the 21st century Billy Joel, perhaps that's why he turns me off.

abierman said:

Hun, yer my mate, but lemme just say; THANK GOD!

LoL

You should be able to spot a guy person's weak spots; like making corny remarks. To be honest, to me the boy is as unattractive as a hobbit.

GooeyTheHamster said:

I know my friend.....it was just a tongue!

abierman said:

You're right...u won't!
