Randy jackson has appeared on bucket loads of songs. Playing bass and sometimes co-writing them. i ain't sure exactly what he has done, but he co-wrote New kids on the blocks flop single "dirty dawg"?

I think he is on eddie Murphies "so happy" album? Or is that the Michael Jacksons brother?

There aren't any Paula Abdul songs in their karaoke binder.

Yeah good point. Imagine simons face when he hears it. Paula would be loving it and she'll look at Simon and he's have his hands over his ears or something and Paula would go off on one.....that would be funny.

Paula's most "vocal" song was the gorgeous "blowing kisses in the wind", a soulful track that I'm surprised hasn't been covered yet.

I think Simon would walk out if anyone sang the rap part to "opposites attract" biggrin

I've seen a few videos of Randy playing bass with Journey back in the day - he was very heavy, sported a mohawkish hairdon't and sported black spandex.

It was NOT a good look for him...

Well because a lot of the contestants will show up Paula Abdul and do the song better than her.
