VH1 Save The Music Concert 2005 I just saw an ad for VH1's Save The Music concert which is supposed to air on April 17th with Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey, Joss Stone, John Legend, Rod Stewart and Rob Thomas of Matchbox Twenty.
I know this concert used to be the annual "Divas" concert, but I guess they are running out of "divas" to showcase. Apparently, Ashlee Simpson, Lindsay Lohan and Ciara don't quite qualify as divas, JoJo and Hilary Duff must be too young, and they don't think Tori Amos or Kate Bush are popular enough.  | |

I swear VH-1's latest TV promos have been including Donna Summer as a performer.
Ripher, DavidEye and VoicesCarry would at least be interested in that part of the show if true. tA  Tribal Disorder

I thought they're trying to save the music?
The only person in that lineup that could save the show is Rod Stewart. | |

I'd love to see him too but I doubt that he would perform the songs that I like such as: Hot Legs Do Ya Think I'm Sexy Passion You're Insane Tonight I'm Yours Infatuation Dirty Weekend Ain't Love A Bitch Gimme Wings Tonight's The Night Maggie May Young Turks Foolish Behaviour He would probably be performing his "softer" adult contemporary type late 1980s, 1990s, and present hits like "Downtown Train".

Rod is more famous for his girls here in the UK. He likes blondes apparantly? "do ya think I'm sexy" is god awful. Sorry Veinandy  | |

That's All For All We Know Don't Get Around Much Anymore Someone To Watch Over Me Our Love Is Here To Stay I Only Have Eyes For You For Sentimental Reasons What A Wonderful World Stardust Standards? Yes Dried up? Hardly. Great melodies are timeless. I rather listen to any of the above tunes over the bulk of melody-less tripe being excreted today. Now those songs in the hands of Rod Stewart is an entirely separate issue. Btw, i'm much younger than 75.

http://www.soundclick.com...rmusic.htm well, you only managed to come up with a grand total of 9 songs from 3 albums, so for now, my comment will stand he'll probably perform some dried up standard from 100 years ago that nobody under the age of 75 could give a damn about.
but then, he also might perform one of the 9 songs you listed as well "I don't need your forgiveness, cos I've been saved by Jesus, so fuck you." | |

Just watched this on VH1. So what did you people think of this? Alicia Keys had a high school orchestra backing her up on "Karma" which I thought was really cool. Mariah Carey and John Legend did a cover of Billy Preston and Syreeta's "With You I'm Born Again." I really liked the duet, but Mariah's voice was really rough in some parts. Rob Thomas did a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Voodoo Chile" with Robert Randolph. Didn't care too much for Rob Thomas' vocals, but Robert Randolph was amazing on the slide guitar.  | |

Because they should've aired it by now. But yeah....they're running out of people to have on there. You can't top the first one with Aretha. After the second or third one....they should've just stopped. If they do another one it should be Aretha, Diana, Tina and Elton (  ) all on the same bill. Last year was an abomination, so I guess that tells you somethin' there. As much as I love them, I really wouldn't wanna see Kate Bush or Tori Amos on a Divas show. Their music is just doesn't fit....it's not glamorous enough. It seems like Kate would qualify for "Diva" with her theatrics, 50 million costume changes, and lighting effects, but musically she's too obscure for the average person. And Tori's music is too intimate and emotional.

I do like Mariah's voice but I haven't been a fan of her music or image for quite some time. However, her voice didn't sound good last night at all. Was she fighting a cold or is her voice unfortunately on the decline for whatever reason...? | |

Yo Vain, You like "do ya think i'm sexy"? I love thatt song but I heard a lot of people didn't like it because it was a sell out from rock music. Do you own any of his albums? If so, which ones? | |

so what did the Donna Summers lovers think of her performance last night?? If you will, so will I | |

I loved Donna. Her voice is so great. Better with age just like Tina Turner. Joss Stone just trips me out, with her womanly voice singing about stuff I hope she hasn't experienced yet. Since she just turned 18 last week. She actually passed me on the street on or about the day of the taping, and looked at me fetchingly. I liked John Legend and his song. But his phrasing is so strange to me, like Mikaylah on American Idol. It sounds like he's saying "we're oared in airy peephole". The Rob Thomas performance was very suspicious. 4 girls dancing in the front row when the room sat on its hands? It seemed like his record company hired people to make his solo material look like a good investment. Mariah's first outing in the orange tit suit was fun. | |
