Considering he was a last minute replacement, he did very well. Particually against someone as formidable as Patti Labelle. Michael brought it. Patti ate him up. | |

You know Michael did good you just scared to admit it The duet they did though ("we're not making love anymore") was pretty bad. Barbra's version was much better. | |

Timmy84 said: Lemme just say this, Michael Bolton tried so hard to be "down with the brothers" after his failed attempt to be a metal singer. I guess he figured since he had women screaming over his pseudo-R&B material that he could actually take music that the Isleys did conceive. No matter what portion of it, what I do think is Bolton GOT what he deserved trying to get the Isleys' catalog after they beat him in court for stealing parts of their song. In my opinion, I don't think Michael and his co-writer got disrespected. Compared to the other so-called "blue-eyed soul" men like Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald, George Michael and the like, he was the only one who fake the funk.
Just my opinion. Co-Sign | |

Sure he changed his game up after the flop rock album, but lots of artists change directions or try new producers/songwriters to get hits. Look at Madonna and Nelly Furtado for recent examples. Doesn't mean the music isn't still enjoyable though. Changing to pop/MOR is not exactly trying to be black is it LOL. Bolton just found a formula and ran with it. It was gradual aswell, as he didn't suddenly become MOR, it took a few albums LOL. | |
