I sit around with friends now and think "imagine if we had the internet when we went to school how much easier it all would have been?"

But really I think the internet is just making kids today even dumber and lazier.

And I just used "kids today" in a sentence... I guess I'm old now.

Apparently he is German and can count to 10 in German. He doesn't speak Kiwi

This bugs me, I pride myself on being musically knowledgable but I always hated that song and associated it with Guns and Roses because I also hated them, especially November Rain.

Back in that phase, I listened to Dio, Dokken, Def Leppard, Van Halen, King Kobra, Judas Priest, Whitesnake. I still love Whitesnake

Some music that would fit that kid's style better is probably Keane.

Thoughts and prayers go out to Ronnie James and his battle with stomach cancer...

The problem is that he copied Gaga's acoustic version almost identically by listening to it hundreds of times. You'd need to hear him sing something else to see if he's any good.

So he likes the Pooosay?

If the net result of your efforts is that you get pooosay, it's tough to call it gay.

His name is Greyson Chance. He writes his own music and lyrics as well.

I like this one, about a woman dying of cancer.

...

Cause when you hear any song hundreds of times you can play and sing it that well. We await your youtube video of Don't Stop Believing.

The piano part is the same, but they sung it pretty differently I thought. Who cares if it's a Gaga song, the kid has pipes. Hopefully puberty doesn't ruin them.
