As I type this, the remake of We Are The World is playing in another window. I cannot deal with this tom foolery. Absolutely not. As my dear friend Candy G. would say, " HELL to the NO NO!!!!"
You don't have Justin Beiber start it off. Dude can sing, but come on, that's not what it is. It's a good look for Justin, though. The different voices singing together is supposed to have contrast. It's not supposed to sound like they're fighting to be heard over each other. And who thought it was cool for Enrique Iglesias' wimpy ass to whine after Miley Cyrus sang? Speaking of Miley, this is the best we've ever heard her sound. Wyclef is a damn fool. Homie, you were asked to sing, not scream like a wild banshee. I can no longer tolerate your lack of actual vocal talent. Why wasn't auto-tune used on him too? Weezy, T-Pain, and Akon sounded great with it.
On a better note, Toni Braxton and the guy from The Fray sound amazing together. Celine Dion did a great Cyndi Lauper impersonation. If you don't know what I'm talking about, check the original. Adam Levine has more soul than some of the soul singers on this joint. I was almost waiting for Kanye to stop the song and kick the illest verse about himself helping Haiti. But that's just me. The chick from Sugarland is great. J-Hud is J-Hud, so you already know. Her and the Pussycat Doll were harmonizing really well.
A note to Quincy Jones and Lionel Richie, I know you were doing this for Haiti, but you two both know you aren't proud of this version. Being that you are legends, we'll let you slide this once. DON'T DO THIS EVER AGAIN OR I MIGHT HAVE TO DELETE MYSELF AS A FAN OF YOUR WORK!!!!!!!!!!!
