Jets With The Assist.

Adele is an amazing singer. The problem is, when one of her songs comes on, everyone else thinks they are, too.

Not me. I’m a drummer, not a singer. But I had to sing for a commercial audition yesterday.

My plan was to offset my lousy singing voice with pure commitment. Also on my side: the commercial’s song had a Christmas-carol feel to it, and because I’d been yelling the day before while watching the Jets, my voice had some unusually good timbre. It gave me a bit of a Perry Como, Bing Crosby crooner sound. Lousy style.

I gave it may all. It’s all I could do.

One last thing: I think we should hear Adele’s boyfriend’s songs before we pick sides.
