Last week, Dolly Parton got the COVID-19 vaccine and reworked her song Jolene in honor of it. She wants other people to get her vaccine or one of the other ones, so she figured it would inspire them.
Today, Carole King finally got her shot, and she reworked her song It’s Too Late for the occasion.
Maybe they can take their act on the road? However, we won’t be able to see them in person until everyone, who can get the vaccine, gets it. So get the shot, shot, shot, shot, shot!
The casts of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical from all over the world got together online and sang her iconic song You’ve Got a Friend. Over 80 people harmonized as one, and they created a song that feels like a hug.
Whenever you need something to brighten up even your darkest night, just play this song. You will know that you have a friend out there to get you through troubled times.
Next week the final 6 contestants of American Idol are going to sing the songs of Carole King and I want to know who she f*cked to get a theme week on the show. I mean how else would she have gotten it? Seriously I need an explanation because there are so many other artists I can think of before her for getting a theme week on the #1 show in America.
I would love to have been in the room when they told contestants whose repertoire of music they were going to choose from because if they are like me, they are like I heard the name, but what the f*ck does she sing? I even went to Wikipedia and looked at her discography and was like I know maybe 3 of the songs. I feel bad for the contestants because they are told to be current and they are given a singer whose music started to come out before their parents were born. Isn’t bad enough that they have had to suffer through Steven Tyler’s Creepy Leers of the Night?
Seriously what were the producers of the show thinking when they picked her name out of hat? I mean the ratings have been slipping every week, do they want to go down faster than I am assuming Pia Toscano did on Dancing with the Stars’ Mark Ballas. (I am not saying she did, I just needed a reference and that one worked…)
Now back to Carole King, I am not dismissing her extraordinary career, it is just that I don’t think she is good fit for American Idol. What do you think of her music as a theme week on the singing competition?
