scarcrest passed this along. Someone on his list posted it in her journal. However, here's the original article from the Guardian.
There is some good snark in here.reannon busted the author on a factual error in his write up on "My Immortal" by Evanescence. But I think his critique of Celine Dion's cover of "All By Myself" is perfect:
20. All By Myself Celine Dion (1996)
The Canadian superstar's bombastic cover of Eric Carmen's 1970s hit about loneliness is the audio equivalent of the fire-bombing of Dresden. Celine's vocal histrionics surpass the blood-soaked psychic fury which slaughters the prom-goers in the movie Carrie. Had Ms Dion been around during D-Day, the Allies could have dropped her off at Omaha Beach with a PA system and have her sing All By Myself until the German infantry bayoneted themselves.
*wipes a tear* It almost makes me wish for another D-Day. My, I'm bitchy this morning.
