From bridgeymahTIme of my weekly addition to the growing plethora of artists populating this thread. Time for someone who like Adam rose up via a TV show, but in this case was when she was much younger. The show was called Young Talent Time and was a "mickey mouse" style variety show staring talented kids. Tina Arena. She had a couple of very successful albums here in Australia after she left the show and later moved to France where she has lived ever since and had a huge career. She has a lovely voice (would be a great match for Adam). www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZlIOJzsVsE&feature=relatedand doing a duet on Rockwiz show of Kate Bush Don't Give Up - just gorgeous: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gx9kC4-UbkIand for grins as a 10 year old on the TV show that made her famous here in Oz (yep it was cheezy as all get out): www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_nE9gD7xOA&feature=related

Neil Diamond's performance of Pretty Amazing Grace showed them all how it's done. I forgot about the song and album. Now added to my itunes wish list. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kkxj9ZtYII

From sugareeThere will never ever be anyone like Nat King Cole. Growing up, my aunt played his albums over and over and I'm a huge fan. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaYLWSo4fYMA long time ago, I was scouring through Nat videos and came across this gem. Billy Preston, at the age of 11 with Nat. Gee, ya think Billy had a destiny? www.youtube.com/watch?v=1loV9_xLF8Q

From bridgeymahWas telling my husband about this thread this morning and he suggested his favorite song from the Australian band - The Drones - so here it is. They are a very alternative indie rock band with somewhat a cult following. Hope you enjoy - www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvFKQrlaIfg&feature=email

From sugareeHoly crap - I did not know this about Alison. "Alison Krauss has won a record twenty-seven Grammy Awards[46] over the course of her career as a solo artist, as a group with Union Station, as a duet with Robert Plant, and as a record producer. This is more than any other female artist and is the third most won by any artist overall." Alison (surprise surprise), I've always been a country fan - yep, love the twang too. Since we're talking about angelic voices, I get chills when I hear Emmylou Harris sing this song (and many others). I hope I get to see her live someday. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTry1yKvxZM

From MikaHad a Pearl Jam morning and thought of this blast from past. Oh beautiful baby Eddie Vedder - he owned my heart. Chris Cornell tells a great story of how Eddie became involved. There was no Pearl Jam yet but Eddie (just in from San Diego) was waiting in the studio to work with Stone Gossard and rest of band that would ult. become PJ. He was listening to Chris trying to sing this but Chris couldn't nail all the notes and was getting frustrated so shy, unknown Eddie stepped up and offered to help. HUNGERSTRIKE - TEMPLE OF THE DOGwww.youtube.com/watch?v=i0-hAo-XlVU&feature=relatedAnd how the hell did I not know this vid was out there?!!! This is beautiful and genuinely epic. BRIDGEYMAH - were you there? Pearl Jam + U2 = UJAM and ROCKIN IN THE FREE WORLD (Eddie and Bono <3)www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SCt1mNbE2o&feature=related
