I really liked Lennox's "I Put a Spell on You" until I heard the version by Silencio that she seems to be most closely aping, and it blew her out of the water.

I'm so old I used to listen to the original by Screamin Jay Hawkins on the radio, and got very frightened, so I'd change the station quickly.

 

I haven't heard Silence, but Annie's rendition wasn't scary, I liked it.

Don't know one Taylor Swift song but she is hot, nobody has mentioned that yet.

No one's mentioned it because no one else here is a creepy old man.

Really?  I'm the only creepy old man.

Yes

I resemble that remark.

Sorry, if you're laughing at me, I'm withya.

Do you think FEMINIST!!! Taylor will ever do a benefit performance for Planned Parenthood?

Once somebody like Lena Dunham tells her too, I'm sure.

If she's okay in Phoebe's book, she can't be all bad, right?

Who do I talk to about my issues with Taylor's outfit? I mean if you're going to wear a garter belt UNDER a pair of white shorts, why bother. Madonna must have been horrified.

Taylor looks just as self conscious as Madonna tho.

 

Taylor can do whatever she wants with Phoebe but she better stay the fudge away from Valerie Cherish.

I am still stuck in the 80's in terms of music taste. I met Taylor at a press conference two years ago. She is very intelligent. A great speaker and after I listened to her music I became a fan. I admire her! And I love her music. 

She is talented and very nice.

Did she hand you money? I hear she's generous with fans.

I met her at a press conference. No money but videotaping her gave me a ton of traffic. Watch the press conference on Broadwayshowbiz.com.

I love the verite feel and the way it keeps the audience just a little off balance.

What was The Giver, exactly?  Was it like a telethon?

A MOVIE.

I remember nothing about that!  Was it a direct to video release?

Maybe you're familiar with its better known sequel... TAKEN.

You mean Toucan?

I went to IMDB and looked up The Giver.  Taylor Swift plays "Rosemary," which seems perfect.

Bringing this back to Miley Cyrus, I find her covers of old songs compelling evidence of her underlying talent.

 

Like this lesbian-infused version of Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover":

I think Cyrus is absolutely coming into her own. She has a natural, raw talent that is growing on me. I love her cover of Jolene.
