Dude spits it straight Fresh Prince style…actually impressed by the audience participation. Would love to see a white flight attendant do the announcement in the form of a “Power Ballad.” Don’t know what a power ballad is?
Hilarious Idolator article on power ballads can be seen HERE
Power ballads aren’t music. They’re television. They’re soap operas. They’re ham acting in ridiculous outfits on cheap sets, reciting lousy dialogue, and getting to us thanks to shameless stroking of basic-unto-atavistic impulses many people are convinced, at some point in their life, that only they have. And as a result, the people who make them, who never came alive on music journalism’s pages, do so much better on TV. The Journey episode of VH1’s Behind the Music? Total classic. And the Time-Life infomercial is even better.
