Listen, before I get too far into this post I want to share with you that I happen to like Barry Manilow, and can’t resist singing along to some of his internationally-known hits when I’m in that Lite FM kind of mood. There, the cat’s out of the bag, let’s continue…
It was reported this week that a clever judge in the great state of Colorado “sentenced” some noise violators to listening to an entire hour of Barry Manilow songs. I see that he was going for cliche, and he did quite nicely, but seriously, there are way worse/more-painful-to-listen-to “musical artists” out there than Manilow. Paris Hilton comes to mind, so does: Michael Bolton, Color Me Badd, Crash Test Dummies and Blind Melon, just to name a select few.
I will give Judge Sacco some credit, though, as he lists Barney as one of his punishment options….but I still think Paris is worse. And a heck of a lot more annoying. You be the judge…
BARNEY V. PARIS
