Or something like that. :)

Male voice. Sounds eerily familiar but I can't place it.

I heard it the other day on the Muzac at the mall, and I can't figure
out who it was.

Anyone know ?

Thanks in advance for any help.

How about Alan Jackson singing "All I Want For Christmas Dear Is You". It's
originally by Buck Owens and it has a line in it that goes "Here it is
Christmas Day and you're many miles away and I wonder if you feel the way I
do".

Sorry! Of course, I meant Travis Tritt singing "All I Want For Christmas
Dear Is You".
I had Alan Jackson on the brain! His song was "I only Want You For
Christmas". Geez, that's my second mistake this year! Sure glad the year's
almost over!!! LOL

Besides there's only room for one perfect person around here,
anyway. : )

Secondly, thank God Christmas comes once a year, because I get to
visit the malls again. : ) Anyhow, I heard the song again, and it said
Merry Christmas I'm a million miles away or something like that so I
googled with Merry Christmas in front and I finally got some info on
Chris Isaak, who I assume is the singer.

Have no idea who he is, because obviously my musical taste is very one
dimensional, but I have heard the name .

The song caught my ear, because unlike every other song I hear, it
actually conveyed some sadness . : )

In today's country musical landscape, probably much like the society
we live in, we are not allowed anymore to "feel" sadness, or much of
anything. I'm beginning to believe I'm surrounded by zombies. Seems
everyone's got a pill to even them out, and the music, to me, sort of
reflects that.

Thank God I'm here to slap everyone out of their lethargic stupor
periodically. : )

Just another example of my never ending selflessness and devotion to
improving mankind, and the lives of my subjects one post at a
time. : )

Remember, if the "big guy" does exist, I have to humbly take a back
seat to his greatness, so I hearby decree the following day Dec.
26th, from now on will be Kingmas Day . : )

Merry Kingsmas to ALL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : )

Chris Isaak is a Roy Orbison style singe with a much greater range.

Gas or electric ? If you're into fine cuisine like myself, : ) you've
gotta have a gas range. You just can't get the "heat" you need from an
electric. : )

I'm not really bragging, because I think most people already know
this, BUT ... it IS a fact, that I was originally the template for
Emeril's huge success. I was hired to host a cooking show, and Emeril
was actually my assistant. However, apparently it was a problem for
the network whenever I added my spices and seasonings I would always
exclaim " FUC*IN A" !!!!!!!!! One day when I called in sick, Emeril
complained about my profanity , had the nerve to use MY VERY OWN
RECIPE behind my back, and yelled the politically correct "BAM" every
time he added his seasonings and spices, and as they say, the rest is
history. Where's Johnny Cochran when you really need him ? : )
LOL !!!!!!!

Seriously, I know we've been down this road before, but honestly,
range just doesn't matter. I used to hear all those platitudes and
even platapusses : ) about Raoul Malo and all I can say is "NAME ONE
OF HIS SONGS " . : )

The ONLY people who think range/voice is that big of a deal are failed
singers. Having said that, I'm actually pretty surprised Isaak has the
range you say, because if I remember correctly the song was quite
understated, and USUALLY people like that do the "Johnny Bush/Martina
McBride" "Star Search" semi-final "listen to this" , every time they
sing.
