I think I've said on here before that I'm a big fan of David Phelps. I'm a very "serious" fan; that means I don't want people to sing his music unless they can actually do it justice. Very few can.
So keeping that in mind...
Apparently he is going to be in concert around here somewhere relatively soon. The radio station I listen to was giving away tickets to the concert to whatever number caller was the lucky one...IF he or she would sing a David Phelps high note. The station played several examples of David belting out the high note as ONLY David can belt it.
So I listened, wincing before the caller even took a big breath and tried to imitate David. The first person was a woman, and her high note was nothing more than a scream that said "I just saw a mouse!"
The second person was a guy and he was a little funnier. His was an attempted sing, though definitely NOT David.
I understand that it was all in good fun, so I bear no ill will against these David wannabes. But still - leave the high notes to the expert.

Did they ever find a winner?
Well the person who got through on the phone was the "winner." Singing the "high note" was just the formality. And what a formality it was. LOL. Even though I cringed over it, it was kind of fun. The next announcer that came on for the following shift just gave them to the callers without requiring a high note. That wasn't nearly as much fun.
I'm also going to fix my grammatical error I just saw. OUCH!
