The worst cover of a Who song in history. Talk about a wasteland.
What is this? Is this a TV show? Who (in their right mind) would watch KARAOKE on TV? Is this really the kind of thing people watch on television these days? Whatever happened to writers, actors, storytelling, substance, depth, etc ??
LOL! What a loser! What did it was not his antics but the fact he butchered a rock classic.
That's silly. People said the same thing when The Monkey's had hits. It will take more than cynical marketing schemes to kill rock and roll. Neil Young was right.
He should never be able to sing, play music or anything else ever again. Pete Townshend should be allowed to hit Ryan Star in the face with his guitar, for his desecration of "Baba O'Riley".
...and I know who won. The album has been recorded. The band knew before the show started who they wanted. This is, alas, all just for show. The voting results are the result of the audience, not frantic clicking on that awful website that clogs up even my high speed internet.
The only sex tape that might come out of this will be in the gay section; personally, I think it would add to Tommy's enigma.
This show is preordanined to end with some fake rocker chick banging Tommy Lee on the internet. She will 'record' exactly one tune with these geezer washups and the either disappear into reality TV or become a soiled version of Paris Hilton for 15 minutes. Everyone knows that. Maybe they can all get new tats on "Inked" just in case anyone thinks this isn't whored out stupid white trash enough.
Thank you so very much of that awesome footage of Ryan Star doing (murdering, desecrating, eviscerating) Teeange Wasteland. That no-talent ass clown uses shouts and bluster to deliver a song and in the process makes David Lee Roth look like Janis Ian.

PS The band did their fair share to make the song sound like shit too.
