It takes some serious effort to find pathos in a green frog puppet, but somehow the brain trust behind Sad Kermit has done it again. (You might remember Sad Kermit's Johnny Cash-esque take on the Nine Inch Nails classic "Hurt", a Net sensation from a few months ago).
In honour of Neil Diamond's recently announced stop in Vancouver (September 20 at GM Place), fans may want to revisit this great moment of entertainment history:
It's a Tom Waits song with David Bowie on backing vocals. How could it go wrong? It doesn't, really, but it's fair to say that ScarJo's singing career is unlikely to overshadow her Hollywood acting gig.
There are some things that are legendary for their awfulness, and this song is definitely one of them. Oddly enough, however, despite having heard about it for most of my life, I had never actually heard the song until today.
