Gorgeous rendition of Two out of Three ain't Bad.
I love it. The guy's got a perfect voice.

No, no, just, no
I know Jim had the Eagles in mind when he wrote the song, but it's a bloody good job it didn't turn out like this. The speed of the song has no coherance and his voice (nice as it may be in small doses) is fecking boring after a verse or two. Sorry, it's a miss from me |

Personally don't like it all. To slow, and his voice is just so droll, and the way he sings it just doesn't match well with music. Some songs just shouldn't be redone.

My best friend and I came up with a similar arrangement to this. It came out real good and i need to find the VHS somewhere.
Brought back memories of 9h grade. Just me on voice and him on guitar. Jamey sounds excellent and it gave the song a more country home bound. Will say though his physical performance was like watching paint dry... |

He does have a voice, but I agree with those saying the pace is very slow. One of those songs that having heard Meat deliver it and make it his own .. this just fades into insignificance for me I'm afraid.

Don't be, a good song done a different way, I actually liked it, great voice and a good arrangement, I'll be looking at what else he's done.
No you don't |

I have this image of Wario spending two hours hunting for his tape, only for it to finally dawn on him that he no longer has a VCR!

Proceeds of the record go to the "Imus Cattle Ranch for Kids with Cancer".
I hope the album does well, because the profits are going to a very good cause. As for the song itself; it's not a bad version of "Two out of Three". He has a great country voice, but it's much to slow, and you just can't do this song without the piano. |

My apologies, your post led me to think that there would be another thread with a video of you in it if you found it, I jumped to a conclusion that was obviously wrong.

Gosh that was uninspiring. I kept waiting for the wow....and he could have done so much more with his delivery. His voice is good, but it bored me. Sorry m8.

I live just a few miles from Country Music Highway and have heard some amazing random country versions of Two out of Three - this one ain't a-workin'! It is every bit as boring and tired as Don Imus himself. Give me the fun energy of Bonnie Tyler's version anyday over this tired working of the song. The reason is drags so much is so Don Imus has time to wrap his slow working brain around what he is listening to. If he really wanted to do good for his charity, maybe he would shut his face and stop trying to be a "shock jock" because Don Imus is no Howard Stern and things like his "nappy headed hoes" comment do not come off pretty coming from his mouth.

I personally don't like this guys version but then I'm not keen on the sourthern drawl in country music. Props to him for taking on such a huge song though.
