Apparently, EW.com now has a Department of Karaoke, and Slezak is its secretary. Last week, he forwarded me an email announcing that Alanis Morissette is holding a contest on MySpace Karaoke (now through July 13). You press "record" and perform one of four tracks from her new album Flavors of Entanglement (read EW’s B+ review here), then enter to win tickets to an Alanis concert and an autographed microphone. Alanis herself will pick the winner. Funny? Sad? Or Funny-sad? I can’t decide.
BUT, when I went to MySpace Karaoke for "research," I poked around and stumbled onto Mychael With a Y!!’s awesomely bad rendition of Aerosmith’s "I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing" (pictured). You’ll want to click this link, and stick it out until 1:07. You will not be sorry. I had to call people into my office to listen to it. It was that "good."

SUCKS TO BE FRENCH!
Wow, listening to some of these is better than hearing the bad Idol auditions.
Also, note to self: “Apologize” is harder to sing than first thought.
Thank you, EW.com, for once again giving me something really cool with which to waste my time (and I still haven’t gotten through all the Rock-afire Explosion YouTube clips!). I must try this tonight.
This guy is freaking awesome! I love his opening…”Have you ever seen the movie “Armageddon”….” hahahah
Mandi how much “research” did you have to do to find Mychael with a Y!!? He’s a gem; I’m sending that link to all my friends. He sounds like Cher plus a meowing cat plus Goat Boy.
Oh my god, thank you for putting that link on here. I think the best part may be when he starts cracking up about half way through.
That just made my day- hilarious!
meowwwwww!
