You should buy this CD. Not only does it benefit The Wildlife Waystation--surely a worthy cause --but it gives super-celebrities like the grumpy Russel Crowe, the eccentric Juliette Lewis and the not-so-talented Bruce Willis even more chances to bother us.

Don't think Crowe deserved the Best Actor Oscar? Maybe, maybe not. But he, and the other offerings on this sacrifice to the celebrity worship gods, certainly don't deserve Grammys.

The music isn't even that bad--certainly no worse than most popular crap. But the novelty of knowing that famous, attractive, wealthy overachievers like Crowe, Brad Pitt and Johnny Depp can't sing offers more enjoyment than the tracks themselves. It's nice to know they're not perfect in every way.

#1 - Just a note,
Johnny Depp has never really been known for being a singer. He IS known for his acting and in some circles he is recognized as an awesome guitarist.
Thanks for my moment.
