I listened to Eminem's latest album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Gr?ce) this morning and was impressed by his formidable rapping skills, social commentary, and the range of music he sampled.

Even without the knowledge that Celine Dion is suffering from a rare neurological disease that is making her muscles and tendons increasingly rigid, I'd have been very impressed with performance.

The fact she is able to sing at all, never mind with so much power and range, is a testament to her talent and determination.

It was there yesterday and now it's disappeared. I tried to upload one and it was taken down immediately because of a copyright infringement.

This has all the audio, which conveys the power of her performance.

Squeeze, went to see them last night, they put on one hell of a performance, despite a lot of bands getting rave reviews these know how to crank it up one and get the crowd going without even trying, pure entertainers.
