So here is a link. It's a cover of Rhianna's Umbrella song. (Thanks, Perez!) And I just have 3 things I would like to cover. (Ha! Get it...cover?) I am going to do a "sandwich" and say two bad things and one good.
No 1: She STILL STILL STILL looks like she is about to apologize for something. I've said it before, I'll say it again. Even the background on the link that I have posted she looks like she is about to say, " I am so sorry, I didn't mean to!! ". As she's introducing the song, if you watch her face as she's saying " You can't deny how melodic this song is... " she looks like she just killed a person and was apologizing to their family. Wipe that look off your pretty young face, honey!!!
And No 2. Love the hair! But most of all, I love the video to this. I think it's awesome the way they have the original version playing in the background! At one point they show their lips moving N'Sync . ..which I thought just looked really great!
No 3: I like her version of the song..until the end. She could have really made this song hers by just REALLY letting go at the end. I haven't heard a song where she let her heart and soul bare by her singing. There was just a bunch of build up and nothing really to explode to. So D- on the ending of the song. Don't hold back!
Not that I'm the greatest at, well, anything, but really. Are these things not true?

Okay. First of all, I love Mandy Moore... in every way. I think she's got a great voice, is a good actress, and is the most down-to-earth and real-looking female celebrity out there (see: Lohan, Lindsay; Spears, Britney).
Second of all, I had NEVER heard this "Umbrella" song, though I have heard a lot about Rihanna. I listened to the original and the cover, and I like both... though I agree with your assessment of the end of Ms. Moore's version.
As for the apologizing thing. I remember you saying that about her, and then reading in a magazine article that she thinks her worst trait is "apologizing constantly." So you're right on about that too.
Whew. Long comment. And for the record, I think the O's are supposed to be the hugs, because they look like arms circling someone, and the X's look like a puckered mouth. Maybe? Anyhoodle...
XO! :)
Ok since we are going with the numbers thing here I'll stick with it.
1. LOL I think its the look of constipation.

3. the words being in sync.. I think they did that on purpose...It's called a green screen and technology..wich I'm sure you knew that, and if you didn't then... [IMG]http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h204/labau12/nbc_the_more_you_know.jpg[/IMG]4.I LOVE YOU!
