This hits close to home, because I've always wanted to sing. Of course, I'd rather have my own backups, but if I have to sing backup, anybody would be fine, as long as I like the music. (I have always envied backup singers, getting to be on stage with awesome performers. I always wonder if they talk to the performer a lot, know the performer well, joke around with the performer during rehearsals and before the show,,,)

Soda---Always loved Where The Streets Have No Name and thought it would of been cool to have been there.
Koala--Land Of Confusion is such a well thought out video. The puppets of Nancy & Ronald just cracked me up.
