Thanks Muski.............but after much searching, I found the interview........not the montage I had..but the important parts are here! Claytonic....this is a funny interview, from Aug '03, that covers the basics of "The Tug" The Tug

Claytonic's innocent question about "the tug" reminded me of a great radio interview that was done up as a montage, as pictures were added. It included the female DJ asking him about the tug, the clutch and one other move, lots of great Clay laughs and the reading of a fan report/comment about Clay harboring Weapons Of Mass Seduction. It was saved on my computer for just the longest time and after a recent crash, I just now realize it is one of the many things I have yet to replace. Except I have forgotten what it is called and I don't know how to look for it. Does anyone here have a clue as to what I am talking about?

I feel like I should be singing "The Twelve Days of Christmas"! But then.........lately....it's felt a lot like Christmas! There's just been so much happy, happy, joy, joy related to Clay. *sigh* It feels good.

Whoa....it's slow downloading....but that is A-Okay with me.... At this rate it will be up on Youtube before I get it all.

Do you have the link? I can't find it. ETA: What is the 'triangle' as mentioned by Clay in this YT video? I believe it is the cities of Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, NC. Also known as the research triangle Thanks for linking the clip, I had never seen that one before. :F_05BL17blowkiss:

Yup, it's the same one I brought over about a week ago. I've been watching it move to greater prominence ever since.

Kazoo's? Did I hear you say KA-freakin-ZOO'S ! ? ! Damn. I should have collected all those kazoo's with the books in Kalamazoo..... good thing he sounds purdy...no matter what....

Screw Clay Aiken! (Line forms to the left of the SD) This is the sweetest thing I've read in a long time. *sigh* Happy Anniversary ldjy!!!!

I was at work so missed the 'covering Clay' conversation. I would love to hear him do Gene Pitney's, Half Heaven Half Heartache or Johnny Mathis's Wonderful,Wonderful. Nice to see there are other k d lang fans here! Her SNL performance of Johnny is one I always love revisiting. Oh crap...it's gone! Well...this one is very similar. LOL Dang....I wanna be a chicken lady. ETA Has anyone seen the Yahoo front page link to Idols Biggest Success Stories? Clay is listed third.

If they never do another Mariah Carey night on AI it is all right by me! While some did do mighty fine jobs...a whole show of slooooooooow songs just about did me in! Good lord that was boring! And does anyone else get squicked out by David A's speaking voice? And how come they didn't yell at him for being so frickin' predictable?! E.V.E.R.Y.B.O.D.Y. knew he would sing that song....or something as close to it as he could get. EEEEEEEE'NUFF of the inspirational songs little man. I'm ready for Carly to go home.

I hope Scarlett doesn't mind....but this was just toooooo good to leave behind!!!! Nice to know that good wenches are rewarded for all their good work...

Yay! Have fun Annabear and as usual...bring back details!

I hope that Pearrrrly doesn't mind that I share these with here, as one with no musical skills, I enjoy revisitng them every so often. Pearrrrly's take on the Top Three songs Clay did.

He was in the audience during Season 4. Once or twice. That still doesn't mean he watched it though. Time flies for us...can you imagine how it must fly for him...as busy as he is!

Awwwww, I love newbies to the fandom. It's like seeing the world through a childs eyes. *sigh* Thanks claytonic.

Ta-da! And now for an opinion the whole world could live without. MINE Song....very pretty..very touching. Love it. (I'd love to go on and one about how Clay sounded, how it must have effected him.....how it effected me! But heck....I'm lucky I figured out how to play the dang thing. Deep thoughts are for Jack Handy and serious thinkers. I don't remember ever having a deep thought, that's pretty serious. Oh but hey.....my oldest took her first steps on the green and black kitchen/dining/living room floor...does it count that I can actually remember that event?) Just a tad to long for me. (down smutters...I'm talking about the song here! But then most music I hear is 1 minute thirty seconds long.....thank you American Idol! The 2nd time I listened to it....I almost nodded off! Shame on me!) And yet I love the opening bit and I can not W.A.I.T. to hear this in concert. Now....do I really have to wait until May 6th for the rest? PS...Lotus...no one can take away any of your joy of being a Clay Aiken fan unless you let them. Hug yourself tight and let them go!

Annabear...you are easily entertained! Did ya like it? Did ya, huh?

That WAS priceless! She and her wiggly fingers. And then the raised eyebrow expressions he made at her. Funny stuff. Ya know what I have always wondered? During the Top 5 group medley.....60's music....they go out into the audience during Working My Way Back To You...Clay goes down a row a bit to his right and gives someone a hug. Who was that person?! Friend? Family? Fan? It bugs the living daylights out of me....not knowing. Screw his favorite color....I wanna know who got the hug and why!

I do believe it was. I'll have to check and see if I still have that. You know what really amazes me...is how much harder those kids....those true newbies to the business... had to work. Compared to say seasons 3, 4, 5, and 6. I mean it's not their (season 3-6) fault they all sounded horrible together...but some years...there were very few group sings. Even now, the choreography is nothing compared to what Season 2 did. And that is the only year I saw genuine concern for each other. ALL of them. Lot's of hand holding, hugs, pats on the back. They really cared about each other. I think the living together in the house helped with that. They were just really a unique bunch. Some may not impress me now....but I love looking back at who they were. Clackunlimited... Oprah on AI2

Oh duh...not needed! LOL Nevermind.... I always get a giggle out of the guys singing "I am a woman in love..." They sounded so good together.

KAndre...is this the vocal breakdown you were thinking of? This was the work of Pearrrrrrlywhites at the CB...back in fall 2003.

Anyone wanna sign a petition to get Clay played world wide.....? PETITION

Being a Clay fan is the easiest thing I have ever done. But that is because I am the house. The boards are my windows into all things Clay. I go to different windows, for different views. I try not to whine if I don't like the view out any one window...I just pull the shade and move on to another window. In a few days (or hours) I can lift the shade and find the view has changed, the clouds have lifted perhaps, maybe I'll find sunshine and flowers! Or maybe I'll have to pull the shade back down. But they are my windows. Only I can control how much I let their view effect me.
