It Burns, Burns, Burns

I'm not a huge American Idol fan. In fact, I really only tune into the first several auditions to see all the freaks trying out for it, but I can't get into the pre-molded mass-produced insta-pop stars that the show creates. I did, however, happen to hear this season's runner-up, Adam Lambert, put a really middle-eastern, sexy spin on the Johnny Cash classic "Ring of Fire". Check it out on YouTube. Hell, I may even have to put it on my iPod. It's sultry and steamy. Johnny Cash never felt so dirty. Anyway, in homage to the man, here's the original version performed in 1968. I love the "look" of old variety shows from the 60s.

Aren't I glamorous?
