    Great Song, Great Voice!!!!

    Mellencamp & Etheridge sounded a little shaky but in all the show itself was really good.

    The Mel Brooks stuff was worth the watch by itself!!!!

    ed could make an easy gold record if he just made an album covering bruce. i'd get it and i don't even listen to bruce.(not cause i don't like him just never gave an effort)

    I agree. I found the whole show to be pretty entertaining.

    Also, I know the show was to honor other artists, but I want to congradulate Ed on being invited to play and participate. That is an honor he should be proud of, and it doesn't hurt that he didn't disapoint.
    words seem so out of place.

    I'm not sure what to get from that expression. Kinda looks like a "Holy crap that was awesome" expression. :D

    yea, it was definitely chopped up for tv. maybe the whole song will show up on cbs' website at some point.. although i doubt it.

    they should have just axed mellencamp's abomination to make more time..
    i'm more a fan of popular bands.. like the bee-gees, pearl jam

    Holy smokes he flipping killed that. I have to say that is probably one of the best performances I've ever seen him give.
