And I hate it. I absolutely totally hate it. When they sing a song in this fashion I cringe, and I wonder WHAT makes them think this is the right way to sing! A song has a melody for a reason, and it's not to mangle it.

I could not agree more! I can't stand it when someone sings tons of extra notes. I just want to scream SING THE BLODDY TUNE

Thank you I feel so much better now
