[Krom]

Thanks, Jermaine. I needed a nap.

[KofferMum]

Do not think that Jermaine can sing at all....He loveth himself enough for all of us.

[AsIs]

Better than last week! Drink!

[WinkyD]

I liked this song!

[SanJoseMom]

I think these kids try too hard to pick some song that they can change up and garner tons of attention (like a few notables in the past). I'm beginning to wonder how many of them really have the talent to just pick a decent song and then sing it really, really well. Is that asking so much?

Jermaine: I'm not feeling him.

[I'm MEL]

Jermaine, no.

I like Jermaine's personality, and I like his voice (okay), but not this jazz-lite arrangement of this song (yuck!).

And he's looking a little PeeWee Herman tonight.

[SanJoseMom]

Is it 90 min or 2 hours tonight?

[TeacherLady]

Jermaine, no.

I like Jermaine's personality, and I like his voice (okay), but not this jazz-lite arrangement of this song (yuck!).

And he's looking a little PeeWee Herman tonight.

Oh, my gosh! Yeah! That's exactly right!

Simon is right. Jermaine is totally disconnected with the meaning of the song. "What's Going On?" was an anti-war/social-consciousness song. These kids need to take the lyrics seriously and change the arrangement based on the emotional impact of the song, not just based on vocal tricks.
