Puddle of PM Dawn



I take it back, all of it. In an earlier post regarding "Hit Me Baby One More Time," I said the show's stars of yesteryear should never attempt artistic interpretations of the hits of today. My comments were the product of my residual anger toward Rex Smith and Marilyn McCoo who used to maim the cherished songs of my childhood on Solid Gold. Not to mention, every artist who attempted it on HMBOMT thus far stank up the stage. And then PM Dawn covered Puddle of Mudd, accomplishing what no one else on the show could. They took a risk, made a complete departure from their musical genre, and created something beautiful.
