♫Absolute Worst & Best of the Best♫

Someone somewhere is always trying to outdo or outperform someone else. This is especially true in Hollywood and of course, within the music industry. Whether live on stage or on video, often the showmanship outshines the melody, which unfortunately too many times isn't even audible. What a shame when it should always be about the music. Let's step back in time today with a glimpse of the best of the best but not without first checking out the worst!
