It's About Time "Waiting All Day For Sunday Night" Becomes A Go-To Karaoke Song
I remember the first season of American Idol like it was yesterday. Little 10-year-old Jordie feeling the buzz of weekly, appointment television down in the family room every whatever night the show was on. Being terrified of Simon Cowell. Having Paula Abdul make me, just a young man at the time, feel things that I'd never felt before. Randy Jackson introducing me to calling everybody "dawg". Justin and Kelly. Kelly and Justin. It was all so enthralling.
I don't recall watching a single episode after William Hung took the world by storm with his rendition of "She Bangs". I'm pretty sure that was the first episode of season 3.
But if I were ever to get back into American Idol, this would be the way. It's crazy to me that "Waiting All Day For Sunday Night" isn't a song that we just hear on the radio on a daily basis. We get to hear it 18 times all year? That's insanity. It's a goddamn hit, and should be in our regular rotation. Karaoke night with the boys this weekend? Toss on "Waiting All Day For Sunday Night" and you'll be a hero. Props to this chick for showing us the way.
P.S. -- Yes.
