The Simpsons A Cappella

adamr, it's a group of a capella singers. That's like the bagpipes of the singing world. It's almost barbershop. Annoying is what they do.

Hey Ted -

I like your thought about the show - I just wish the singers had achieved what you hoped without being so unbelievably annoying.

I wonder how Danny Elfman would feel about it.

"These singers each think the performance is about them, and have forgotten that the point of singing is the song"

That's the whole idea behind the Simpsons, though. The point of the show is not the story, but the characters. The story has become secondary to the situations the characters get in.

I like it!
