I wasn't crazy when Natalie Cole did this same thing with her father Nat years ago. Kind of conflicted about the whole thing.

Mama Cass! She was great, imo!

Edit: Well, he said Mama Cass but it's John Denver.

Edit again: It's driving me nuts that his upper lip doesn't move. That has to affect his singing...

I might have to change the channel. He just said, take it away John.

I don't want to come across as too critical Noel.

Since you asked - I don't know if his upper lip ever moved much even when he was younger. I think the facial augmentation and fillers over the years may be negatively impacting his ability to enunciate the words properly.

IMHO - he added nothing to John Denver's song.

I had to take a peek via online.

His top lip never moved if memory serves me correctly. He never really smiled opened mouth and all teeth.

That said, with all the other cosmetic procedures he's had, I'm really surprised he hasn't gone for a chin implant.

Thanks for filling me in, Bird mama! I didn't want to mention it either, but it has to have some impact. My grandmother taught voice for a time, I can just hear her to telling him to open his mouth! OK, I got that out of my system, now Smile
