Music Idol: Lady’s attempt to sing Mariah Carey’s “Without You” in “English”

A lady was trying to sing Mariah Carey’s “Without You” on an Eastern European version of “American Idol” called “Music Idol”.

An except of her singing had become a drop on TBTL that hasn’t been used in quite a long time; that is, until Luke used it on TBTL #1872.

Luke Singing “Runaround Sue” at Bush Garden

After the #TBTLMariners night, some of the Tens moseyed on over to Bush Garden along with Luke, Andrew, Camaro Kev, McFrizz and Pape to watch and/or participate in some karaoke. One of the guys decided to put in Luke’s name to sing Dion’s “Runaround Sue”. When Luke’s name was called, he was a bit perplexed and possibly a bit unhappy about it. Nonetheless, Luke rocked the song.

Sorry about the janky portrait orientation of the video…

TBTL #1868: Luke Trying to Clear an Itch in the Back of His Throat

While Luke and Andrew were recording TBTL #1868, either allergies or something else caused Luke to have an itch in the back of his throat, in a place that it’s not easy to scratch. In all of his grace, Luke tried to clear out that itch and made a very, very interesting sound on air, as it were.

Luke would later try to create the sound…
