Does anyone else watch this show?

Do you get the urge to run to youtube and hear the song played "right" if someone messes up a song you love?

I watched one season... and I DID go to YouTube, a few times, to hear the original artist.... to compare.  I'd say it was 50/50 whether I preferred the original artist, or the one singing on The Voice.

He laughs at me fussing at some of them things like, "Just shut up!" or "That's a song you shouldn't try to change!" and "WHY didn't you pick something you CAN sing?" Like they can hear me. I think I go running to youtube just to get them out of my head.

Don't get me wrong. All of the singers are good. Some of them just aren't good enough--especially for some of their choices, and I think someone in their life should have been nice enough to give them a clue.

The season I watched... most of the singers had professional experience.  They sang back-up for a known artist, had bit parts in a Broadway show, etc.
