It is somehow fitting that the surviving half of the ultimate lip-syncing duo is bemoaning an apparent lack of real talent in the music industry - and an overabundance of 'pretty faces'.

I like this comment from the site:


"In today's world, you don't even need to be able to sing. Back then they got busted for lip-syncing. In today's world, they would just kick up the autotune and call it good."

every time I play their record I can't see them...
still like the music though.
they pulled a good one, its funny that after all this time some still feel ripped off.

I still 'see' them when I hear one of their tunes. But for me it's more like "The Monkees". i.e. Catchy tunes put together by real writers and studio musicians - fronted by some 'actors' who did what they were told.
