    1. Sinatra – way cooler than Elvis because his hair never moved nor did his hips.
    2. Barry Manilow at the Copacabana.
    3. Beatles – gave more satisfaction.
    4. Donny Osmond – call it puppy love okay?
    5. Amy Winehouse – imagine that hair in rehab?

    4. Donnie Osmond. (He still has his own parts I hear…)
    5. Dolly P. (But maybe she could do some Spears or some Winehouse just for fun?)
