Where Have You Gone Walt Whitman?



Some things look better in the shade and if you knew a black car is one of those things then you might have voted for Gino Vannelli.

Thanks to Canadian content regulations, his songs remain in regular rotation at the nation's leading light rock radio stations. One of Canada's first pop musician heartthrobs, Vannelli still surprises the listening public by not being dead. But is the ability to take in and exhale a steady stream of breaths enough to make him the most mediocre? As one voter said:

"Hairy 70's early 80's singer who sang really bland songs."

Can wild horses drag him away from the competition? You decide.

Gino's a heck of a lot more interesting than say Anne Murray. Now there's my vote Anne Murray.
