Brainwave! Read this Louis

I was struggling to get to sleep and suddenly had a brilliant idea, and couldn't resist coming back to post it.

It's widely predicted that orders will eventually be given from on high that the twins are to perform a ballad without their now-customary choreographic hoopla and gimmickry.

When the time comes, Mr. Walsh, picture this: J&E on a darkened stage, in nice suits, with maybe a bit of dry ice, and they sing:










The Hollies' "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother".

Show Won.

The End.

Fin.

All back to Louis's.

I thang yew!

Seriously, if the twins could work hard on their singing and get their heads on straight it could bring the house down and have even the haters weeping in the aisles.

You don't think that's possibly so corny that it will have everyone over thirteen switching channels?

No doubt they'd ruin it by trying to carry each other! - brilliant idea though.

Is it possible to be TOO corny on this show?!

OP, that is a cracking idea and I would love it if they did that. Bonus marks for them if they cry at the end and hug.

Well, it seemed like a good idea during a bout of insomnia last night!

Could be a good move though ... if they get through this week.

Having listened to it this morning...it's quite hard. I think they'd massacre it!

(But I still love the idea!)
