He sang Unchained Melody at David Foster's request. David Foster introduced Clay as his brother-in-law. Last Edited By: EllieTay 11/07/09 12:26 AM. Edited 1 times.

Did Clay marry his sister? I don't think so, but it is probably easier to explain than saying "Clay and my sister have a son they are raising together." Wow, Clay's voice was awesome in that video. He still has it.

I know the video quality and camera work is awful, but now I really know how talented the more seasoned clack gatherers are. You guys are the best! David Foster had a schtick going on (which I'm sure you guys have heard about by now). After singing a note, David would ask a member of the audience in the front row to come up to the microphone and sing it back to him. The first two times, the audience members were normal audience members. But the third and final time, it was Clay! David sang a note, and Clay sang it back but the note was too high. David said something to the effect of what he can do when he produces and then sang another note. Clay sang it back perfectly. David then introduced Clay as his brother-in-law, mentioned that his sister and Clay had a baby together, and invited Clay to come up on stage. I started to flip out, said OMG about 20 times in a row, and set my digital camera to video mode as fast as I could! Clay looked great! His hair was brown, not red. I'm glad that someone gave him j.acket to wear on stage so he could comply with the "dress code." Clay was very enthusiastic during Ruben's set. From where I sat (very far away from the stage), I could see Clay in the front row clapping his hands above his head after Ruben's songs and waving his arms around after Ruben's request. Near the end of Charice's set, someone came by the front row, and Clay ducked and ran along the front row to go backstage. Last Edited By: EllieTay 11/07/09 8:36 AM. Edited 3 times.

It seems so sterile and unemotional. Like he's simply going through the motions of singing this very painful and sad song. I just don't "feel" his longing for the lover that he's so desparate for.

Clay has been very supportive of Ruben. I'm sure if someone asked him who his favorite American idols were. They would probably be Kelly and Ruben. I think he has mentioned he has every single release from both of them.

Well, I think you have to take into consideration the video was taken with a camera phone so some of the richness and clarity of his voice would be lost. Plus the fact that Clay was not part of the show, and brought up on stage to sing unexpectedly with no rehearsal.

Maybe if he sang it on helium while gyrating and groping around his package you'd be able to feel it more.

He's still arguably the best male singer from the last 20 years.

Technically a wonderful singer but zero emotive skills. Going through the motions is what comes to mind when I hear him sing most of the time. He's still arguably the best male singer from the last 20 years. I can think of several who are better. Josh Groban immediately comes to mind.

You will always find fault with Clay no matter how well he does. Your last resort is to claim he is emotionless because his voice is too good to bash believably.

His voice is good..... that doesn't mean I HAVE to hear what you hear.... it's called an opinion... I'm entitled to mine...

It is always a setup for a bash. You really must think you're clever but everyone can see right through you.
