La Fame will cover the pop-singers hits from his early years in the 60s to more recent songs such as Sex Bomb. The show itself is very entertaining and a lot of people just like to listen to the music because Tom Jones voice is something spe- cial and its a gift that I can actually sound like him, he said.

Kane added one could learn a lot about a person just by seeing them sing. Its not about being a great singer. Its about get- ting up and having some fun and for the politicians to present themselves as peo- ple, and not as speeches and issues, he said. So far hes had a response from four politicians. Bruce Grant, whos run- ning for Ward 2 town coun- cilor, is doing a song by what he calls the greatest band of all time, The Beatles. He will sing Back in the USSR. Grants competitor in the Ward 2 race, Pam Damoff is doing Day by Day by Doug and the Slugs. Even though I'm not a singer, I think it is just great that (Kane) has organized this, she said.

The song will be I Feel Lucky.
