Um...gee...thanks!!!

So here I sit listening to my birthday present from my mom (the big 25, thank you very much) the Tony Bennett Duets CD that was released by Target for his 80th birthday. I dig old school Tony Bennett and jazz of course, but something about hearing Juanes sing "The Shadow of Your Smile" that doesn't do it for me.Anyway, this got me thinking of my birthday a few years ago when my mom bought me the Clay Aiken CD "Measure of a Man". She's heard him on Oprah, thought to herself, "I bet Martin would really like that!" She was so happy and proud when I opened the present, and I didn't have the heart to tell her that I had NO interest in listening to a Clay Aiken CD.(I did give it a listen, and it wasn't unbearable. Furthermore, I keep it in my CD rack just so when she visits she can see it there, and not think I've sold it!)So, anyone out there have any stories of albums or concerts that someone close to them was certain they'd love, only to be WAY OFF???
