His first choice for the title, "My Name Is Barbra", had already been taken. He had to go with this lame title, instead.

Heard a little bit of his interview with NPR this week. Damn this guy is boring AF. Asked a simple question and he drones on and on forever. I could tell even the generous NPR fangurl interviewer was losing her patience.

He knocked a girl up at 14!

I mean ew. But also.......damn.

I thought this thread was about the comedian and actor Michael McDonald. Disappointing.

Always thought the other Michael McDonald - comedian - was kinda hot. And gay.

Wait he did what with a 14 year old?!? How old was he?!?

*He* was 14 when he knocked up a girl, Rose.

Paul "Mad About You" Reiser is co-writing, thank God.

Next after I finish 'Lessons in Chemistry'. Looking forward to it because I love him, but afraid it will be a bore.

Love Kenny Loggins too, but his autobiography was weak. Interesting, but weak. Michael's may be similar.

A lot of the "Yacht Rock" guys found god. Maybe it was all the drugs.

He and the girl were both 14. And somewhere out there is a kid of McDonald's in their 50s running around.

What A Fool Believes is one of those songs that, even though it's relatively upbeat, will always make me cry a little.

WHO? Does everyone have a memoir now?

by Anonymousreply 16June 17, 2024 4:20 PM

It's a decent cash grab for aging stars with a changing media landscape. If you're younger or mid career, it's a good way to put yourself out there or create an angle for a comeback. The room for exposition sure as hell beats cable interviews and stupid social media creators,.so I like memoirs

Come on, R16... He's certainly famous enough to write a memoir.

R16

Seriously? You don't know who is is or have never heard of him?

Are you trying to impress with your youth? There's a whole lot of music out there that you might surprising;ly enjoy.

Like him and his music or not, Michael McDonald is considered a classic. And he's still got it.

Finished the book.

I mean it was interesting but also, sheesh, he was a drunk for a long time. And his career has muddled along since the 90s.

He's been a nostalgia act pretty much since his LaBelle duet, no?

Of course we'd talk about high school.
