It was Jordan Knight from NKOTB. He came back for one last hurrah.

Yep it is a David Seville cover. It had more of a production than Seville's version (with added sound effects and no squeaky voice). I do like Seville's version though.

Ah yeah. I am very religious with setting 20 songs (the main researching I do is on my many 'Now' Albums). I think it is because I don't want people to get bored ploughing through and rating millions of songs at once.
