2# In February of this year Amerian Idol television show contestant
Blake Lewis sung Virtual Insanity. Then in May, Canned Heat was one

danced to Black Devil Car (Watch a video clip of this here:http://tinyurl.com/yq3had ). The routine wasn't good enough to keep

being used on TV shows, especially in countries where the band are not
as popular.
