Clay obviously needs to release an album of alt-80s songs — stuff younger kids now call (ugh) “retro.”
He was born to sing Erasure’s “(A Little) Respect” and A-Ha’s “Take On Me.”

Oh, well. Some good choices for his voice, though: “Suspicious Minds,” “Unchained Melody” and “It’s Only Make Believe.” But previewing them at iTunes, the arrangements are a bit inspid — too Lawrence Welk.
If he was gonna go that route, he should’ve stuck a Tom Jones tune on there, then.
