The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

Here’s my attempt at a Tedious Link for a Uni Radio show that I do. Can I get your opinions on what you think of it, and if you could ever imagine Dave writing it. I even wrote my own mistakes in it too.

Eminem: We Made You - Kelly Clarkson: I Do Not Hook Up.
We Made You features the vocal talents of “Jessica Simpson”. Jessica Simpson covered the song These Boots Are Made for Walkin' for the 2005 film The Dukes of Hazard. The car in The Dukes of Hazard was called The General Lee. Lee Dixon is a retired footballer who played for Arsenal, and now works as a pundit for Match of the Day. Day rhymes with say and Say it Right was a 2006 hit for Nelly Furtado. Another Nelly is Nelly the rapper who used to wear a plaster on his cheek, and a plaster could also be known as a Band-Aid. Band Aid was the Christmas #1 in 1983 with Do They Know It's Christmas? And was the brain child of Midge Ure and Bob Geldof. Bob Geldof was in the Boomtown Rats who had a hit with I Don't Like Mondays. Monday is the beginning of the week and a week consists of seven days. 7 Days was a hit for Craig David in the year 2000. Also in the year 2000, Tom Jones and Stereophonics got to #4 with Mama Told Me Not to Come. The Stereophonics lead singer is called Kelly Jones and another Kelly is the Second winner of American Idol Kelly Clarkson. This links us to I Do Not Hook Up by Kelly Clarkson.

Mistakes
Jessica Simpson was actually Dina Rae.
It was 1984, not 1983.
Kelly Clarkson was the first winner, not the second.

Being a person with too much time on her hands, I transcribe Dave's links for the features section on this site, and I'd say your link is pretty close to one Dave would write, yeah. You can always read the transcriptions to compare...

Daves mistakes aren't deliberate though!

Where? Where? Where? I have looked and can't find them? Am I just being dense?

It's in 'features and reviews', 'Tedious Links'. There is a bit of an issue with old entries 'dropping off' the bottom of the page but not going into the 'older entries' section tho, I don't have the privileges needed to fix that.
