interesting points there dudes...i hear yah
heres my opinion tho...alicia keys is a dam fine singer, but meriah carey?...shes just as bad as beyonce, they dont sing they shout! and its annoying
i like madonna because she has a very different voice and she has good writers behind most of her newer stuff (ray of light, frozen ok their not new but fairly recent, and i geuss american pie ...even tho i hate the cover her voice made a nice alternate)....britney and all them lot sound the same to me....not much difference...except christina who pretty much either sounds like she is holding her nose when she is singing\screamin
just my thought
You could be right about Mariah... I do everything I can not to listen to her voice, so maybe I forgot how bad the shreiking really is. I've seen all of her videos countless times, but I keep the volume down real low (I find the music distracts me from what I'm really interested in
).
Re: Madonna... we'll have to agree to disagree; I find her voice to be rather pedestrian. If you want another example of a good "singer," I'd sumbit Janet Jackson's name (I believe she only sings, but might be wrong). In any event, she's a much better singer than the popstars already mentioned. Ditto fo Jacko. (BTW, I hate their music, I speak only of singing ability).
Re: Alicia Keys.... her music is not my cuppa tea, but I respect her talent. Her 2nd album did not receive the fanfare and record sales of the 1st one, but from what I've heard and read it's a worthy follow-up.
