What is with the music industry these days?! Half of the 'singers' voices are computerized! I mean have you heard hoobastank, ashlee simpson, jo jo and all of those other teeny boppers live without and digital products?! They are horrible! Does it piss anyone else off that they are the ones making millions of dollars and becoming famous for something they can't even do??!

Ha, you don't see real talent around much anymore.. at least, not in mainstream music, you don't. Well, not a lot... just quite a few real talent.. yeah.

I kinda disagree with you...I mean they do computerize it a bit, but the singers do have talent, cuz otherwise anyone could make millions! They sing OK live, cuz they kan still hit high notes and such...k, maybe that didnt make sense.... huh.gif

actually their record lables are getting the majority of that money. the untalented bands get paid for touring and, therefore, being paid for being untalented.

but i agree. there is a lack of talent when it comes to music these days.

its hard to explain, like if you listen carefully jo jo's voice changes throughout the song. and as someone stated above britney's voice has changed over her records too much to be normal

Yeah I know! But some bands [i.e Yellowcard] sound good live. I've seen Story of The Year, Bad Religion, and Yellowcard in concert. They're all awesome. And you can tell it isn't computerized, they sound WAY better than the CD! lol

Britney Spears is an awful singer. She sounds like crap without syntho.

i thought the guitarist was wack jumping up and down; but maybe my tv's volume wasn't high enough

i don't dig the mainstream stuff.
computerized or enhanced voices suck, they need to learn how to sing.

Yeah, the singers of today get popularity based on their looks and stuff. It's not like it used to be. Popularity isnt based on people's voices anymore. But hey, I like Jojo. _dry.gif Sure, on her cd her voice is computerized, but if you've seen her perform on tv, she does sing live. And some people's voices arent computerized. Take Alicia Keys for example. She's very good. _smile.gif

Haha. Yeah...that's why I don't like techno too much. pinch.gif Especially since I have a French pop song rendition of their alphabet burned into the creases of my brain (French I last year).
