HERE WE WILL DISCUSS VARIOUS ISSUES PERTAINING TO SINGING. WHEN YOU START A NEW SUBJECT OR REPLY TO AN EXISTING ONE, PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR VOICE TYPE (Soprano, Mezzo-Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Baritone, etc.) WITH YOUR NAME. IF YOUR VOICE WAS NEVER CLASSIFIED, JUST PUT WHAT PART YOU SING IN THE CHOIR: Sop I or II, Alto I or II, etc. THANKS!!!
Well shoot, there are many a beautiful, non-singin' person out there. But also, there are those beauties who can really blow. Let's not be biased against those pretty folks (damn them!). Mariah, Whitney, Lauryn, Jill Scott (though not conventionally beautiful, I think she is amazingly gorgeous), etc. Some folks get all the luck
But I'd rather have music than a pretty face any day. Wouldn't you?

Has this ever happened to you? A good friend of mine asked me what I thought about a certain "artist" (who shall remain nameless) who gets alot of hype. I told him that I didn't think she could sing very well. He said, "Yes she can. She's beautiful." And I replied, "She may be beautiful, but she still can't sing!"
Exactly my point. But what this guy was trying to say was that this artist could sing BECAUSE she was cute and I was trying to make him understand that she can't sing, he just likes the way she looks! HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
There are artists who are better live (or video) performers than actual singers - people who I have to be watching to appreciate. Mariah's cute, but she's got no stage presence. Janet's cute, is a great performer and I love her overall energy, but she can't really SING. To me, the best singers are the ones I can appreciate whether I'm watching them perform or just playing the CD.
