She can't sing

anyone who says that madonna can't sing must watch this video. she was singing live at oscars 1991. when she was there with michael jackson.

What she threw at the end of the song was an earing 20milion dolars worth!!hihihihihi


 
Ciara still can't sing but i like her new song, "Like A Boy"

How is it that you can like a song but still point out the "singers" lack of vocal ability. She still strains to carry a note but the beat is hot and i like some of the lyrics.
 
I guess when they say she can't sing they mean that she doesn't have a technically skilled voice. Although Madonna can hit the right notes (which for "normal"/everyday people probably qualifies as being able to sing), she doesn't have any kind of impressive or rare vocal gift. There are thousands of women out there who can sing just like her. She merely doesn't sing off-key ! Hitting the right notes, a lot of people can do that...But to actually SING sing is different ! Madonna lacks the vocal range and power to be classified as a great voice, in my humble opinion always.

On the contrary, when you listen to a huge voice like eg. Christina Aguilera, you'll probably notice that she does so much more than just hitting the right notes... She has a huge vocal range, makes perfect use of complex vocal/singing "techniques" like vibrato and melisma, and her vocal power is over the top. She can BELT out a note and make the frickin' earth shake !!

Just because somebody has good songs doesn't mean they're good singers. A good song just means great music, lyrics, beats etc. A lot of average or even bad singers have good songs. For example, I like a lot of songs by Hilary Duff or Ashlee Simpson, but THE SONGS are good. Not the voices ! Ashlee's just ok but nothing great, and Hilary's below shit !

Wow, Tyler1987, you REALLY impressed me with your musical knowlegde ! I'm totally into stuff like that too ! Are you a singer or anything ? Or are you studying music/singing or whatever ? I'm really into analysing music and voices too cos I wanna be a singer... Loved the way you described everything so scientifically, like the breathing and all ! (don't you just hate it when people say Britney's a better SINGER than Xtina ? A lot of girls at my school say Xtina's VOICE isn't as good as Britney's ! Uhh...helloooo ? Britney meows and whispers, Xtina belts. Britney's vocal range is minimal, Xtina's huge - gotta be at least 4 octaves, seriously !-. Britney can sustain a note for like 3 seconds and flat, Xtina can sustain it for 20, WITH vibrato and shit. WHERE exactly do they see Britney's vocal superiority over Xtina ????? )
 
Oh hell no, obviously you havent listenned to "Where Are You Now" off Britney's sophmore album. She not only hits the high note she sustains it beautifully.

Rude.
 
I didn't say Britney can't sing AT ALL... But she's not that great either . She's just got a good voice. But that's it. Good. Not very good or great . She's good but nothing THAT special ! Her voice is so ... powerless. No matter how much she tries to belt, she still sounds like she's meowing . No, absolutely NO COMPARISON to Xtina . Even if you don't like her, you CANNOT possibly say Britney has a better voice than Xtina. That's just bullsh*t . Xtina has an OBJECTIVELY extraordinary voice . Period.
 
Madonna's voice is weak really, it's not that great. She relies on computers to engineer her voice. Madonna makes up for it with controversy and publicity stunts.

In terms of performance Pink could easily replace her anytime soon. Both Controversial and sexual, Both capable of fucking insane stunts (Pink a freaking uses a net to do acrobatics w/o a safety rope), but pink can sing better.
 
That's definitely what people mean when they say, "She can't sing!".. Of course, with all the studio software and all that stuff, people can sound amazing on records, but when it's live that'll show you whether or not they have vocal talent..

I love Madonna, but I know for a fact her voice isn't strong like some other artists. Some people just want raw, full fledged Jennifer Hudson vocal ability with everyone, but music is a lot more than that. There are different genres, ways of expressing songs, vocal styles, if an artist can find their niche and make themselves shine there, there really shouldn't be a problem.

For example, I know for a fact Imogen Heap can't sing very well. I think she can carry a tune, but her voice isn't outstanding. But it's what she does with her voice in combination with the music that makes me like her..

Like the track "Hide and Seek", the song doesn't bring the house down, but it's a sincere, raw song. Like i said, highlight your attributes. She happens to be very talented in production.
 
Rihanna was rewarded with musics highest honor so haters can continue to say that "she can't sing"

I could really give a fuck if a neo-nazi, devil worshipping out of tune biotch is singing the song.


Throw some harmonizer on that cunt, little auto-tune, give me some clever lyrics and nice synth beat.

Let me enjoy myself for three minutes

Then let me get on with my fucking day.

Nothing that serious.
 
Well to say that any of these artist can't sing is misleading....
What I will say is that most preformers can sing, but are "enhanced" digitally to level out pitches and make the sound good. Preformers seem to be more about image than talent.
Madonna for example has made an image for herself and is all about selling the image especially now. But Madonna has sung songs at her concerts.
Britney Spear is a better example, her sound is completely created in a studio, hence the reason she lipsyncs her performances ( although she claims it to be the dance numbers making her out of breath).
Christina is another strong vocal performer and has sung live and has a good powerful voice.
Lady GaGa (whom I adore)....her voice is better in songs where its in her key....but again she performs without lipsyncing. But she does sound overall good

what I can't stand are the Britney's they put out......the ones that are OK singers but have "the look"
 
One time, I watched Britney sing Everytime live while she was on the piano, and I could feel my ears bleeding. And I am someone who loves Britney. I love her song because they are catchy and entertaining. But if I want to ear someone sing well live, I certainly wouldn't go to her. Similarly, I love Taylor Swift's music, but her live singing is just awful. I am by no means a music or vocal expert, but all I have to do is listen to how these artists sound on a cd and how they sound live, and I pretty much know who the good singers are. Anyone can sound good in a cd - its called technology. But when someone sounds just as good live as they do on the cd, you know its not the tech doing the work for them.
 
Madonna can carry a tune but if far from a great singer. Even with all the voice lessons in the world she will never be considered a GREAT vocalist.
 
When I hear someone say that a person cannot sing, it usually means:

1) I do not like the person.

2) I do not like the person's voice.

3) The person does not have a rare or unique voice.

Personally, I look for the basics. Can the person carry a song? If yes, he or she can sing. Everyone's not going to have a voice that I like or that is rare, but that does not mean that they do not possess the talent to sing.
 
What happened to Tina Turner, Aretha Franklin, and many of the late and greats? Those were PURE talent. These days? Rihanna would've been a back up dancer 30 years ago. Music now-a-days is just what it is... business. These big named producers and distributers could give a shit about how you sing, they hand you a package.

Here's songs and big producers, look this way, talk this way, act this way, dance this way, do this and that this way oh and just remember that we don't care about how you end up. Music is obsolete, you'll go down faster than you came in. (SIGN HERE...)

Rihanna will be replaced by some broad named Binky Dott Vitty in 10-15 years, and Binky's fans will back up her talent by posting photos with Grammy in her hands... and this pattern will keep up until Binky is replaced by Stinky and Stinky replaced by Itty and Itty replaced by Titty. Hey, Britney hasn't even peaked 15 years yet and look where she's headed. Madonna is still relevant because she's a legend, like it or not. She did what others weren't doing at that time and was really controversial.
 
Artists who CAN sing:

1) Beyonce
2) Celine Dion
3) Christina Aguilera

Artists who CAN'T sing:

1) Britney Spears
2) Rihanna
3) Madonna
4) Ciara
5) Taylor Swift

But any non-singer can still have a good or hit song as long as the beat is hot and catchy. There is at least one song from all five non-singers on my list that I love because the song's music and/or lyrics are great. I love Overprotected (Britney Spears), Don't Stop the Music (Rihanna), Hung Up (Madonna), Work (Ciara), and Love Story (Taylor Swift); even though neither of these five artists can sing, I still like said songs because of the music and/or lyrics. At that point, the record producer and the songwriter are the real talent, not the artist.

Britney and Madonna can sing. Before Britney had a record contract, she could actually sing and she has sung live in some live performances. With Britney, it's either laziness or apathy, but she knows how to carry a song, or she did anyway. The same goes for Madonna, she can sing live now, but I'm not sure about her early career as I did not follow her when she first entered the scene.

Rihanna was horrible when she first began and she does not have the excuse of being an entertainer. However, she has improved majorly in her technique, but her voice is still beyond mediocre. Ciara should have been a backup dancer and Taylor should have simply been on television as a Disney star.
 
What i am about to say will put a rest to the whole "she can't sing" thing.


A True vocalist does not need to dance and put on a show to sell concert tickets.

A true vocalist can stand in one spot all night, or sit by a piano or play a guitar and sell out arenas.

Why can they do this? because their voice is the star and they don't need distractions to keep people interested.

Thats all.

Britney can't sing a lick, and I have been an avid Britney fan in the past (and I admit those were some great days), so I know all about her voice. She was never a singer, always an entertainer.
 
For a moment there I thought Danugh was back!!! *GASP* He/she is!

Then I realised this thread was 3 years old - who would've thought that she/he would have needed to change his/her username in order to pull this thread from the archives to prove a point about effing Rihanna?
