Is ANYONE else but me sick and tired of listening to some little biatch with the voice of a 12 year old, and the enunciation of a southern *****, being double, triple, quadruple tracked to a beat in order to give her some sort of a voice? Complete with fully electronic backing track played, it would seem, on a Rolf Harris stylophone. Jeeeeesus!

Note to so-called pop gurus: when these little biatches are on radio, ie: we can't see how sexy they (maybe) are, it FAILS!!!!!!

Whatever happened to girls who could SING, Debbie Harry being one?

The present offering is lame, boring and bland. Get it gone, PLEASE! Does ANYONE actually BUY these tracks?

(alcazar: just tuned into Hallam to eat my tea, my wife having American Pap TV on AGAIN, and was bombarded with Kelly Clarkson, (is it Jeremy's girl? If so I now hate him 100% more!), someone just called "Cheryl" and Pink.)
Bland, bland, bland, boring, boring, boring and TALENTLESS!!!!!!!!

All thesxe cover versions by a little girl sounding like she is in the last stages of the ebola virus, like the John Lewis snowman ad, or the twinings as. Rubbish. Give me 'Barracuda' by Heart, any Aretha gospel or Norah Jones any day.

I don't think Kelly Clarkson can be classed as talentless - she has written some good songs!

.....and not JC's daughter

Awful, awful, awful. Talentless, double tracked, useless little biatch.

Name a good song by her?

Grrrrr, the murderer of 'The Power of Love' is Gabrielle Aplin. She needs to be lined up alongside Slobodan Milosevic.

Think you'll find Pink is quite an established artiste

Carole King, Karen Carpenter, Streisand etc. I doubt we will ever see talent like that again. Ok, they all rave about Adele these days , and yes she is good, but nothing compared to those I named above.

Uh oh, SN long-termers showing their age?

The only one i really hate is Nicki Minaj.

Here are some of her lyrics...


'Starships were meant to fly,
Hands up and touch the sky.'


brilliant.. Some more,


'Bees in the trap,
bees bees in the trap (X4)'

Wow. More..

'I wish that i could have this moment for life,
for life,
for life,
for life.'

Just amazing.

How does she get signed with ****e like that?

For the record, you only need to hear these songs once to memorise the in-depth and meaningful lyrics..

Brun

Yep - I too have a dislike for Nicky Minge!

RA Dunk

That's worse than Robbie Williams last effort
Ring a ring of roses?

Seriously WTF?

Sings down her nose, the bit where she starts the refrain: triple tracked.

Awful pap. If I'd paid to see her, I'd ask for my money back.

Plus she has a squashed nose, probably from singing down it too much.
Horrid.

Brun

So who do you rate?

Hmmmmmmmm you 70s people may know the surname, but I quite like this singer, yet to break out into the mainstream, but her acoustic version of "Uninvited" which she sang the dance remix of for the Freemasons.

Her own song.

Freemasons cover of Alanis Morissette "Uninvited".

Accoustic version of above.


And her mother in the 70s.



So again the talent is out there, it's just that these idiots who "pick" musicians, and signers do so for purely commercial reasns and not musical.
I mean Rick Astley was only chosen and Pete Waterman accepted a challenge that he could turn "anyone" into a pop star as he was that good!! Seems that he knew that the general populous buys crap, and are influenced by the herd!!

Dusty Springfield, Erykah Badu, Aretha (as mentioned before by me), Norah Jones, as stated above Karen Carpenter, the list goes on. None of them do (or did) the stupid cover version with a half asleep voice.

SirFozzalot

Simon Cowell is testament to that.

Didn't he make his first big money with stuff like Mr Blobby and Zig & Zag?

David Lock

Well I rave about Adele and I would her include her in your group

There USED to be girls who could sing, folk, folk rock and rock:

Sandy Denny, Celia Humphris, Liz Fraser (Cocteau Twins), Sonja Krystina, Debby Harry, Jacquie McShee, Judy Collins, Judith Durham, Grace Slick.

None of them needed double tracking, and they could do it live too.

Debbie Harry awesome singing lol.....


Tulisa really bugs me. Talentless and plain, but made out to be some kind of megastar. I think Cowell saw how big Cheryl Cole got and thought he could do the same with any girl.

There are many female singers in their genre that have fantastic voices but are generally not heard of.
