Zed McGlunk and the Schmebulocks have some wonderful vocals {Z has a 5 octave range and can break windows as well as deafen fish at the bottom of the ocean} but some kinda dodgy violin playing. Funnily enough, their violinist is called Buzzia Dell.Am I the only one who thinks that Adele cannot sing? Her last record reminds me of as if Zed McGlunk was singing it.
I'd have her voice doing backing vocals on my songs, any time !!Am I the only one who thinks that Adele cannot sing?
And you would probably earn fist full's of cash. But great singer? No way and my mind boggles on how that is claimed. But it's got to the stage where people go fanatical over something which really is just nothing. Total hype!I'd have her voice doing backing vocals on my songs, any time !!
I heard her sing that Hello song or 'word'. Then I heard this latest one on radio the other day after watching Mr Beato swoon over her recently . I have heard a few recent interviews/complaints/moans in past few weeks and heard/read how her divorce is to blame for everything....................and thats it in total besides pics of before and after weight loss. I know nothing else.Watching the recent video at the US observatory made me change my mind about her. I don't like the music much, but the girl can sing - quite well actually, based on the usual criteria. Pitch - the slide up technique is pretty well controlled, and her tuning seems fine. Timbre - she has a characteristic tone and again, it's controlled. Diction - she signs better than she speaks. Can she sing? Yes, she can. You might not like her style, or attitude, or persona - but there is no doubt she can sing, and an awful lot better than many - especially when she belts.
Lady GaGa singing and some of her songs as well. But it should stop there. She and others are entertainers and thats it.+1 For Lady Gaga. She has a pop sensibility that I am not really all in with but great pipes. Another I have been impressed with vocally is Pink, who, like Lady Gaga , works in a genre I'm not really a consumer of. For Adele type bluesiness I like the sound of an artist called ZZ Ward. "Put the Gun Down" is a good one from miz Ward
OTOH, a female singer I can't abide is Celine Dion. Don't get me wrong- she is great at what she does and I won't claim she can't sing. I just find her unlistenable. 'Druther put spikes in my ears if I had my 'druthers.
Yes you are one of the only ones who think Adele cannot sing - there's a difference between inability and not liking the way someone sings.Am I the only one who thinks that Adele cannot sing? Her last record reminds me of as if Zed McGlunk was singing it.
Just my thoughts.
Mmmmm. Perhaps I should have worded it better.Yes you are one of the only ones who think Adele cannot sing - there's a difference between inability and not liking the way someone sings.
Her voice was better when she had a bigger ass. Now shes all thinner. I like it more all big and full.Actually a few people agree with me.
Are you in for a hissy fit tantrum if you ever run into him!If you draw up a list of things you could use to decide if somebody could sing it will be flawed. Pitch, rhythm, tonality, purity these kinds of thing and say a tick = 1 point and therefore a good singer would be 4, and a bad singer would be 1 - it fails the minute you apply it to real people. Frank Sinatra would really struggle. By any practical rating he should be a bad singer, but he's a great one - but there's something in his voice that overpowers any of the rules? You can hear loads of flat notes, loads of out of time notes, loads of mangled diction - but the result is a great song, with style. Maybe this is what gets Adele into trouble - her way of singing while technically accurate really annoys some of us? Same thing with Celine Dion. Elton John has in his early songs loads of lyrics that you have to google to know what he sang - now he's got old, his voice has pretty much gone. The range, the power and the clarity gone and the way he has to sing live now because of his age is not Elton any more, as we remember him.
Maybe statements like this explain why she sells millions of albums and you don’t.Am I the only one who thinks that Adele cannot sing? Her last record reminds me of as if Zed McGlunk was singing it.
Just my thoughts.
