some are insecure,and it's the only thing between them and the audience.

It's just the flavor of the day.  Reality is what is hot now.  They still perform but aren't always able to get the whole band together for reunions.  I think they are at the point in their lives where they are not totally washed up but still need to put themselves out there and let people know they're still around.

Yes, I enjoy it.  I want to be good at it.  I don't always try and express my feelings.  I don't always look at it as art per say.  I have a horrible voice.  I still write songs though.

They lip sync. They might sing along to the pre-recorded song so that their performance has more emotion too it, but they're basically lip syncing.

Stick your finger down your throat until you barf up musical notes.\n\nJk.  You can't "learn" to sing well.  You can learn to enhance your vocals by taking singing lessons, but a magnificent voice is a special gift that you are born with.  A person could hold a note longer than anyone in the world and still have a crappy-sounding voice.  You have to have the gift first to further enhance it.

Obviously they are either not good Christians or they do not agree that the music they are listening to is Satanic.\n\nI can not say which it is because I do not know which bands or musicians you are talking about, but the line is different for many people.

A lot of guys sound like girls when they sing! LOL... A lot of great female singers sang really low. Like Tracy Chapman. Work with whatcha got!

ok, Hilarry Duff sucks... and there is nothing anyone can do about it, because she sucks supremely.  Sorry enyone if you like her but, she sucks, has a supremely flat voice too.  Girls have killed the music industry, ALL girl singers have flat voices, and ALL girl singers have been chosen/decided to sing because a) they were/are an actress and figure they can do both b) they're hot, so people decided to like just because of their looks c) they're rich and buy their way to the top, even though they suck.  Guys have resurectted the music biz...

Okay..I will let the Cher comment slide since she made it in singing before she started acting...\nOkay enough.\nI think the worst singers are the young ones today like Hilary Duff, Lindsey Lohan, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie. \nThere is nothing that irks me more when I hear them in a inteview saying "my album is dropping..check it out!" I think...who makes the decisions on whether these girls can sing? Because they can't! Oh course lots of money is spent on making their vocals decent so the world is not covering their ears.

In the studio, everyone is a good singer.\n\nWith enough takes and processing, a skilled engineer can make anybody sound great.  This is often necessary when actors take up music.

As long as that your listening to has the witness of a christian, im ok with it. I dont agree with Metal, Acid Rock, that screaming into the microphone, blowing speakers and eardrums kinda music. If you cant understant the words at all, then waht is the difference in it and, say Ozzy Osborne? I want to be able to hear the difference. So CCM.... Casting Crowns, Steven Curtis Chapman Kepp going  guys.... You Metal Singers... a little less screaming please :)

I've been singing rock and metal for years. I think most of the "growl" singers are hurting their throats to get that sound. Others have that sound naturally and can use it as needed. I can't say how long you can get away with over pushing your voice. For some, it's a couple of years and others may go for 10 years or more. I don't anymore, but I used to over push allot and my voice is fine. Incorrect singing can also give you nodes on your vocal chords that can lead to cancer, so I suggest seeing a good vocal coach who is familiar with heavy metal singing.

I think they would just cause they may not sing very well on there own, they can start a band and have someone stand beside them and sing, it may help carry there voice to where it needs to go, or even just a back up singer for someone with a greater voice, I think anything is possible!

No way.\nThat doesn't sound right. Rockstars are so yesterday. \nVampires are classy, stylish creatures.\nThey'd probably be thumping musical instruments at a concert rather than bringing attention to themselves.\n\nJenova\n(d.yuffie@gmail.com)

its the way she sings. I've wondered this and watched her sing. What she does is she tips her head forward down towards her neck you know, like if you do that it looks like you got a double chin. Anyways and she holds the position and she doesn't breathe like other singers do she doesn't breathe as often when she sings. This is why her voice is different...and annoying!

Sadly the raspy vocal phenomenon has been overdone.  There's too many artists who sounds like that now to make it a unique sound.  So now it just sounds like all of them are trying to copy each other.  So sad, it was a cool sound.
