MontanaHatchet said: When Taylor Swift can evolve and innovate like The Beatles and influence music forever...oh God, why do I even create these hypotheticals? They'll never happen. Hell, even Madonna was nowhere near The Beatles, and she was freakin' huge. Same with Aretha Franklin, Barbara Streisand, or any other really famous female singer I could name. The Beatles could write legendary songs based off of various events in their lives; hell, most of their hit songs practically have their own little stories behind them. Even Ringo could write some really kickass songs when he felt like it. |
All you need to do is listen to A Day In The Life to realize the Beatles' greatness... It actually started out as two songs. One by Lennon, the other by McCartney. It was two stories and both thought their song was incomplete so they combined them... and it became something different. Just beautiful.
And anyone who doesn't take the time to recognize the absolute mind-blowing brilliance of Strawberry Fields Forever needs to be sterilized. Without exception. Seriously, that's about the best way I've determined to figure out whether someone has a brain or not.

You need to listen to White Horse and feel the emotion of the lyrics. Also while you are at it listen to Change and Fearless and feel the intensity.
This thread is going off topic... It's about the Grammys and the quality of music and the Academy has its eyes on Taylor Swift for her recording REAL music.

Believe it or not but I've listened to the album.
You know what I think? Amy Winehouse has more talent pouring out of one heroin-addled pore than Taylor Swift will ever have in her liftetime.
Was that modern enough for you?
|
OMG AMY WINEHOUSE!!! She is so talented. Probably the most talent britian has ever produced. She is a true artist too.
|
Why because she is talented and can sing?
|
Nah, Amy Winehouse is one screwed up bitch. She's also got a knack for writing songs and emulating a 50s black American singer.
I have to admit I'm a fan. She's a fascinating character and it's hard to deny she's got some talent.

I think she is an amazingly talented singer, but I don't give her the name "artist" after what she has done.. and nearly given up music for drugs..
So much talent wasted, I don't consider britney spears an artist or anyone who lip syncs ever an artist, or someone who doesn't write there own music. Musicians sure, singers sure, but ARTIST? Artist is the full package, not just the voice.
