weekoldhotdog 10/05/21 11:46:56 PM #1:	Sampled some of her music for the first time yesterday. My youngest daughter loves this singer, but I'm pretty behind the times on what's "good" these days. I know this chick headlines big shows and will be the youngest to open some show here soon. So I picked up the B E DLC for Beat Saber and every one of her songs are edgy themed emo titles (and perhaps lyrics, too?) but the way she "sings" it sounds like she's not even trying on her studio recordings, I can't imagine how low energy she is at her live shows. All her vocals are super soft, husky, barely any air is moving through her lungs and vocals. It's really obvious that she has range and she can sing.....but she doesn't. She just mumbles. Is this really music and why is this what people pay money for? clearly, I'm not the intended audience (see Sting & The Police and more for my taste in music), but why lower the standards so low that THIS is what's being played these days? I can barely swing a light saber to this, I can hardly imagine people dancing to it. Just so lazy, slow repeating lyrics with no real depth. For all her cash, she needs to hire a new song writer. Or not, if she can get away with being lazy and people buying it up, maybe it's time for me to get into the music industry? --- Y helo thar buttsecks <cite>weekoldhotdog posted [p:958747690] in This Billi...

Dakimakura 10/05/21 11:52:20 PM #8:	Pretty much any pop singer doesn't have the heart or energy to properly sing any sub-genre of a punk rock song and/or emo song. I was listening to that Taylor Swift attempt at a pop punk song and it was just an embarrassment. Sounded like she was just casually talking through the lyrics. And don't get me started on how bad the lyrics words. The entire song probably consisted of like 20 unique words said over and over. Song itself wasn't very bad, but Taylor Swift was just awful for it. --- https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/11900132/ https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/29307489/ <cite>Dakimakura posted [p:958747824] in This Billi...

Xethuminra 10/05/21 11:53:10 PM #9:	Billie is like teenybopper music now (and maybe forever). She has maybe 2 or 3 good songs. Thats not bad for what it is. A lot of other artists in that demographic arent actually as popular as we might infer, given the state of social media lol. The really popular artists are mostly hip hop pop artists from OUR generation, followed closely by rock musicians, and then modern composers. Then we have the vertuoso types, who occasionally rise to the level of Composer or Rock Star. I dont think there are many real technical technical pop artists tho. <cite>Xethuminra posted [p:958747854] in This Billi...
