lack of reading skills son, lack of reading skills. I listen to alot more music than you do.

You are avoiding my point there. She CAN sing, and isn't as good live because she is dancing, and still sings rather well while dancing. Whether or not the roots dance at their concerts is irrelevant, she still can sing.

Sorry, but you really can't say you're listening to more music than I do. Really. I'm listening to music whenever I can, so that point doesn't count. And no, she can't sing, her voice is just horrible. Period. The Backstreet Boys were WAY better then her.

50 cent is just another pop artist, you can compare him to Britney Spears.
Except that she has a good voice and is attractive. I want 50 cent to be killed.

Good voice? No. Studio magic.
Attractive? The "whore" look is not appealing to me. Give me a more natural, girl-next-door type any day of the week. I'd rather wrap my wang in tinfoil than bang Britney.
50 cent? He'll get killed in a drive-by from Lil' Bow Wow or something in a few months. Give it time. :D

It was clearly referring to quantity of artists, not amount of time spent listening to music. And she does sing well, you can deny it all you want but she does. It has nothing to do with whether or not her music is good, or why she sells records, but she does sing well.

Good voice? No. Studio magic.
Studio magic is not near as amazing as you guys think.

Not? Listen to Brosis live and to a Studio record, you will be amazed how much they suck singing live. Quantity? Well if you listen to the Top 100 Billboard charts, that's just pop, no music involved in 95%. And NO, BRITNEY CAN'T SING AND THAT'S A FACT.

Britney's VOICE may get on your nerves, but yes her singing skill is not particularly bad.

That helps. I can pray.

Singing well or not, dancing, whatever.

All pop music is is manufactured garbage. Key word being "manufactured." It is a product made solely for the purpose of profit.

It would seem at first glance that Isaak Brock has one of the worst singing voices in music, but after careful examination you find that MODEST MOUSE KICKS ASS REGARDLESS, and that they make real music. WTF is everyone so fixated on vocals? I prefer instrumental music myself; the vocals and corny lyrics detract from the music (assuming there is any). Whenever I play instrumental music for anyone, the first thing they will say is "Are there any words to this?" Hell no there are no "words", this is music, not filler for your ears!!!:|
