Care to answer my post that was directed to you?

See, that's not true. Contrary to what some people seem to think, there are people who have too much selfrespect and integrity to stoop to such lows.

If I were to ever become famous, I'd want it to be because of my hardwork and talent, not because it was handed to me on some silly contest.

integrity or ego 😖hifty: the billion dollars could help many others like charity shock

Speak for yourself. I'd do many, many things for a billion pounds. Appearing on American Idol however, is not one of them.

Ac for the third time, who or what measures talent 😖hifty:

This is all getting a off track so I'm going to make this post while the puppets here do the dancing.

My point and the argument no-one has yet countered: American Idol doesn't have anything or anyone talented attached to it. You don't find talent on a "make me famous" TV show, as VVD said, you find it in a record store and as I said, you find it by seeking it out.

Nobody is wrong for watching these shows, but if you do, then admit what they are. Don't be so self-righteous as to try and justify the show just because you are ashamed of watching it.

People who watch these shows and believe they are witnessing talent, believe so because they know no better. This was proven when Raven said that she believed most music today was poor because it was all about image, not like the old days. We've since discovered that she makes zero attempt to seek out music and lives within her own limited knowledge while making the judgement calls.

American Idol has nothing to do with or is in no way affiliated/connected with, musical talent.

yeah ok. I don't care who you are lol. a billion dollars is a billion dollars.

me if I were a talented artist in a specific area, I would take the billion dollars and appear on the idol..then use the billion dollars to help other artists that are really talented but you know don't get a chance, because of issues, and i will donate to charity...

thats just me 😖hifty:

No, not "yeah ok. I don't care who you are lol." If you would bend over and take it up the metaphorical ass for a billion dollars, then go you. I wouldn't.

Your intentions are good, but I personally wouldn't use that.

In terms of? Singing? Many factors such as pitch, timbre, octave range, sustain, versatility.

Main reasons I'm not a great singer and I certainly wouldn't say I have much talent there....I have very little range. Not to mention that I just sound...odd...while singing, most of the time.

Pitch I can nail dead on....made playing violin very easy for me. Never out of tune.

ummm.........who cares what you THINK. Everybody thinks something different, so nobody's right, and opinion is an opinion not a fact, and no one can speak for anyone but themselves, and no one else. So don't get ahead of yourself.

So you rather be blinded by ego instead of taking the money and doing good with it ?

who decides pitch,timbre,octave range, sustain, harmony, versatilitty ? is there a set point of whats good or bad ?

Why go on the show if they have talent?

Because, no matter how talented someone is, they'll still do whatever they have to to get recognize. Not all talented people, if any, share your views on this matter. However hard that is to believe.

is it comprehensible.....

As I said earlier, not all bands want mainstream exposure.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greg_Graffin

For example, Dr Graffin here, as you can see, has stunning credentials. He could have made it in the business world as a rich man, easily. But he chose punk rock. Why? Not because he wanted money. He could have had that without music. No, he formed Bad Religion becuase he had genuine beefs with the world and wanted to express them through music. He's not in it for money. He could have made much more money if he had chosen a normal profession.

Funny thing, there are people who play music becuase it is a passion, not a business. You seem incapable of realizing this.

Red, why do you continue to speak to me, I have said nothing at all pertaining to anything you've said, including all bands wanting mainstream exposure.

is it comprehensible....

I WANT TO VOTE FOR THE SHITTY PEOPLE BECAUSE IT"S FUNNY AND I"M FUNNY ME AND ALL OF MY FRIENDS TALK ABOUT THIS SHOW I LOVE SIMON CUZ HE TELLS IT LIKE IT IS, THIS SHOW IS IMPORTANT TO SOCIETY BECAUSE IT INTORODUCES MORE NO TALENT MUSICIANS WHO HAVE HOMOEROTIC TENDANCIES AND GENERIC SONGS. THAT BLACK GUY WITH SIMON IS FUNNY TOO HE CALLS EVERYONE DAWG, LOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

I ****ing hate this show, it appeals to all the idiots out there and is dumbening down our society by showing more mindless garbage trivializing peoples hopes and dreams for the sake of "entertainment".

😆

BackFire, I love you 😍

The circumstance in which the money was earned would ruin it for me. I'd rather give out of my own pocket with money I earned fairly and honestly. It's nothing to do with ego.

They're measurable areas.

EG: There are 4 octave ranges, this is basically how high you can hit notes. People in general have a single octave range. Trained singers have maybe 2, 3 at best. 4 is uncanny talent and not many people have it. Females are the ones that usually possess this but males have been known to also, such as Jeff Buckley.

This is why it's provable. You can't sit there and say "I think Kelly Clarkson is as talented a vocalist as Jeff Buckley" because it's a fact she isn't.
