Ok, so exactly why do stars sound so good with their recorded songs on CDs and all, but when the perform for the Grammy's or in real competitions, it sounds totally off key? Thanks to lip syncing, many stars get by when they perform in their OWN concerts and tours, where THEY choose what goes on with the sound on stage. But at the Grammy's? Nope. My theory (and this is just a shout-out...remember: random blog!) is that the recording studios mess up the voices. Who knows what they can do with that stuff? I mean, doesnt it seem weird that it takes almost a year for a star to record one song and put in on an album? We all know it doesnt take that long to actually sing the songs, so their has got to be something else going on. Of course, these singers are still amazing on stage, but you can definetly tell the difference.
Or I just have hearing problems. Comment. YOU TELL ME!
Brynne- Personally, I don't think they mess up the voices that much in recording studios, because I have looked a lot into and (MIGHT) use one. See, it takes so long for a couple of reasons: 1. They have to write and record at least 10 songs on the album, not just one. 2. They have to record the MUSIC, VOCALS, BACKUP, and anything else they want on their CD. 3. It takes a long time to get all of that stuff done!!!
ReplyDelete(Ok, ya, Fergie sounded TERRIBLE at the Grammy's. But she's with the BLACK EYED PEAS, who happen to change their voices for a living. And also, popular music right now is kind of... Electronic, so that also adds to the time when people want their voices to be electronic-sounding.)
HHP- That is a good point. But all my friends at skool (i mean ALL of them) agreed that Taylor Swift sounded terrible at the Grammy's. And yeah, its obvious the electronic sounding voice is totally manipulated. thanks 4 the feedback!
