Official Trump social media accounts have been using The Life of a Showgirl snippets to promote his agenda. Why has Swift, who once wanted ‘to be on the right side of history’, said nothing?
That millions of people consider themselves her fans speaks volumes to how wrong you are. I’m a metalhead but to say in absolutes that she can’t sing in an enjoyable way is ludicrous.
You said that she can’t make enjoyable music. If millions of people enjoy her music, it’s enjoyable.
Millions of people liked Trump, Trump WAS likeable to them when they voted, you can’t deny that part. Them choosing the best choice or not is irrelevant to the point you were making. You didn’t say that her music was bad or derivative. You said that she can’t sing in a way that people enjoy, but people do enjoy it.
I agree. When her vocals are mixed and auto tuned, she sounds great. I think she puts together some pretty great tracks, but I’ve heard her try to sing without any enhancements and I do not like it. In my opinion, she’s an artist, not a singer.
If someone finds her raw singing enjoyable, more power to them. I didn’t think I had to be super specific that a statement of taste was an opinion. LOL
We’ll have to agree to disagree on the topic. I think she’s a pretty great artist who makes wonderful use of auto tune and other modern music-making marvels, but in my opinion saying she is a singer is a stretch of the imagination.
Look, dude, I’m not a T-Swift fan by any means, but she would not have made it this far if she wasn’t a competent singer. Just did a quick search to find her singing live, and I listened to five seconds of this video of her on SNL. She’s not an Adele or Mariah Carey or something, but she’s fine. She does what she needs to do. Saying she relies on autotune and other studio magic is kind of a silly argument. Everyone uses that these days.
I didn’t say everyone doesn’t use it some. I’m saying I’ve heard her without it and the few times I have, I didn’t think it sounded good at all. I like a whole lot of people that aren’t Mariah Carey or Adele. I never said that was my expectation…
Ah, I see. You’re using “not being able to sing” to mean you don’t think she sings well. I remember someone saying Ariana Grande had terrible vocals, even though she’s ranked among the top vocalists, and though you were doing that too.
I don’t like Swift’s music, so I’m not even defending her. It’s just weird when people pull stuff out of their butt around here.
Yeah, you have a very interesting communication style as well, choosing one thing or another at your convenience. And gritty, too, even when someone is willing to meet you in the middle. I don’t see why I bothered.
She can’t sing and he can’t lead. Seems like a perfect fit. What’s to say about it? 😂
She’s a fine singer, I’m sure you can find some other criticism to use here.
Yeah. I’m not a fan of her. But saying she can’t sing seems a bit ridiculous.
She can’t sing in a way that’s enjoyable to listen to.

Just because a lot of people believe something doesn’t make it true. Millions of people voted for Trump, I guess they were correct?

So what if a couple billion people don’t find it enjoyable? This is a totally plausible possibility btw.

For some perspective, who are some people you consider good singers?
Not the first time I hear a Lemming make some shit up about a singer they dislike.
It’s an opinion. I didn’t make up anything. LOL I actually like her songs and think she’s a great artist, but she cannot sing well. Artist ≠ singer.

Uh, literally? lol…
Oh yeah, definitely someone like her paid to be highly praised by her fans and critics alike. That makes sense.
