Hehehe...
Most PoP stars are like a "packaged deal".
It's up to the production label to dictate how the star is gonna look, sing and act, even if the star does not have that kind of capability. So to make it as picture perfect as possible, the producers "package" the rest of the stuffs, the pop star just lend a 'face' for the camera.
Yes, there are pop stars who are really good, and all have that X factor. But rarely are they allowed to review their real talents.
Just like Faye Wong, who have to do evergreen covers & pop diddlies to get real famous, but her backgorund is actually in the alternative range.
And Yeah there are a lot of Pop singers who just plain cannot sing at all. Just a pretty face to grace the cover. They do hundreds of take, cut and paste, effects add in, high level post editing to give you that album. You can even tell if some of them don't even know how to use a microphone properly (Yeah, using a microphone is a skill too)
Most real singers are in the background working hard to make a living and some bar or clubs, but if you hear, you can instantly recognise one. Cause when their voice goes through the PA, you can feel the warmth and soul in the singing.
THAT'S LIVE MUSIC BABY!!!! :smt034

Anything to do with high profile performances in SG or probably anywhere in the US (as witnessed) will be proceeded with overdubs. Kiasu what...What else is there to say?

by the way.. i notice milkeman likes to type long post!
:lol: :lol: I got like too much time on my hand......haha...
Just kidding, I reply only at my workplace. But it gives me some time to take my mind off work a while. So when I go back to work, the mind is like a little fresher.
Actually I'm those who have little free time, since I'm self employed. Gotta to make the mullaa to pay the tullaa. :wink:
The worst offenders are all the Mediacorp artistes starting with Fann Wong. All of them lip sync at every major event, because it's safer for them to keep in pitch, and not forget their lyrics and cheaper for the producers without having to use a band.
I thought they should at least use a minus one and let them sing live.
But their fans are such that they don't really care if they go off pitch. It's just blind adoration. Maybe the artiste should just stick to acting and leave the singing to the pros.
