New Music vs Old Music

lebanese_a · 07-02-2007

A couple of days ago I was listening to the Radio in the car, I had Light FM on and they were playing a song for Élodie Frégé Called "De l'eau", for those who don't know, Élodie is the winner of star académie France and "De l'eau" is one of her best songs!
Anyways, I think this song is a little monotonous so I switched to Nostalgie and they had Dalida on, they were playing a song that was not really known (not a Dalida hit), but her voice, the way she sang it, the music, well everything was better then the known song for the winner of a music contest!

So that made me think that today best songs are worst then yesterday normal ones!! And that's not only in French music, Is there any voice that can equal Frank Sinatra voice in English songs? Is there any voice that can equal Fayrouz voice in Arabic songs?

Why do you think this is happening? Is it the studios fault or the listeners fault?
Do you know any new voice that can match the voices of the old singers?

Amazing Thread U did bro'

let's talk music...

Actually, the world's problem these dayz is related to its ppl... we chose to lsn to these bullshit... the media, the discoteqs, the studios, the producers... 99% of 'em lost the taste of real music... It's all about earning money... I remember the oldies songs.. the greatest of 'em all... deep meaning, lovely beats, & most importantly.. greatest voices of all time... let's take an e.g. these dayz n back dayz: if i asked u who is the best Egyptian singer of the world today? u may say Amro Diab... but if I asked u who's ur favorite egyptian singer back dayz... u will say Oum Kelthoum, Abdel 7alim... so u c... the world's changed a lot.. from Fayruz to dana ... basicallly, I reached a point where i hated to lsn to arabic music cuz its all the same old same, crap, dancing, money & nonsence...

Old music: the greatest voices ever:

1- Gipsy kings (Bamboleo, Lambada, Volare... ---> the best songs ever)... this band that includes the greatest LATIN singers of all time & Im sure many of u heard his songs when u used 2 be kidz but u don't remember them until u hear 'em... They reached 1 of the top sellin' pop-flamenco into the whole world... the ones who has taste in music will like 'em a lot

2- Boney M (Daddy Cool, Ma Baker, Rasputin, River Of Babylon...etc... best songs) they earned their succes in Europe with their Disco Music

3- Bee Gees (How deep is ur love, Night Fever, Staying Alive, Tragedy, u should be dancing... etc... lovely music)... they were 7 times Grammy Award winners which have been honored as the Songwriters Hall of Fame n Rock & Roll Hall of Fame... they r amazin'

4- Abba (Dancing Queen, Fernando, chikitta, gimme giime gimme money, Lay all ur love on me, Mama mia, Voulez Vous.... etc... i loooove their songs)... this swedish group was one of the best of all time...

still have more to talk about old music, old singers, old bands... like
Kool & the gang: she's fresh so fresh...
Survivors: Eye of the tiger, in the burning heart...
Culture beat: Mr. Vain...
Dan Harrow: Catch The Fox...
C C Catch: Cuz u r young...
Sting: desert Rose, send ur love...
America: Horse With No Name, Ventura Highway...
Dalida: salma ya salama, aghani aghani...
Adriano Celentano: I want to know...
Bon Jovi: It's my life, Bed of rose, Undivided
Mickael Jackson: Billie Jean, thriller, they dun care about us...

still more to hear n to talk about

as for the new music, u can still find 1% of the best singers

New Music: Just hear it out:

Linkin Park: 2 different styles merged into one gender to form a different kind of music (Rock n Rap) most famous songs ever: In the end, crawling, numb, faint, somewhere i belong, Hit the floor, What I've Done, With you....

Evanescence: one of the greatest bands, reached the top through bring me to life, going under, my immortal (the rock version mostly), Everybody's Fool, Lies, The Only One, Lithium...

Celine Dion: It's kinda old & new music...I believe in you, Et S'il n'en restait qu'une, You and, My heart will go on (the famous titanic Soundtrack which was the best one ever...) One Heart, I Drove all night, Goodbye's (The Saddest World)... Celine Dion... were real soft music starts...

Saliva: let's rock on with some of his deep lyrics extremely amazing which were expressed by his loud voice... I walk alone, ladies n gentlemen...

peace

like u said lebanese_a , those days we don't use our ears in music cz we don't found a perfect voice or a such good music and performance , so we use only our eyes to see dance and short skirts new look and all for fashion ..
And the music is going from worst to worst , cz everyone doesn't have a work or is bored in his house take the mic up on the stage and sing a song with a very attractive costum and some plastic surgery so moustawa l songss 0 w akid ma fi 7ada bi moustawa fayrouz w majida l roumi w wadi3 l safi w enrique iglecias w gheyron

FriendOfZeus · 05-21-2008

When it comes to arabic, recent music is shite compared to the classics.
I just need to mention Sabah Fakhri, Karem Mahmoud, Melhem Barakat, Al Cheikh Imam, Feyruz...etc etc, its illogical to compare to knowadays artists...thats why they are called "3amalikat al madi".
