right, and... why am I meant to be looking at a dictionary?
I mean it can't be anything to do with your 'a singer isn't a musician' comment, considering that dictionary.com defines singer as a synonym for vocalist, and a vocalist as "A singer, or vocal musician, as opposed to an instrumentalist." |

what exactly are you arguing at this point?
singers aren't musicians in popular music, which is all music except classical music. so where do you stand on primarily vocal groups like the Flying Pickets? They don't have any instruments apart from their voices. Is what they produce 'music' in your eyes? or have you become confused as to what you were arguing, like us? |

How about harmonic interplay between vocals and other instruments? And if it's not music, why does so much popular music revolve around the vox and lyrics and not the "music?" |

it seems that way. Your point is fragmented and makes no sense.
who exactly are you saying isn't a musician? |

i prefer listen to the music over the vocals...vocals do make or brake a band but the truth is most singers out there cant hit a note if their lives depended on it. face facts. pop music vocalists suck. like RA. decent enough band but the vocals leave something to be desired. trapt now they just suck at music and coulnt write a good riff if it killed them. if your strictly going on vocals hitting notes and harmoney is a must.

By the way, it's "harmony."
Seeing as how it's central to your argument, and you seem like you're going to be using it a lot, you might as well know how to spell it. |

also, there are pop music vocalists out there with greater range and power to their voices than the vast majority of opera singers. Listen to someone like Kristy Thirsk or Tori Amos and tell me they don't have technically astonishing voices. Hell, listen to Ruben Studdard and tell me he hasn't got a beautiful rich voice.

Freddie Mercury. Great pop vocalist who had classical/operatic training and a huge vocal range.

her songs 'me and a gun' and 'wampum prayer' are a capella. They are amongst the best things she has ever done. Yes, she is a truly excellent piano player, but she is also a truly, truly EXCELLENT singer. She has an incredible, well trained voice with an astonishing range, tone and quality. THis is not invalidated by the fact that she happens to play the piano. |
