So just because you have the opinion that a song is bad means the singer is also, by default, bad. Dumbest thing I've read in a long time.

I already know what the comeback is going to be about what I'm gonna say next.

Maria Carey has the longest running number 1 song in US chart history. She's sold 200 million albums worldwide. She signed the largest recording contract of all time, $100 million. She's had more #1 hits (18) than any other solo artist ever. She's won 5 Grammys, 19 World Music Awards, 11 American Music Awards, and 14 Billboard Music Awards. She's in the Guinness Book of World Records for her vocal range. She has 12 RIAA certified platinum albums and 2 diamond albums.

Point being a whole lotta people worldwide like her songs and have for almost 30 years. So in the grand scheme of things the fact that a few of you folks here think she's a bad singer with bad songs is, and of course your entitled opinion, kinda dumb.

I find her unlistenable and awful. But my opinion is dumb just because she's popular?

People like bad music in droves.

As far as the cubism thing goes yes I can only decide for myself that it's bad. That's true.

Everyone else in the world can love Mariah Carey. I still KNOW she sucks.

And their it is.

What is dumb is that saying because you don't like a song it automatically makes the singer bad.

No my opinion is dumb because I actually hold her to the minimum standard of singing good songs.

Their vocal abilities? The quality of their voice? Their control of dynamics? Their ability to emote?

Carey has released over a hundred songs. Have you heard them all? Have you heard her entire unplugged performance? What are you basing your "she sucks" opinion on? A few things you've heard on the radio?

Yeah I'll get right on that after I finish going through the entire discographies of Evan Parker and Anthony Braxton.

But I don't like her as a singer. I think she's bad.

You mean those same people who put your band out of business? I guess that means you're a ****ty guitarist.
