Music or noise pollution?

Nowadays artists.. Ooops, I mean singers… No, one can’t even call them singers.. Ok, let’s call them pseudo-singers. What do they do? Or better: What can they afford?
Most of them were rescued thanks to the great invention called video clips. Why? Because you don’t have to sing any more but just have a great body and if you don’t you get some chicks, let them ‘dance’ and there you go with millions of dollars.
Starting from Kylie Minogue, Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake to Fergie, 50 Cent and Paris Hilton.. They are ‘not exactly using their voice’ to get famous..
And then people wonder why I don’t watch music channels any more…
You may listen to their songs because of the beat or maybe it gets you in a dancing mood but after a couple of days/weeks you find yourself listening to something/someone else.
So, what can we say about most of the pseudo-singers we have right now? It’s rubbish what they’re presenting. In other words: Noise pollution.

Now a nice comparison..
If you listen to the songs of cartoons like “The Little Mermaid”, “Thumbelina” or “The Prince of Egypt” you’ll just get fascinated by the songs and the voices. The composers and the singers of the soundtracks are really admirable.
So, in movies, especially cartoons you get to hear better music than the rubbish which the music channels offers you.

Here you go with: “The Little Mermaid – Part Of Your World”

And now compare it with the one by Jessica Simpson (she ruined the song): (I really wonder what she was doing while singing.. Running amok?!)

Mi Tierra - Gloria Estefan

Quality of sound isn't perfect but that's the most "modest" video I could find.. So, whoever likes latin music: enjoy! =)

Corazon de nino - Raul Di Blasio

I just love and admire Raul Di Blasio. His songs (usually instrumental things) are just incredible!!!
Couldn't find one where he's playing himself but the boy who is playing is really good too.. Only the first 3 minutes are important. The rest is Spanish (I think) and I have to admit that I have no idea what they're saying! =D
So, listen and enjoy! :)

"I Don't Know How to Love Him" by Andrew Lloyd Webber

In 8th grade everyone had to pick up a song and sing it infront of the whole class.. I chose this one and got an A then. =)
I just love the melody. This version is pretty good. So, enjoy! :)

Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You - Engelbert Humperdinck

I just love this song! I don't know if it's the music or the lyrics.. I think mainly the music!
That was the best video I could find although I'm used to the one by Tony Bennett and others.
Anyway, listen and enjoy! =)

Suddenly I see - KT Tunstall

After watching the movie ''The Devil wears Prada'' I searched for the song in the beginning of the movie and found it. I really like it so I hope you will too. =)

Love always finds a reason - Glenn Medeiros

Sometimes I think of me and you
And every now and then I think we'll never make it through
We go through some crazy times
And there are times I wonder if I'll keep loving you
But I always do

Seems that love always finds a reason to keep me here
Believin' when I feel our love is slipping away
Seems that love always finds a reason to make me stay
And even through the darkest night the feeling survives
Seems that I can just look at you and I find the reason in your eyes

I know sometimes you wish that you were free
I know sometimes you wonder what you're doing here with me
But something keeps you by my side through everything
Through all the times we disagree you keep loving me

Seems that love always a reason to keep me here
Believin' when we feel our love is slipping away
And it seems that love always finds a reason to make me stay
And even through the darkest night the feeling survives
And you know when you look at me you'll find the reason in my eyes

Love always finds a reason to keep us here
Believin' when we feel our love is slipping away
Aren't you glad that love always finds a reason to make us stay
And even through the darkest night the feeling survives

Oho, love always finds a reason to keep me here
Believin' when I feel our love is slipping away
Seems that love always finds a reason to make us stay
And even through the darkest night the feeling survives
And you know when you look at me you'll find the reason in my eyes

I find the reason
I find the reason, oho
I found the reason in your eyes

After watching it on YouTube and I just had to post it. This video is about Ranma and Akane (protagonists of Ranma 1/2) and I just loved the song and the way the whole thing was depicted!
That is what I call cute!!!

Concrete Angel - Martina McBride

(First press play then pause and leave it until it has finished loading, so it doesn't buffer and you can really enjoy it.)

She walks to school with a lunch she packed,
Nobody knows what she's holding back;
Wearing the same dress she wore yesterday,
She hides the bruises with the linen and lace;
oh

The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask,
It's hard to see the pain behind the mask;
Bearing the burdon of a secret storm,
Sometimes she wishes she was never born;

Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

Concrete Angel

Somebody cries in the middle of the night,
The neighbors hear but they turn out the lights;
A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate,
When morning comes it will be too late.

Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

Concrete Angel

A statue stands in a shaded place,
An angel girl with an upturned face;
Her name is written on a polished rock,
A broken heart that the world forgot.

Through the wind and the rain,
She stands hard as a stone in a world that she can't rise above;
But her dreams give her wings and she flies to a place where she's loved.

Concrete Angel

Well, this song reminded me of the year 2000.. But that girl was luckier because she had a grandmother who has the ability to replace a whole family. :)
