POP MUSIC 2013: does your fav even have a #1 hit?

[Kreis]

That still doesn't make sense to me though, to use your furnature analogy, it's like throwing a table away and then buying exactly the same one later that day. There's absolutely no difference between this thread and the last, and given genres are ever evolving topics of discussion, a point highlighted with genre threads being exempt from the no bumping after x amount of days rule, there's never not something to discuss, and the very nature of the thread accomodates people dipping in and out. It just seems a lot of effort to go to for no logical reason. Unless I'm missing something, are there any benefits to duplicating the thread?

Like ke$ha said, it's just to keep the thread fresh. That's all there is to it. There wasn't a lot of effort put into making this thread, either. 5 minutes, tops. I'm very sorry that having threads being remade troubles you.
:u

Anyway, go back to discussing pop music.

Talking about Ke$ha I hope that either Crazy Kids or Supernatural get released after C'mon, she needs a big hit ASAP.

My girl Kelly Clarkson just blew everyone away at the president's inauguration:




And Beyonce didn't disappoint either:

i don't need to watch the video because i saw it live #obama #ObnoxiousTwitterReferencing

someone not as lazy as me should also post Beyonce's amazing rendition of the national anthem. i felt hints of whitney's memorable version in this one, specifically the falsetto at "land of the free", which she could've done even higher pitched but i guess she refrained herself to avoid taking away from Obama's celebration, and the way she broke down "of the brave" at the end. kelly did good, too

I included Beyonce's video in my post, too. For some reason vBulletin doesn't let you show two videos at once, so I had just included Bey's video as a link.

I love how Kelly never disappoints with her vocals.

yeah, i also learned that the hard way once, but I'll do it for you



and because i love Beyonce

[Silent Conversation]

Considering we refer to it so often, I thought it would be worth mentioning that this Saturday, Billboard is revamping its website to give it a slicker design and a bunch of new features, most notably the ability to directly play songs from the chart through streaming services, or just play an entire chart as a playlist. There will also be a fan rating system and much more detailed artist pages, including a Top 100 artist timeline. So for chart-obsessed people like me or people who love seeing the stats of the artists they love, this should be a really nice upgrade.

Beyonce's performance of the anthem was nice. I've never really thought too much of her, but I like her quite a bit and this did nothing to change that. But oh my god, Kelly was phenomenal... totally surpassed my expectations.

[HoennMaster]

Beyonce was of course good, but I was far from blown away. But I agree, Kelly....OMG Kelly just blew that song out of the water. Beautiful and amazing.

According to CNN Beyoncé lipped her performance

Looks like CNN wants all the praise to head Kelly's way. I don't blame them, Kelly's vocals are pretty ferocious.



I'm hoping she at least wins 1 grammy this year. Her Stronger era has been doing pretty well.

Kelly is so overrated here, its unreal.

[Ke$ha]

I really luv Kellys vocals and Im glad she sang live. Im just upset with Beyonce cuz shes lip synced before and I wanted her to sing live at the inauguration to impress everybody but what are u gonna do. Hope fully this wont affect her new album

It's okay, I'm threatened by Kelly's vocals, too.

Cool it girl, I'm just venting about how universally loved she is here, despite the fact she gets her income off of remaking Since U Been Gone every few years and calling it an album. P!nk is in a similar position. The performance was cute, but if she wins any Grammy's against Florence or Carly we'll have an issue.

Why would I be threatened by Belly Clarkson anyway?

lmao. Aren't most pop artists the same way? It's a smart thing to do, they stick to what sells. For her third album she tried steering away from her formulaic sound from her previous records, and look how that turned out in terms of sales. Her best album, but lackluster sales. As a lot of you say in this thread, she still "slays."

[Popboi]

Her singles sales?

According to CNN Beyoncé lipped her performance

Anderson Cooper just went into some tirade about how he's positive she didn't lipsync the performance so idek.

[Kreis]

I'm not sure she if she did or not, but if she did, I have to say I'm disappointed. I don't get why some fantastic vocalists choose to lip synch instead of performing live. She has the vocal talent, so I really don't get why she'd do that for.
