Female Musicians From Past Decades And This Decade

By Marylou Forbes


Female singers have been around for hundreds of years. There have been many changes since the time of June Carter Cash. Female musicians these days are mostly just performing instead of singing. These female singers spend their time on stage shaking their derriere more than they do actually singing.

Not all female singers behave this way. There are singers like Carrie Underwood and Taylor Swift who have amazing voices and use those voices to attract fans. They have grace and class and you can see that when they are on stage. These young woman have such amazing voices that they do not have to take off their clothes to get attention.

The female singers that get on stage with barely any clothes on just to shake their butts just do it because they want all the attention n them. Some of you might think that I must be old and just don't get the new dances but I'm not old and I do understand the way people dance these days. However, you can dance these dances with out having to look like your stripping.

I am a bit old fashion when it comes to clothes. I do not believe that you should go on stage in front of thousands of people in a bikini top and shorts that show your butt cheeks. In fact I don't believe you should walk out your door wearing that unless your headed to the beach or a pool.

I have tried for most of this article to avoid the Miley Cyrus topic but I just can not avoid it any longer. That girl has got a wonderful voice, great songs, and from what I can tell a great personality. So why is she degrading herself on stage and off with her antics and her clothes?

What ever happened to just going on stage and singing a great song with a beautiful voice without all the trashy clothes and dirty dancing. Dolly Parton did it and she was a star, Aretha Franklin, Carly Simon, Stevie Nicks all these women were stars and completely dressed while performing.

These women didn't do vulgar dance moves and they wore clothes that didn't reveal too much. These female singers today have voices just as great as the older generation but you just don't realize it since all you can concentrate on is what they are wearing or not wearing in most cases. You are also distracted from their voices by the vulgar dance moves they do in their routines. Every decade the clothes get just a little more skimpy and the dances get a little more vulgar.

These female singers don't have to act this way to get attention. They are famous because someone realized they had a great voice and so they signed them. These women can win over their fans with just their voice they don't have to strip down to their underwear and dance so vulgarly that I wouldn't want my child watching. I understand that dances these days are a bit dirty but they take it a bit too far. The parents of these singers must be so humiliated I know I would be.
