The Difference Between Female Musicians From This Decade And Past Decades

By Marylou Forbes


There have been female singers for as far back as anyone can remember. Things have changed quite a bit since the times when women like June Carter Cash was singing. Female musicians today are more like performers than singers. The spend most of their time on stage shaking their butts instead of 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.

When these young girls that call themselves singers or musicians get on stage and shake their breast and butts all over the place to get attention it is just degrading. You might think I just do not get the new dances but I am not so old that I don't get the new dance crazes. You can do these dance without looking like a stripper.

I admit I am a little old fashioned about clothes. I believe that you shouldn't leave your house dressed in shorts that show your butt cheeks and I certainly do not believe you should wear something like that on a stage with thousands of people looking at you.

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 happened to the days when a singer would walk out on stage wearing respectable clothes and sing a song with a wonderful voice? Some of the stars that did just that were Dolly Parton, Carly Simon, Stevie Nicks, and Aretha Franklin and they did it with dignity and clothes on.

They never did vulgar dance moves or wore clothes that revealed more than anyone but your spouse should see. The singers today have wonderful voices but you do not even realize it because you are to focused on what they are wearing or what vulgar moves they are doing in their routine. Each decade the clothes get skimpier and the dances get 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.
