Female Musicians From Past Decades And This Decade

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 to avoid the subject of Miley Cyrus but I just have to bring her up in this article. Miley has a great voice, great songs, she's got a really good personality from what I can tell and she's beautiful. So with all that going for her why is she constantly degrading herself on and off stage with her outrageous antics and her barely there clothes?

What happened to simply going on stage dressed appropriately and singing a good song with a great voice. You do not have to have trashy dancing and even trashier clothes to be seen. Aretha Franklin, Dolly Parton, Stevie Nicks and Carly Simon all did it without being trashy and became quite famous because of it.

These women didn't do vulgar dances or wear trashy clothing that revealed more than any woman should reveal to anyone but their husband. Female singers today have great voices but it is hard to notice it because of all the nakedness and vulgar dance moves they use in their acts. Every ten years or so the dances get dirtier and the clothes just disappear.

These women do not have to do things this way to be famous. These woman are famous because of their voices not because they take off most of their clothes. The voice is what wins over the fans, not them getting on stage simulating sex acts. I understand that dances these days are a bit dirty but you can do these dances without looking like a stripper. I can only imagine what the parents of these singers must be thinking and feeling.
