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.

There are female singers that actually sing and don't act the way some of the others act. There are female singers like Taylor Swift who has an amazing voice and is also graceful and classy. Carrie Underwood is also spectacular and has the voice of an angel. She is able to keep her dignity and her clothes on while performing because everyone is amazed by her voice.

These girls that get up on stage half dressed shaking their butt and breast are only doing it to get attention. Now you may think that I am an old person that just doesn't get the new dances. I'm not old and I do understand the dances. You can do these new dances without looking like a prostitute.

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 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.

It doesn't have to be that way. If you are a famous singer you got signed because you have a wonderful voice so why not use that voice to win over fans instead of stripping down to barely nothing and simulating sex on stage. I get that most dances these days are a bit nasty for lack of a better word but you can do the popular dances without degrading yourself and your parents. What must these parents be thinking of their little girls up on stage showing off all of their body and shaking parts of their body that shouldn't be shook in public?
