Let me break this down for you. It's not stupid to not like him. It is stupid to think he can't sing.

THERE IT IS!!!!

Thank you!

I don't share your opinion about what you like, so I'm stupid.

You must be really popular at parties.

I don't think he has a good voice. How is that wrong? Because it's a voice you find lovely?

Thousands of people that go on American Idol think they have the world's greatest singing voice too.

Does that mean they all should win?

Or should we just ask you since you seem to be the LONE authority on what makes a good voice?

Not liking his voice is totally different from thinking he can't sing.

I really don't understand how you can't grasp this concept.

It's only intense because I can't stand to see anyone blasted for what their opinion is....

I may think a vacation in the mountains is the cat's pajamas, but someone else may like a week at the beach.

Who's right?

Apparently, whatever Theogt likes.

You still don't get that's it's not about "liking the music."

Why not?

Technically he can sing....I mean, my four-year old can. My 8 year-old can.

Doesn't mean they sing well.

Same with Prince.....He technically can make his voice vibrate with what we call music, but he doesn't do it well....IN MY OPINION!

I don't understand why you can't understand the concept of someone having a differing opinion/taste than yours.

You have no clue what 'technically' means in regards to music, and you just keep on proving it.

Whatever......

I don't think he has talent.....I don't think he has talent...I don't think he has talent....I don't think he has talent.

I also hate to listen to him.

I don't understand.....

Maybe you just don't know how to explain it to me.....

Well, I haven't even tried to explain the difference. I was just pointing out the distinction and hoping you were quick enough to catch on.

Prince is technically an amazing muscian. He can play 15-20 instruments flawlessly. He has the technique, you dont like him. Thats your lesson for today.

I am not a Prince fan but everytime I have seen him play live he smokes on guitar, I mean he needs to make guitar rock music

You just refuse to even read the fact that I've stated numerous times that I think he can't sing well, and I don't like to listen to people that can't sing.

Why do you refuse to understand that someone else can have a differing opinion on what good music is? on what makes good talent?

I don't think he's anything special...He doesn't do anything on a guitar that I haven't heard before. His voice is very ordinary.

He lacks great talent....therefore, I choose to think he's a bad artist.

It's merely an opinion.

Don't feel threatened that I can't appreciate what you appreciate.

If you still think I don't understand what you're saying......I don't really care.

Let me just say this.....

I don't like Prince.

I don't like his voice.

I don't think he has talent.

I don't like to listen to him.

If you like him fine.

Just don't put any of his songs on my harddrive....

Thank you.

This might help you:

There are musicians that aren't great singers yet I like their music. There are also musicians that are great singers, yet I don't like their music.

Maybe that helps.

If you think Prince is not a talented musician, I think you're either deaf or an idiot. His talent reaches a level where one can say objectively that he's clearly talented.

Sure, he can play the instruments....I've said as much. He just doesn't do anything on them that I haven't heard before.

I don't think he can sing.

I don't think he has talent with his voice.

Therefore, I think he's a bad artist.

My opinion.

You don't have to like it.

Facts are statements that can be verified.
Opinions are statements that communicate feeling.

You, and many others share the same opinion.

I don't.

I challenge you with this....

Prove that Prince is a talented singer.

Prove it to me.
