Think the problem with modern singers is many didn't start their careers from the smokey clubs & pubs. A lot of them are taken from dance and entertainment troupe or come up from talent shows.
That's just my theory.
it´s true but only a few not much like 6 or 7 in all the world are from talent shows(also doesn´t mean they become sucessfull) ,
all others (hundreds of them)do it like it was done ever, by playing concerts indoors or outdoors ,
here in Portugal in the 80´s EMI only recorded a few bands that were listened by many from north to south of the country sometimes with changes on the group menbers as they were well known for at least 10 years,
and when releasing a record for a major label, everybody is sick of hearing those songs, as an example a band that started in 78 only got his first big released album in 87 and the three first albums were songs that all were tired of listening to them ,and with worst sound than the cassette demos they sold in concerts
and the people responsable to only sign 5 bands in 30 years leaving behind dozens of sucessfull bands that younger generations never heard for the fact that no Lp was released allthough they filled everywhere they went indoors rooms or outdoors, to show their songs in concerts
this person a brainless man (refering to EMI) is refered as the responsable for releasing all famous bands in 30 years but only 3, the other two were in diferent labels , some did recorded Lp´s but in diferent european countries ,it´s sad ,what can one say about this
