When GREAT singers keep their chops!
-
I am stunned at how fantastic Chaka Khan has been looking lately! I hate to say it: But she looks even better at (almost) 60 than Tina Turner did at her sixth decade! And that's sayin' somethin'! She'd ALWAYS kept her chops in tact, but she really, really sounds vocally limber here. Chaka Khan - Ain't Nobody (live @ Concord Pavilion 5-27-2012):
-
One for the old queens like me...she's in her 60s and STILL a powerhouse vocalist: Jocelyn Brown - Somebody Else's Guy (live @ London 2012):
-
When The Wall Tour came to town last year, I should not have let the opportunity slip away. From what I can tell, it's an amazing show. still kicking myself in the butt for not coughing up the dough to go see it. Rodger Waters has taken good care of his pipes as many of you saw during the 12/12/12 concert.

WixRocks!:
How could I forget!?! This man's voice has gotten BETTER over time if you ask me... Roger Hodgson (of Supertramp)- Dreamer

The Big O kept that fantastic voice until he died.
-
It may be too obvious but Barbra Just like Roger Hodgson or Roy Orbison borders perfect technique so the voice is still the same, and so Olivia Newton John It seems like a impossible thing Barbra at... 70! People
The Way We Weeeeeeeeeeeeeere.... It seems like they got on the stage out of a time machine or so.and Olivia at 64! Hopelessly Devoted to you....
-
And then there's Melba Moore who sings the HIGHEST notes better and easier than ever.... and than anyone, probably... 67! 8.25!
-
I don't think anyone has mentioned Dave Grohl. He still has a clear, strong voice...and we should all know since he and Paul are collaborating so much lately.
Just thought I'd mention ol'Dave.

There's an obscure rock/pop singer from the 70's who I think was in a band called Wings that's quite good, can't quite remember his name though.

now if anyone could tell me why do I sound like Dolly Parton if I change my voice to "female" with software.... Am I some kind of male sex bomb or is it my subconscious showing what I'm attracted to?No, If I was gay my chances will be higher cause men are easier, you know... yes, it's true. But, hey what's "gay" about what I've posted? Barbra Streisand? I'll get some "wikihelp"... I see Barbra is some kind of gay icon or so. I had no idea. So I say I like Freddie or Elton there's nothing gay about it, but if like Barbra is? strange logic.
I'm gonna fix it right now. Dooooooollly Parton.... now don't tell me she's a gay icon too or so...
:
Dolly singing... Stairway To Heaven! at 65 And this is 9 to 5/I Will Always Love You at 65 too I hope nobody thinks "she's covering Withney Houston"...

If you also like Cher, we will know you are gay!
-
What about Madonna, i've been listening to her loads recently and trying to sing the words to Vogue and Express Yourself!

fail lol I don't like Cher at all.... I don't like her singing... I guess I don't have to question my sexuality now...
I still must solve the mystery of me sounding like Dolly Parton if I was female. Maybe I would have looked as Dolly Parton if I would have been a woman. lol I guess I'll research like who would some male singers sound if they were women.
