Beautiful Song And Singer
I wish we could go back to the days of beautiful songs and beautiful singers like this. Can you imagine any of today's singers appearing on TV with no make-up?!

Funnily enough, I was sitting in a hotel shuttle bus in South Africa yesterday and the radio was playing Lou Rawles (You`ll never find etc). I remembered that song from the long hot summer of 1976 and I was trying to think of other songs from that time. The Dorothy Moore one was one of the best from those days (along with Candy Statton) A fantastic song - takes you right back, doesn`t it?
>>>>Can't see many of todays songs still doing the rounds in 30-40 years time!
Of course they will.
They probably said the same about Frank Sinatra in the 40s, Elvis Presley in the 50s and the Beatles in the 60s.
Music is still being played from those eras and music from this era will be played in 30 years time.

I remember my grandparents said that to me 40 years ago when I was listening to Candi Staton, Lou Rawls, Dorothy Moore....
I think music is more a disposable commodity these days but I still think some of today's songs will still be remembered in 30 years time as everyone remember songs from their teenage years. I am convinced that in 30-40 years some 50-60 year men and women will leap around the dancefloor at weddings when Mr Brightside comes on.
I hope I'm still around in 30-40 years to see if people still remember some of the great music that's still around now.

Thanks to everyone for your answers. I feel that today's singers can't be natural or who maybe they'd like to be as they're too manufactured. In the 70s, singers were able to go on TV without make-up, wearing what they wanted to wear and be who they wanted to be, and we loved them for it. Would the Pogues get groomed within an inch of their lives these days? I preferred Cher with her crooked teeth, all her ribs and her funny face. I hate perfection! Can we go back to loving people for who they are, warts and all :-)
Make up didn't do Alice Cooper and The Sweet any harm in the 70s, though Marjin, and there were manufactured groups in the 60s and 70s, but overall I agree that image is more important now.Image is still not everything, and there are still some very talented artists who are successful without being made up or relying on TV coverage.
