#10: "the usual castrato warbling"

LOL! Hahahaha. There are no baritones any more. They all sing like pubescent girly-men. I think that started with the BeeGees.

No Barry Whites, Dick Haymes, Billy Ekstines, Johnny Hartmans, or Joe Williams.

It’s crazy, they all sound the same. If I read a promotion about a new male singer, I know exactly what he is going to sound like before I hear him sing one note, and I’m always right: A castrato who then goes into showing how high he can sing like it’s an athletic competition. The Bee Gees or Michael Jackson may have had a lot to do with it, but I think it’s more about being conformist. None of them will take chances about being different or maybe it’s the record companies who won’t? I don’t know, but todays music is absolutely unlistenable to me today. The only thing on the radio is either talk radio, maybe one station for classical or jazz and the rest if it is castratos combined with gangsta rap.
