Music Artist

The best selling musical artists of all time is topped by 1. The Beatles, 2. Elvis Presley, 3. Michael Jackson. The list goes on and they all sang in English. Who is the world’s top selling non-English music artist? What language did he or she sing in?
Shakira, Julio Iglesias, Gloria Estefan have all outsold Vicente Fernandez.

Vincente Fernandez – Spanish language

I want to be a music artist for Rock/Metal/Rap all together, but i have bad memory for lyrics, i know how some real artist use a note pad with lyrics in the studio, which is what i would have to do. I want to just be a studio artist without getting offers to go on stage. Would i have to avoid signing and use my own equipment to record albums? Or is there a company i could sign with that would allow me to stay in the recording studios?

make your own home studio, from what I’ve read they’re pretty well affordable now, then whatever you make you can sell on itunes I guess. This isn’t a way to make a living doing music though, artists that live off music have to tour all year round.

I like Adele, Michael Buble, Lights, and Ellie Goulding. I enjoy a few songs from Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, as well as Taylor Swift. I don’t enjoy rap music much, or really stupid electro-pop music (such as LMFAO and Ke$ha) I don’t like too much country music either, just some of it. If you can recommend some other artists to me, that would be excellent. 10 points for best answer!

radical face, ed sheeran, death cab for cutie, the narrative, lana del rey, yellowcard, lena meyer-landrut, skylar grey, the verve, oasis, plain whit t’s, the naked and famous, bombay bicycle club, our lady peace, we the kings, aimee allen, alex day, anna nalick, amy winehouse, the band perry, the black keys, phantom planet, the cab, coldplay, joe brooks, kate voegle, kira isabella, lenka, lilly allen, mikill pane, mirah, one republic.. i could go on

I know some people who know one or two songs from an established artist, but yet they are their favorite artist. Obviously it is different if they only have one or two songs out.

I consider myself a fan of an artist when I like at least three to five of their songs.

I can like an artist, but I don’t consider them my absolute favorite until I know more songs.

What about you?

BQ:Ritchie Blackmore

Not who you LIKE THE BEST!

But who do you think is the biggest music artist right now and why. Make a list if you can’t pick just one.

I’d say Lady Gaga, Rihana or however you spell her name, Justin Bieber, Usher, Matt Cardle cause he out-sold all top five artists put together for xmas number 1, and Katy Perry. But I actually don’t like them. Marina and the Diamonds is by far the best artist that has ever lived. <3

Who are some Japanese artists/bands that make J-pop techno music that sounds similar to Kotoko?

Several – do a search on YouTube or amazon.jp

I saw this video about 2 years ago so it’s very vague to me.

The video has a female singer who I think sang country music. She looked like Carrie Underwood, but I don’t remember if it was her exactly. I also think she was wearing an bright orange skirt.

At the beginning of the music video, she walks off the beach to a very busy beach pier, then at the end of the video, it pans out when she reaches the end of the pier.

Does anyone know what song or artist this is? Thanks for reading!

Could it be That Song in My Head by Julianne Hough?

I want to start getting into classical music but I know nothing about it (the popular people in it or what ever)
What are some good composers or artists?

There will be some large differences of opinion on both questions. Here are some of my favorite composers and artists (artists are only currently-active artists).

Composers: Mozart, Bach, Haydn, Beethoven, Chopin, Brahms, Dvorak

Pianists: Mitsuko Uchida, Angela Hewitt, Emanuel Ax
Conductors: James Levine, Riccardo Muti
Violinists: Pinchas Zuckerman, Itzhak Perlman

Happy listening!

It wasn’t for his music but hers. Also while she sang she played a stripper and he was watching her. The song was something about liking bad boys. Can’t find any info on it anywhere on the web. Only a big fan would have know about it since his name was nowhere on the video itself.

Could it possibly be Loleatta Holloway from the song Good Vibrations
I hope this helped! This is the only one I can thinks of. Good luck!

I thought music artists were meant to be anti establishment and for the people? Does this mean the message in their music is promoting the establishment?

Because Obama is the best thing that has ever happened to the USA.
