@DavidT8899 I'd say there's less 'girl and guitar' writing than there used to be. Absolutely. But, is it the norm?

Watch this....

@SarahTheHooker now with AI it will take nobody. It's all marketing and who you know. Everyone wants a cut. We don't hear the good stuff. Only the stuff that they let you hear. Some countries only allow certain artists and some works have different songs depending on the country they are marketing in.

@HannahSky I didn't know that,geez!

@HannahSky I saw a couple of shows. Some of the backing, I'd say, was pre-recorded but not the leads.

..and, just in case you think that I'm just a little girl that knows nothing, I've seen Springsteen (with my dad) a handful of times. Can't get much 'liver' than that.

@SarahTheHooker I'm not against her but I saw a video that shows it pretty clearly and it's disappointing.

@ArtieKat Uh,no -,I'm sure that she has plenty of people do to that for her.

@DavidT8899 you should fax them ASAP!

@HobNoblin Although I personally believe that Swift is at least a few notches above what you describe, you're overall point is very valid.Its not necessarily that the talent isn't out there;the record industry has changed in a way that doesn't give it a forum and let it develop the way that it used to.
