华人圈不小哦。她还有唱粤语日语嘛。哪一个regional singer能有王菲的市场穿透度
,做regional比绝大多数international的还曳。中国百姓也不是愚民。只是没那么多
好歌手和作品罢了。
Well, as I said, while Wong is still the most popular musician on the
Chinese pop scene, she is not necessary the best. Her only song I like is "
Sky" from her 1994 album, in which she was not even named Wong Faye. For
the rest of her cds, her voice is always barely audible and the band seem to
be much better than her singing, which is a shame to any vocal artist.
MJ不作童星也就80年代中后期称得上king。也就是因为案子争议多,死得早和意外才影
响这么大。试想Madonna,Celine Dion,Dave Matthews,Mariah Carey,Paul McCartney
of the Beatles,Mick Jagger of the Stones,Barbra Streisand,Billy Joe,Bob
Marley,Bryan Adams,Bob Dylan,Bruce Springsteen,David Bowie,...哪个不是legend
?意外死亡了不也是震撼?还好多数都数不完。MJ唱片是多,但他出道早。90年以后的
销量一个不如一个。以至于自己倒贴。现在又一帮人像麦姐出道晚唱片比他少一点但是
多活些年头未必赶MJ不过。
I disagree. Many artist you mentioned are rock musicians, which belongs to a
different category. Bob Dylan, Beetles are legendary rockers in the 60s.
Madonna is just trash. The rest of the artists are very good one way or the
other, but I seriously doubt people like Barbara Streisand can stir the same
level of excitement as MJ.
It is not true that MJ became famous because of his law suites or his death.
Before his death, his 50 concerts are all sold out. Tell me anyone else,
including Madonna, even stripped to skin, can do the same.
BTW, I am not a big MJ fan, but to be fair, this guy is much more talented
than his peers.
