I post this every few years. Three Moldovan homosexuals dancing on the wing of an airplane.
Dear God, the Moldovan guy who founded the homosexual group, Dan Balan, went to Uganda (amusingly one of the most anti-homosexual places on Earth) and redid it. I love it, although I think I still like the original more. Still, Africans bring a joy to everything that stodgy Moldovans could never match.
To me, Karen Carpenter has one of the best female singing voices ever. I don‘t think it‘s racist, but no black singer I‘ve ever heard, maybe with exception of Whitney Houston, get‘s even close to her, due to some typical differences in their voices (no clue what exactly that is, but it‘s usually clearly to hear if the singer is black (at least when it comes to African Americans). The voice of Karen or any good white singer might not be as rich or however you describe her/their vocal characteristics, but her/their voice (to my ears) sounds like an angel. Simple but pure, innocent and sensitive.
Karen Carpenter was brilliant but Whitney had a far better voice imho. Pity she succumbed to drugs. Karen Carpenter succumbed to anorexia if I recall correctly. You have to be at least a little dysfunctional to seek fame, it seems.
yay carpenters! beautiful
lol whitney!? she couldnt even sing, she just screamed
Vile Dutch 80’s pop listening savage. Listen to One Moment In Time above starting around 3:25. I have never heard a singer whose voice totally dominates an orchestra like hers. What a gift she had, and what a gift she threw away.
only mariah carey has a worse “singing voice” lol
Yes, she became a repulsive junkie. I know. Before that, she reached heights nobody here ever will. She was also breathtakingly beautiful to my eyes.
yes… heights in awful sounding! lol
As I said, Whitney is an exception to what I said about African American singers. But her voice isn‘t as pure as Karen’s.
yes i agree… most african american singers can sing
Well, I don’t agree, but just to address your earlier point, I don’t consider it racist at all to observe you don’t find the voices of black singers as appealing. That’s just personal taste.
Interestingly, I loved Karen Carpenter as a kid and I loved Whitney as a young adult. Today, I can go back and listen to Whitney all day long, but I can’t listen to Karen Carpenter anymore. She just doesn’t move me the way she did when I was 10. People change.
Sometimes at least. But she had a beautiful voice also when singing calmly or even in a normal volume. Her voice also wasn’t as rich as other Black/Brown singers, which is the reason I like her voice.
uhm no, as soon as she opened her mouth it hurt my ears!
Now you two euroweenies have me listening to black female singers, something I’m not generally fond of doing but I’m getting into it tonight.
much better! 
They come over as whites throughout most of the song, due to their light voices, lol. I like that song. Great music too.
I have no idea what you mean by that, but that song is one of the most iconic symbols of the black music of Motown. I’m not sure any song represents black American culture of that time period more than that one. I vastly prefer it to modern black music. If modern black music even exists. Everything is now racially mixed, come to think of it.
screaming can be beautiful (when its not done by whitney):
i have to see that movie again!
