Grow up.

Do you think that the Big Band Genre is limited to instruments??? You
are a bit correct when you link him to the jazz stylizing, though.
Here, some education for you, CLEARLY listing Buble, and Connick in the
big band genre!:
http://www2.apra.com.au/BulletinBoar...9f821e 02294d

Which, the title says: New Release - Big Band Genre (Buble/ Harry
Connick style)


Iit took you two days to find a site that had all those words
together?

No, about 2 seconds.

Did you even read the site?
Yes, did you?
It's an announcement for a
release of some Big Band Genre *sheet music*, note there's no mention
of LYRICS, and it's in, parenthetically, the Connick/Buble STYLE.
Someone is peddling some sheet music arranged for a Big Band, and is
using two big names to advertise it. He's hoping people will think it
might sound similar to the music to which Connick and Buble apply
their crooning skills. Do you understand, or are you stupid?


Crooner is the genre that Sinatra, Connick and Buble belong to.


Cite?


That
style originated in the big band era, and the crooners were typically
backed up by a big band, but not always. In the end, Buble is
definitely not "big band", he's a crooner. From Wikipedia:

"However, crooners have not completely disappeared, with contemporary
performers such as Tony Bennett, Harry Connick Jr., Michael Bublé, and
Rod Stewart keeping the form alive."


There's NO SUCH THING as a "crooner genre"!!!!


You're kidding, right? That's a news flash for the entire music
industry! A google search for "crooner genre" returns about 364,000
hits, and scanning just a few of them shows music industry rags,
artists, newspapers, and music websites all referring to, and
describing themselves as, the "crooner genre".


Uh, just because a google search returns hits that contain both the
words, doesn't necessarily mean there is such a thing as "crooner
genre"! I can enter "Goff stupid" and come up with 181,000 sites. Does
that mean its true?

Don't you ever get tired of being wrong?


And about big bands:

"A big band is a large musical ensemble that plays jazz music."
Nowhere do they even mention a singer.


Again, the GENRE.........jeez. I can tell, although you may think you
do, that you don't know much about music!!


Evidently, more than you. We've now established that while there is a
Big Band genre, and there is also a Crooner genre. People do indeed
croon to big band music, but big band does not define crooning. Buble
and Connick are crooners, NOT big band. Sinatra was not first, he
came ten years after the first crooner. All these things are facts,
backed up by research, that prove wrong the things that *you* have
said in this thread. Understand?

Jack, with your narrow minded thinking, I seriously doubt that you
could educate anybody on anything, unless it's how to be narrow minded!

Maybe, but I just broadened your horizons. You're welcome.


No, you just proved yourself ignorant of the facts.


Yes, you did. And I quote:

There's NO SUCH THING as a "crooner genre"!!!!


Giggle. Indeed.

Hehe! You've certainly proved your worth, as well as your intellect
with your senseless, rude, mindless post. If you had any credibility at
all, it's now gone. You do realize, that if our posts get you so near
to a stroke, that the simple thing to do, would be to not read them?
Now, give mommy back her computer.

I'm not going to do your research for you. If you want to go through
life ignorant, that's your choice.

I hope you expand your horizons, and come to realize that genres are
created all the time. It's not something that's static, it's
something that grows everytime that a new art form is created.

But "Crooner" is a genre, Sinatra was not the first, and Connick and
Buble are correctly defined as "Crooners", not "Big Band".

Care to differ? Provide a cite, please. Note that Fred will probably
cuss at you, however...

"There's something about the crooner genre that just brings out this
timeless feel, as though nothing has changed. Bublé, however,
proclaims, "It's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life," and
with the way things are looking for the singer, a successful future
may be on the horizon."

Happy now? There's plenty of others.

One reporter errantly calls it 'crooner genre' and you take that as
gospel? Here's some real stuff on music history:
http://library.music.indiana.edu/mus...es/genres.html


Oh, and here is Yahoos genre listings:
http://dir.yahoo.com/Entertainment/M...Complete_List/




Bassy, those were a couple of interesting links you provided. I
noticed a couple of interesting things:

1. Neither list claimed to be a complete list of music genres. In
fact, there were many singing styles notably absent from those lists.

2. If you're still touting those lists as being the final word on
music genres, you should notice that neither one contains "Big Band"
as a genre. So you were wrong when you called Buble "Big Band genre",
since by your own proof that genre doesn't exist.

Besides, there is no authority on what can, and can't be a genre. A
genre is: "A category of artistic composition, as in music or
literature, marked by a distinctive style, form, or content."
Crooning is an artistic style, and therefore is a genre. Hell,
yodeling is a genre.

Finally, maybe you should tell Buble himself that he's "Big Band".
He, on his own web site, describes himself as a crooner. Look at
http://www.michaelbuble.jazzyutopia.com/index2.html
where he bills himself as a "21st Century Crooner". Not a 21st
Century Big Band, huh?


Relax Fred, this is my last post in this thread.
