There is an interesting, but at the same time a sadphenomenon (现象)now:
there is
a rise in the number ofsingers and bands that have little to do with good music.Many singers
or bands know little about what good musicmeans. What is the cause of this rise?
Most of these singers have taken music as a "job”because it is a good way of making
money. And if you havea good appearance and also original or expensiveclothes to
show off (炫耀) at your concerts or at differentappearances in public, then your voice
is not as importantas it should be. The public will prefer to admire more themost
interesting parts of your body, whether you are a girlor a boy.They will even forget about
the fact that you arethere toshow your music skills, not your dancing, whichis important
too, but not at such a high level.
Therefore, we can see many young girls on TV wholook very good but who have
nothing to do with music.They choose to wear very few clothes to catch attention,but when
it comes to singing they are a complete mess (-团糟) and one doesn't need to have an ear for
music tonotice their lack of talent. But anyway, they have concertsand they enjoy travelling
from one place to another. It isthe public's fault because they accept this and are pleased
with this commercial music. People who enjoy this kind ofmusic are generally young people
while adults preferlistening to good old bands.
However, the young generation should understandwhile appearance is important,
it is less important thantalent and a good voice. It is very necessary to be able tosing well
when preparing a concert and all these bands thathave little to do with good music are
failures on stage. Ifsomebody has a great voice and wants to become a singer,
he should take some special courses in this area, becausethey will help him improve singing abilities.

A.an art serving the public,
