Review of fox news australia::What is the current theme song for channel 10








The               pop               music               industry               may               be               having               a               huge               problem               on               its...well,               lips               in               the               near               future.

No,               this               has               nothing               to               do               with               the               slower               sales               of               music               in               recent               years               or               American               Idol               getting               a               pink               slip               from               Fox.

It               all               starts               on               the               tomorrow               side               of               the               International               Dateline               and               in               Australia               where               the               government               of               Victoria               and               other               Oz               states               are               finding               serious               promotional               fault               with               pop               stars               using               lip-syncing               in               their               shows.

We're               not               talking               local               acts               (who,               ironically,               really               do               sing--no               matter               how               tone               deaf),               but               international               superstars               who've               already               long-conformed               to               the               thought               that               the               public               will               accept               a               lip-synced               performance.

And               it               was               all               instigated               by               the               music               industry               that               backed               it               when               nobody               noticed.
               Australia               isn't               directly               irked               by               an               artist               using               lip-syncing               during               a               concert.

It's               in               the               refusal               of               management               for               Top               40               acts               indicating               on               the               ticket               stub               whether               the               singer               or               group               will               lip-sync               during               much               of               a               concert.

Although               you               can't               help               but               think               this               as               a               secret               Aussie               plan               to               corner               the               lip-syncing               issue               once               and               for               all.

If               Australia               implements               a               lip-sync               law,               it'll               put               the               entire               pop               music               industry               behind               the               blackball               and               into               a               quandary               for               the               first               time               about               revealing               their               shortcomings.
               Lest               we               forget,               though,               that               lip-syncing               was               once               a               necessary               process               in               the               world               of               singers               performing               on               TV               before               it               became               the               crutch               for               vocally-challenged               and               dancing               pop               tweens.

If               you               want               to               blame               the               British               for               starting               everything               in               entertainment,               then               you               can               this               time.

They               began               the               trend               of               lip-syncing               once               the               rock               era               started               and               a               bevy               of               singers               were               trotted               out               to               the               public               with               little               to               no               singing               skills.
               What               sold               these               bubble               gum               stars,               of               course,               were               assembly               line               songs               with               cool               hooks.

When               required               to               go               on               a               music-oriented               show               to               dance               while               singing,               the               problem               of               sounding               like               the               original               recording               while               moving               around               during               a               production               number               had               to               be               solved.

It               wasn't               lost               on               anybody               that               what               sounded               good               on               record               wasn't               going               to               translate               well               in               a               live               setting               let               alone               attempting               to               sing               while               doing               The               Twist               with               a               group               of               go-go               dancers.
               Today,               it               might               boggle               the               mind               to               see               how               British               teens               and               adults               tolerated               musical               acts               for               so               long               obviously               lip-syncing               to               their               studio               recording               on               TV               shows.

The               only               wide               chasm               between               then               and               now,               however,               was               that               they               usually               sang               live               when               going               on               tour--sometimes               with               mixed               results,               if               at               least               being               real.
               How               the               American               music               industry               managed               to               make               the               public               accept               pop               stars               lip-syncing               in               a               concert               with               expensive               ticket               prices               is               one               of               the               perfect               examples               of               manipulation               under               the               populace's               noses               for               the               sake               of               profit.

Shelve               it               next               to               all               the               financial               and               political               scams               of               our               history               that               went               undetected               for               years.
               With               that               context               in               mind,               how               would               the               American               music               industry               handle               it               if               our               consumer-watching               government               took               the               Australian               philosophy               and               told               concert               promoters               to               reveal               the               truth               about               lip-syncing?


               _____
               The               immediate               thought               of               the               above               situation               might               be               what               we               saw               of               the               financial               titans               who               bilked               America:               A               meltdown               and               self-destruction               out               of               fear.

Not               that               we'd               think               music               mavens               would               blow               their               brains               out               if               they               found               out               they               might               lose               money               revealing               something               they've               banked               on               for               decades.

Give               a               big               check               mark               to               panic,               though.

One               thing               we've               learned               about               big               corporate               structure               is               that               when               a               big               cash               cow               gets               caught               in               the               mousetrap,               a               lot               of               overdrive               contrition               starts               to               come               out               through               the               mouths               of               executives.

It's               based               on               getting               caught               with               their               pants               down               and               revealing               the               contents               of               their               wallets.
               While               Australia's               possible               law               will               affect               the               music               industry               here               as               well               as               every               other               country               with               artists               who               lip-sync               in               concerts,               an               American               adoption               of               such               a               law               could               set               up               a               massive               house               cleaning               to               make               room               for               real               singing               talent.

Or,               if               the               music               industry               doesn't               crumple               up               in               panic               from               not               knowing               how               to               fix               something,               expect               one               other               form               of               manipulation:               Live               singing               with               auto-tuning               microphones.
               We               know               the               auto-tune               process               is               already               used               in               the               studio               with               nearly               every               artist,               even               ones               that               don't               necessarily               need               it.

Whether               you               want               to               consider               that               another               form               of               cheating               during               a               live               concert               depends               on               whether               you               consider               it               an               enhancement               to               performance               rather               than               a               crutch.

It's               a               compromise               that               can               put               legalese               to               good               use               in               being               able               to               say               on               ticket               stubs               the               performer               really               is               singing.
               It's               either               this               scenario               or               the               music               industry               capitulating               to               a               law               requiring               admittance               of               lip-syncing               in               concerts.

In               said               situation,               would               the               public               bring               down               all               of               our               pop               singers               who               really               can't               sing?

We               won't               name               names               here               when               they're               so               patently               obvious.
               Acceptance               of               mediocre               singing               may               be               the               only               saving               grace               to               that.

There               isn't               a               doubt               we've               evolved               to               the               point               where               a               great               voice               isn't               needed               to               get               into               the               Top               40.

You               can               even               say               that               the               more               raw               and               real               the               voice               is,               the               more               apt               it               is               teens               and               20-somethings               will               relate               to               and               gravitate               to               them.

It's               where               the               words               style               and               essence               still               survive.
               If               that's               the               direction               the               American               music               industry               would               take               after               scrambling               around               to               avoid               a               consumer               law,               then               a               new               type               of               singing               would               have               to               develop               where               sounding               more               natural               and               raw               on               a               touring               show               would               also               have               to               cross               over               into               the               studio.
               Whether               that's               the               ultimate               expression               of               music               or               the               downfall               of               true               talent               in               the               world               is               a               matter               of               the               world               populace's               collective               idea               of               what               entertainment               will               become               in               the               future.
               Let               them               speak               up               about               it               now               or               forever               hold               a               mute               microphone.
