Back in her prime, do you think Whitney Houston was the best female vocalist ever?

I like her better than Miley Cyrus

Who is the better singer? Who do you prefer?

Who knew writing songs with lines like "she wears short skirts, I wear t shirts" would actually win the Grammy Best Album of the Year... >_>

Was it artistically and musically the best album of the year?? I'm not so sure...

what does everyone here think of this album? (the #1 selling album of 2009 and how it is the one to beat at the Grammys).

Which album do you prefer?

Who do you think is the better singer?

Which of these two conductors do you prefer?

I think Beethoven is the most influential composer, since his compositions reached a depth that no previous composer's works were able to achieve.

I'm Reading "A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man" by James Joyce. I read "Dubliners" right before

I currently have the HD-280 which is fine, but I feel it clamps my head too tight and is rather big and cumbersome. What is another closed headphone that provides good sound for classical music and is smaller? (also, at a similar price range)

I dislike Argerich. For me, there's really little depth to her playing. She rushes like mad and bangs the piano, just to show off her technique. Sure, she can bang loudly and play fastly, but that is not the point of music. Her recordings always leave me feeling empty

Which of these pianists do you prefer?
