When it comes to pop music best vocalist, we always hear about Aretha, Patti, Barbra, Mariah, Whitney and Beyonce.

I've read a lot about their technique, but can you guys rank them and perhaps give a short summary of their vocal technique AT THEIR PRIME? I'd really appriciate that .

PS: Vocal color is completely irrelevant as I'm only interested in their vocal abilities and technique.

I want to praythem after Maghrib. See this s how I plan to do them: 3 rakaats before Maghrib. 3 rakaat MAghrib. Then 2 rakaat Sunnah. Then now the nafl prayers. 2 rakaat nafl then a taslima. then 2 again and then taslima and finally 2 rakaats. So a total of 6 rakats. BUt while I'm praying nafl, should I red any specific surah after Surah Al Fatiha? Or can I read whatever I like? And when I'm done with.the 2 first rakaats of nafl should I read anything before beginning with the other 2 rakaats of nafl? Sorry I'm just confused haha

I feel less than people for everything I do.. I'm getting extrmemely paranoid about others opinion about me, it has become a very sensitive issue. I don't feel embarrasment, I feel shame. Ashmed and it would bother me for a long time. I could imagine me doing stupid shiit and I'd get extremely.ashamed about it (though it didn't happen to me ,- ever) I cant even afford seeing a doctor or a therapist and due to my social phobia I barely have anyone to talk to. It's really killing me.

I know it differs from artist to artist, but how much does the average one make? 30 %? Cause I always hear singers saying most of their incomes come fra tours

I began studying vocals not so long ago, but vocal dynamite confuses me a bit. I know what it is - how soft or loud you can go on a note. BUt is it only on the upper register? Or does it count on your middle + lower register.For example, can I be dynamic on note G3 (say, that's when my middle register starts)

I don't think this is normal, but I feel embarrassed and

ashamed over everything about me. I've done a lot of

embarrassing stuff in my life but it's really starting to

affecting to the point where I don't feel like going out of my

bed cause I'm too shamed.

however, the worst thing is when I constantly imagining

embarrassing stuff that hasn't even happened to me yet I feel

so ashamed. What is it? I think it's normal people thinking

about stupid stuff they've done in the past, but not to this

extent. I think about 99% of the time and it really saddens me.

I want to pray after maghrib from now on, inshallah and I want to pray 2 rakaat and aftee 2 rakaat and finally 2 raakat (for a total of six) however I don't know if I could read any surah I like or is there any specifc surah I have to read? I've heard something about surat al ikhlaas 3 times?

I've been masturbating a lot during these 5 years, but recently I've learned that many of my prayers are NOT accepted because I haven't taking a bath after I was done. It made me feel really sad.

I'm trying my best to stop it.

But I'm a little worried, because my mum won't let me bath every day because she doesn't see the point + we will run out of water. I really can't tell her I need to do ghuls in order to purify myself cause I'm pretty sure she will kill me finding out what I'm doing lol. No seriously, I'm too ashamed and only bad things can come out of this and it frightens me.

I'm really afraid of judgement day, what shall I do?

I use to have a really hard crush on this dude for over a year, but decided to let go four months ago (of personal reasons, this wasn't going to work out). I really can't get over him and I just don't understand. I've erased anything that I reminded me of him (pictures, music, etc) and I really try to distract my mind and tell myself that there is a life other than being with him. I try my best to avoid him, but even then... whenever I hear he has a girlfriend or is seeing someone my heart just sink. I really tried seeing other guys, but nothing helps.

What's even worse is we don't live far from each other so it's inevitable to meet him (although I try my best ignoring him). The thing is, he's really popular among the girls and he seem to have a lot of guy friends too. He is also the "perfect" boy i.e good grades, barely gets into trouble, respected and so on. I don't know why, but I just feel so inferior to him. Whenever he pass me and just look at me for 000.1 seconds, I just feel like going underground. Maybe because I know I'll do anything embarrassing. I just feel like everything I do is embarrasing and it makes me really sad about myself. I always feel a shame about everything about me. I grew up people pointing out everything wrong with me, thus I feel a shamed whenever someone just look at me. I don't really like when people feel my presence. It really has ruined me to the point where I don't feel like going out of the door anymore and just staying at home. It angers and sadness me so much. I really don't know what to do anymore

For example when Katy Perry or Lady Gaga is about to release their albums why don't they just open their own store where they sell albums and merchandices? Don't they just earn more money like that?

I made an account just earlier and I went in to my hotmail to verify it. I'm trying to post a message but it either gives me a message in read which I'm too slow to read or take me to the front page. It's really frustuating cause I can't write anything.

Which one do you prefer to be a fan of and why?

I really can't take it anymore. I keep picturing some nice scenarios(I like daydreaming), but it gets ruin by something embarrasing. Example I would picture me walking with my dog and I meet my crush. Suddenly I would slip down in front of everyone and everyone would laugh and make jokes about it. Then I would hide underneath my cover. It's so ridiculos cause it hasn't happened but why do I feel like dying?

It just mess with my mind a lot. I can't do anything, daydream about anything without feeling embarrased. It really has become a problem

I've heard it's only popular among teens (mainly girls) and female adults in the beginning of their 20's. The rest couldn't care less. I've heard it from a chinese friend, but I want to hear other response.

Please, I want serious answers from people who has some knowledge and experince. Not the typical kpop fans that has no clear knowledge about the Chinese music industry or China in general and think that attracting a zoo to the airport mean that it's the biggest thing eva cuz kpop is taking over the entira world omg!!!!!!!

Say, the film cost 50 000 $ to make

(made by an indenpendent film company), and get sold to TV and DVDS. So let's us say the total gross for DVD is 10 mill $.

There are only few actors, and a small crew. Can we expect that they get most of the money? Or is there all kinds of crap they need to pay before seeing some of the green?

Can you give me a small idea of how things work?

Say, they sell merchandise worth of 50 $ million dollas, how much do they get in %?

Before you judge me, I was in a car accident and got badly injured the start of the year so I had to take time of from school and focus on my recovery. Then summer vacation came and it's over now. My teacher didn't go hard on me in the beginning, so he's helping with composition function and we're starting from the basic...

Anyways, enough of my life story there are 2 questions I couldn't bring myself to ask him because I was too embarrased lol.. I've learned it before, but I forgot it.

= –(2 x + 3) 2 + 5

= –(4 x 2 + 12 x + 9) + 5

where did the 12x come from?

second is function composition:

it says f(x)= x+2/x-1 and g(x)=2/x

fog= f(g(x)) = 2/x +2 / 2/x -1 = 2/x + 2x/x / 2/x - x/x = 2x + 2 / x / 2-x /x ... (I understand the rest)

can anyone.. please... explain... what.the.****. is going on?

Do yoi prefer groups or soloist (in music)? And why?

I know for singers tours and merchandice sales is the biggest income, but how much do they get from merchandice sales? Do they get around 60%? 50%?
