No but i prefer weaker vocalists than great vocalists who scream too much like Ariana, Mariah (even Christina sometimes though I love her)

I dont mind weaker vocals when the song is brilliant and sung with character and authenticity. Also I just hate vocal acrobats who scream, over-emote and belt the f*** out of every f****** syllable no matter how tragic the song is just to show off.

Britney is a powerhouse she just holds back. Doesn't belong on the list.

For some reason, girls with weak vocals have a far better discography than girls with good vocals.
Britney, Selena, Rihanna, JLo >>>>>> Christina, Mariah, Whitney, Beyoncé

The only difference is discography between the left side and the right is is that the right leans heavily towards R&B inspired music and the left is pop. And that doesn't really say much about anything because Beyonce's discography is extremely good with all the right pop hits mixed in. It doesn't say much about weak vocals as it does the genre because Rihanna certainly doesn't have weak vocals.

No, I definitely don't prefer weaker vocalists; however, from the stronger vocalists, I have strong preference for those that display unique style and perspective and don't just rest on churning out big ballads or trying to make huge vocal displays out of every single song. I appreciate and respect talent but, vocal talent alone isn't going to make me an invested fan, either; especially if you're a one trick pony. On the flip side, of the weaker singers whose music I enjoy, I tend to care more on a song by song basis than actually being impressed with and invested in them.

There are some powerful vocalists I love but I think lyrics and production are more important to me then a big voice.

If you call your self a singer you should be able to sing perfectly like a professional live even if you don't have the range and the a qualities of someone who is regarded as a vocalist.

So you're saying those who like talent don't listen to real music and implying perfect voices are always just screaming?
The low standards wowza. Clearly pressed your fave isn't talented enough

Vocal talent isnt required to create and perform great music. If someone isnt able to appreciate a brilliant piece of music just because the vocals arent perfect doesnt know how to feel music. Simple as that.

Exactly, if your career involves singing I expect you to possess the ability to sing properly, otherwise you're fake and taking up the spots of actual talented individuals who are trying to make it in the industry and have something to offer; so no.

According to who? And please do not tell me you said Selena has a better disco then Bey, Xtina and Mariah. The sales and critics disagree.

I guess so
but its more because i like their music more and they often have other redeeming qualities. I still get chills when I listen to powerful vocals but it's not even close to the most important factor for me.

Music comes first imho.
In terms of voice, I prefer versatile singers (strong or weak voices do not rly matter in this case). I rly don't like listening to someone showcasing the same vocal ability 24/7.

I have already listened to too many lifeless and soulless renditions of classic songs by X Factor contestans belting the **** out of them to know better and to value a heartfelt and authentic performances even when the vocals are not that great. You can keep appreciating the fake vocal acrobatics if thats what matters to you the most
