| From the Where2sing.com forum: I have lost track of what we are debating:
All the following I quote from DAVID’s postings:
(1) So the question really remains - Is karaoke an extension of singing, or a subset of it?
(2) I'm asking an open question about the superiority of either singers or karaoke singers.
(3) (a) Who would the normal person call a singer?
(3) (b) Ok, so maybe let's define “singers” as opposed to “karaoke singers”.
And all the above were off-shoots from discussions on THE Karaoke School …
I am guessing RAY’s last post is a summary of all his previous posts on all of the above questions when he said: “…. I think the people on this forum are also saying. The general premise coming across is that there is no real difference ….”
If that’s the case, I disagree with RAY:
(a) This is a huge chasm between who’s a SINGER and who’s a KARAOKE SINGER.
(b) There are certain qualifying factors denoting who can be classified as a SINGER.
(c) To me, KARAOKE is a subset of SINGING (because to say that KARAOKE is an extension of SINGING has the connotation that KARAOKE is a “superior” form of SINGING, which to me, it is CLEARLY NOT).
