I don’t mind people not being fans of Faith or Shania, but I do find it a bit irritating when people feel the need to build up one female artist by tearing others down.

This is Sweetcheeks and I think people shouldn’t be mean to Trisha Yearwood. Her music is way better than all the songs like “She’s Country,” “Take a Back Road,” “Holler Back” “Chicken Fried” and all that garbage. I can listen to Trisha sing “Walkaway Joe” without feeling my IQ is going down! You can’t say that about Ashton Shepherd and a lot of today’s country females trying to get into the business who release things ilke “Look it Up.” Trisha Yearwood is good – she has a really good voice and she doesn’t waste it on bad songs. Thats all I have to say and my name is Sweetcheeks.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say Faith or Shania dress up like sluts; that’s a bit steep in my opinion, even though I myself am not really a fan of either one. They’re just obviously different from Trisha. In any case, Trisha concentrates on vocal and song presence, which is really what most great singers are all about.

Incidentally, Trisha has, on occasion, played acoustic guitar onstage.

She is one of the best if not the best singer country music will ever see. So what if she didnt dress like a slut like faith and shania but she sure could sing circles around them and anyone else for that matter

Trisha is a great singer, and I’ve enjoyed much of her music, but like Reba, I can’t only handle so much of her voice before I have to change the music…. Other than some great songs over the years, i’m truly not sure why she is in the top ten… She plays no instrument to my knowledge,, ,she doesn’t dance on stage, she doesn’t hold to any traditional sound, nor does she keep to her pop side as well…Trisha reminds me of Patsy Cline,, great voice but no power behind her when it comes to putting on a great show,,, strictly a stand behind the mike kind of singer from the days of Patsy. For recording purposes, this works fine, but for paying money to go and watch,,, no thanks,, YAWN, boring… give me Reba, Shania, and Barbara Mandrell, the Queen of live shows……

Trisha Yearwood is the Emmylou of our generation. Her taste in music is unlike anything we have seen in the past 17 years from new artists. And she made commercial success with songs such as “The Song Remembers When” “Walkaway Joe” and “Real Live Woman” if you think Trisha is just another one of the mainstream chicks then go listen to her 2000 album “Real Live Woman”
People forget she has sold nearly 15 million albums and has gone Gold in many other countires outside the US. And she is the best female vocalist to have come since 1991. And I think her success promted other labels to go and sign other female acts. Who knows maybe the discovery of Faith Hill and others are in thanks to Trisha(not saying the Faith Hill discovery was a good thing)

That’s just one component (doing something very well) to so many that should be considered. She is a fine singer again, but she is not that influential and should not be amongst many of the trailblazers who shape and mold the future. Trisha is on par with being the same usual mold with average appeal. Nothing out of this world, just a fine vocalist which to me doesn’t equate to being so high on such a list.
