Title: Janice Joplin
Post by: Charlie Nakatestes, Japanese Golfer on March 04, 2004, 04:44:00 pm
Just heard a Janice Joplin song. Has there ever been anyone else as annoying and untalented as her in the history of recorded music?

 I hear songs I haven't heard in years all the time on XM "loft". Just last night I heard Janice Ian's "seventeen" I know it's totally a chick song, but I love that song...maybe I'm in touch with my feminim side a little too much!  :eek:

Oh come one on markie...you know she's just a novelty, and you can't really take her seriously. I was looking forward to seeing her support Bowie though.

The first album is really good pop. I am not so familiar with the other two albums, I didnt by them as I didnt like the songs I heard off them and they got mostly bad reviews. But the first album is great.

Her backing band is wicked talented.  She's just gawd awful, especially live.

I agree with Mankie. The first album was fun when it came out, and she was fun live...but at this point she's just a novelty whose first, second, and third albums won't stand the test of time...just another musical lightweight.

When did you see her?
 
 she was great live when I saw her.
 
 Was she really worse than Britney?
 
 
 Macy will fade into obscurity because her follow up albums were not any good, not because of the the quality of that first album.

I bet that a lot of people would still be blown away by that song's lyrics; bitter with a capital B. The Simpsons once used the song as the opening musical number of a beauty pageant. LMAO'ed.
 
 Just remembered another weird fact about the song: Ian performed it on Saturday Night Live's 1975 debut show (first known as NBC's Saturday Night), and not as a joke.

ok I'm going to weigh in with some support for Janis...maybe it comes from having a mom who was a total california hippie, or maybe it's just the drugs talking, but I think she's great.  her performance in the Woodstock film is just incredible.

Yeah I've got a soft spot for ol' Janice.  I did a book report on a Janice biography in the 9th grade.  Haven't heard anything in years and years though.
