      It's not sad as u think it was. Because despies of the facts whether they lipsyncing or not even thoe they did...they was told to continue playing the roll on lip syncing,and they told the record company that there not gonna do it anymore. Which explains why! the music band🎶 instruments purposely interrupted the song play at there MTV live performance..all this was an example of who's the one in control of the music 🎶 industry

    • @WelshSwan1986
      @WelshSwan1986 7 років тому +1

      People do care but generally I would say the younger generations don't as they see a concert as a chance to see a really spectacular visual ensemble rather than a chance to hear their favourite artist sing live. I remember going to see Arctic Monkeys for the first time and whilst standing towards the back, there were a large group of people around the same age as me who got really pissed off because they did an acoustic set with some of their bigger hits and the group walked out and were like 'Why don't they do it just like they do on the album???'.

    • @pszczolka80
      @pszczolka80 6 років тому +1

      You’re comparing apples to oranges - name me one successful performer who lip-syncs to someone else’s vocals. The kind of lip-syncing you’re referring to is when a singer records their own vocal track and then performs to it on stage. That is NOT what Fab and Rob got in trouble for - the issue wasn’t that they weren’t singing/rapping live on stage, it was that they weren’t signing/rapping at all. They were lip-syncing to someone else’s vocals, and releasing albums with someone else’s vocals, and pretending it was them. That’s what the scandal was about. Look, I don’t blame them - I believe that they were manipulated by an unethical producer and got in over their heads - but to say that what they did is now common practice is simply incorrect. If a successful artist was caught doing what they did now, their career would suffer the same fate.

      @babytaylorm 8 років тому +5

      +chii tanda The producer Frank Farian never intended for them to sing, He had hired American singers for the vocals. He was looking for good looking front-men. He made Rob & Fab believe they were signing a contract to make a single. They didn't know any better than to sign a contract without a manager or a lawyer. They were very young. They found out later that they signed a contract to lip sync. Also neither one of them spoke English at the time. I'm sure they worked with coaches and dialect coaches to memorize the words, so they could appear to be singing.

    • @DainaSancho
      @DainaSancho 8 років тому +6

      +babytaylorm Their story is so tragic. As Fab stated 'We are human beings. The media has a way of making things like a machine. We had no support system. We were told things like 'There is no time' and it hurt Rob more than myself because to him it was so unexpected." Frank Farian gave them 4k and they were poor and gullible young dancers looking to break into the industry. Farian was well-established with 'so many gold records on his walls..." they signed contacts they didn't even understand, with no lawyers or managers. They didn't know any better. They believed they would be allowed to sing as well as dance. People who think it was their fault should do their research. Fab has mastered multiple languages, his story rings true. Just look at Boney M, how Farian had people lipsync to HIS own voice. I applaud Fab for continuing on, through his own pain, loss of Rob, worldwide ridicule. He and John Davis with "Face Meets Voice" sound amazing and John Davis is an angel for taking the high road, unlike Charles Shaw, who was truly nasty about them, bitter and jealous. He knew what he was getting into then later became angry. Fab tells his and Rob's story with intelligence and regret. He still protects Rob to this day. His tribute songs to Rob are beautiful. ❤

The moment the real ones sang they didn't love them anymore, why? lots of hypocrites just loving the looks of a model and fabricated music but couldn't care about their personas or the real singers at the time, just the product.

    What I'll never understand in a million years is why was the world so shocked when the truth came out about Rob & Fab not being the real singers? With their poor English skills, and obvious European accents (especially in Rob's case), there was no way in Hell it was actually them singing those songs! My only guess was that it was one of those cases where you perhaps knew deep down inside that it wasn't really them, but did your best to believe (or at least pretend to) otherwise. If I was fully aware of what was going on at the time, I would've been willing to put down good money that definitely wasn't their voices you heard "singing" without a doubt, and wouldn't have been the least bit shocked when I found out for certain too!
