Too many artists listed
I removed a bunch of artists from the article, but they got re-inserted. Some of these make no sense. The Beatles? Simon & Garfunkel? The Supremes? They stopped recording before soft rock was even invented. Others just don't fit the category. Not everything that's "easy listening" is soft rock. R&B like Boyz II Men and New Age like Enya are their own genres. Korny O'Near 08:19, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
- Hmm..
The Beatles' "If I Fell" does seem to sound very 'soft-rocky'. Dave Clark Five also had a hit with "Because". Don't know why 98 Degrees or All 4 One were thrown in there by that user. This genre does indeed confuse alot of people.
My idea is to erase the list altogether and simply put artist/singers in alphabetical order with an example of a song or songs, so we know why they were thrown into the soft rock category in the first place.
Example:
- "Air Supply - Here I Am
- "Aerosmith - I Don't Want To Miss A Thing
- "Billy Vera and The Beaters - At This Moment
- "Chicago - I Don't Want To Live Without Your Love
- "The Eagles - Take It To The Limit
- "Smokey Robinson - Just To See Her
- "Steve Perry - Foolish Heart
etc etc
I'll go ahead and do that now.
