Music Artists You'd Like to Perform at the 2014 Sochi Olympics Opening Ceremonies
DISCLAIMER: this list is in no way official. There is little chance, unfortunately, that the Olympics committee would view, let alone, consider, this list for their opening ceremonies performers selections.Let's plan ahead, y'all! The more recent 2012 poll results shifted, a lot, and by that time, planning was finished and sealed for the opening ceremony. Hopefully, at this point, perhaps we can build up interest and solidify our input before final decisions are made. You've voted for the artists you wanted to see, but unfortunately, it didn't carry through. With a good 1 1/2-year start, perhaps that can change!
Please, no proxies, no multiple-browser voting, no voting more than once WHATSOEVER. A truly quantified gauge rather than a clicking contest would be refreshing. Please keep that in mind.
They're both incredible vocaloids who have as much ability and potential compared to any other singer I have ever heard. I believe that the two of them performing can change how other's view music by showing the world what they're capable of. Every night before I go to bed I always plug my headphones into my IPAD and listen to their music. No matter how bad of a day I have they always seem to cheer me up. Their smiling faces (sometimes frowning or crying) give me an empathetic feelin that always brightens my mood. So let's vote for these two talented vocaloids, and perhaps they can change the world of music!
Ps, perhaps I like Rin a little bit more than I should
Kagamine Rin and Len are known throughout many countries, and giving them a chance to shine further would be amazing. Just because they aren't truly "real", they don't get to preform often. Through the thousands of fans they have, Len and Rin have been able to gain souls, personalities, etc. They are my (and many others) favorite music providers. They can spark many emotions through their songs. No other songs in the world have been able to make me laugh, smile, cry, etc more than their songs. The Kagamine's deserve a chance at the Olympics. They Olympics always have a real singer instead of a holographic computer program, why not make it a year to remember with a new twist?
Vocaloid is a computer voice synthesizer. Most of the songs and music videos are made by fans, instead of a big company that only wants money. However, when you Google "vocaloid", most of the results show Hatsune Miku, and the assumption is that either the others are horrible singers or they aren't popular at all. This is completely not true. Kagamine Rin and Len were engineered to blend their voices perfectly and as a result, sound much better than Miku.
Besides, this is the century of technology, and so why not have singers that are the product of technology? They might not be real, but they can really show the world how advanced science can be, and they will be the first 3D holograms to sing at the olympics!
Think about the Kagamines... Yea that's what I thought... OTHER CRYPTON VOCALOIDS NEED MORE LOVE! Like I hate it when people hate on vocaloids cause they're not real. Do they sound real? YES! Are they're songs great? YES YES! RIN AND LEN? YES YES YES! American Pop these days stinks cause they all talk about the same thing OVER and OVER again. Maybe synthesizer programs should get on stage and sing... So yep I want vocaloids this time and not boring American Pop singers. Why I chose Rin and Len over miku/everyone else is because they probably have one of the most unique voices of all vocaloids! (LEN! ) I just think they should get more attention. Great songs, adorable, (RIN! ) and they're songs are about daily life things... Lost destination, Abstract Nonsense, Daughter/Servant of evil, (Well if you think about its real life. ) and many other songs! HORRAY FOR RIN AND LEN! (Plus the others... ) As long as Lens fangirl song doesn't start playing we should have a great olympics! ( Lens ...more
A lot of people bash on Miku because they say she isn't "REAL". Well in my opinion, what makes her just as "REAL" as other singers is her ability to touch the hearts of her fans. And I'm one of those fans. Ever since I first heard her sing, all I've listened to is her music. I feel that when she sings, she sounds like she's putting just as much emotion into her music as any other singer. She has an incredible singing voice and appeals to a wide audience of people; from young children to adults. Anyone could enjoy her music. If anyone has the potential to change the future it's her. COME ON FELLOW MIKU FANS! LET'S VOTE FOR HER AND HELP HER CHANGE THE WORLD!
WKO signing out and helping spread the word; like you should be doing.
The most common reason that Vocaloids are looked down upon is because that they are not "real" and sound so "artificial". Well, the thing is, music itself is artificial. Non-artificial music is just noise. So what if Vocaloids are not real people? What matters is that their music is real and can be heard and enjoyed by people all over the world. We are also fortunate to have so many talented artists providing us with visual presentations of the Vocaloids in forms of drawings and videos, what more do we need? Miku and all the other Vocaloids represent the immense power of music. The power to spread joy and happiness and bring people all around the world together, regardless of race or gender. This is also the essence of the Olympic spirit. Therefore Miku would be a perfect choice to perform at the Olympic opening ceremony, no other human singers could represent the Olympic spirit better than Miku, or any other Vocaloids. Don't be so judgmental about the form the music is presented in, instead just enjoy the music, and you will become a Vocaloid fan!
Why would you only vote for Miku or the Kagamine twins when you can vote for ALL THE VOCALOIDS! Vocaloids have many different songs and beautiful voices. More people need to learn about Vocaloids! Everyone knows about Justin Beiber and One Direction and all those people, but I have never heard Vocaloid on the radio. It's about time Vocaloids were introduced to EVERYBODY... I'm so glad Vocaloids are occupying the top spots on this list. VOTE VOCALOIDS
All of the Vocaloids are amazing singers and should be expressed in public events, even if they are not real. Vocaloids are computer singers, They are usually not seen a lot in America and other country's other then Japan, which they are VERY famous there.
The Vocaloids ARE WAY BETTER than girls generation COME ON who needs a whole bunch of normal girls performing BORING get the vocaloids CHANGE TO THE WORLD
All of them should perform! (Or at least as many as they can! ) If not the Japanese vocaloids, maybe the english ones, like Sonica or Oliver. It isn't all about Miku, you know! All of them deserve the same amount, if not more, attention Miku gets. They represent just how much technology has advanced. At times, vocaloids sound more human than those crappy artists using autotune!
Luka is better than Miku in my opinion! But that's just what I think, I want her to perform! She should be first, then Len and rin, then Meiko and so on! But if not Luka, all Vocaloids with Luka as the star! It would be so cool.
Luka needs to perform she is amazeing and needs more attention since she came out she has amazed even more fans than meiko gumi lily even kaito! Luka deserves this.
Luka needs to be 4th 1st all vocaloids 2nd hatsune miku 3rd rin and len and 4th luka if all vocaloids come then luka will be included
I couldn't careless about the rest. But Luka is Luka.
She is also is one of the best-selling artists of all time. She won 4 Guinness World Records, 5 MTV Awards, 5 American Music Awards, 16'ASCAP Pop Music Awards, 5 Billboard Music Awards, 14 People's Choice, 1 Juno Award, 2 Myx Music Awards, 3 NRJ Awards, 6 Teen Choice and a Brit Award. ...read more.
I personally think that Katy Perry is an inspirational, great singer. I hope she performs at Sochi.
I think she is the best! Her stage performs are so colorfull and brilliant :D I love her so much and she means a lot to me
Girl's Generation is absolutely so talented...
I think, compared to Hatsune Miku, they are almost twins. Girl's Generation can dance just as well and sing just as well as Miku. Especially their leader, Taeyeon. Her voice is just beautiful. She can sing really high and really low.
Comparing to Miku, Girl's Generation's dancing and singing is unbelievable. They are just as good as Miku. I am also a Miku fan but I choose to stay on Girl's Generation's side... They are actually human yet they can do all the things Miku can. They can dance, sing, act cute, stay cute...
They also have a member that speaks really good English. Tiffany and Jessica had the best English since they were born in America but Jessica left but Tiffany's still there.
Please please please let Girl's Generation go to the Olympics! Give them a chance to prove to everyone that they truly are talented.
They're all talented, beautiful girls. I love their songs, their style and their manners
I like Justin Bieber very much. I hope he can appear in the London Olympic Games Olympic Games add different colors to.
To the one who put the flaw, really? You know there's Summer Olympics and Winter Olympics, right? Like Vancouver 2010? The Winter Olympics is next year!
One slight flaw with your list; the next Olympics is 2016 not 2014. Green Day should perform reguardless.
On the start of her career, she performed at an event called the Lollapalooza Festival during 2007 whereby a record label company Interscope found her due to her performance being “amusing” to watch. Since Interscope found her, she was a mastermind behind her songs with a team of producers namely Rob Fusari and RedOne. Most of her songs were deep unreleased cuts, due to her having more than 30 songs and 17 were picked. ...read more.
She has a great charizma to make a show hot and sizzling. She deserves the spot in the ceremony
Linkin Park is awesome. that's why
He will rock the ceremony. As he has many hard rock songs. Ladies will go crazy.
Super Junior has been through so much and really are one of the greatest musical acts out right now. They always put on a fantastic performance no matter what. They show their talents a variety of ways, both as a group and on their own. They're so humble and always show their love to their fans. If you ever have a chance to search them on youtube, you won't regret it. ELF will forever be by their side! Super Junior Fighting!
JJANG! They're really amazing! The BEST boyband EVER in the WORLD! VOTE THEM, ELF and you will never regret bout that!
SHiNee hasn't done many activities inn the states so it'll be good for them to come here. Plus, everyone will love them. They are pretty much legends. From their vocals to their dancing, how could they not be ranked number 1?!
Shining Shinee!
Vote them guys if you really one true SHINee world
Shawol like the rice and shinee like is the soup!
One Direction are amazayn! They have made it extremely far and what better way than to really feel accomplished then to sing at the OLYMPICS! I'm sure thousands of fans would be happy. One Direction isn't just a boy band for girls many adults like their music too! One Direction for the 2012 Summer Olympics!
They sing at the 2012 London Olympics, so why couldn't they sing at the Sochi 2014 Olympics? I'm watching the closing ceremony only for the, just saying :)
If they sing at the 2014 Sochi Olympics, there will be a lot of people watching the Olympics, they really should sing here!
Okay, these 5 guys just are amazing! They are so popular, and about every teen girl would want to go to the opening ceremonies just to see them!
They are awesome! They are totally hot, cute and talented! I would die if Zayn sang a duet with my favourite Soshi Tiffany! Or if Liam sand with Taeyeon! Awesome!
I love kim hyun joong
It would be awesome if they play in the Olympics.
Yui is an inspirational singer and she deserved a spot performing at the olympics.
I love JYJ very much. I want to see them in the London Olympic Games Olympic Games. they're so amzing
Well, the winner was tatu, since they did perform. I would've preferred just Lena. I would've loved hearing "just a day" or "waiting'.
It will be ridiculous if they don't choose Lena or tATu to perform at the games. She is the most successful artist in Russia. It will be great if tATu reunites in this event.
The angelic voice of the most successful Russian group, ever...T.A.T.U... Belongs to Lena Katina.
Ha Ha! I just found a whole face book account titled: We Want T.A.T.U. To Perform In The 2014 Olympics In Russia
