Crooner is an epithet given to a male singer of a certain style of popular songs, dubbed pop standards!. A crooner is a singer of popular ballads and thus a "balladeer"!. The singer is normally backed by a full orchestra or big band!. Generally, crooners sang and popularized the songs from the Great American Songbook!. Crooner was originally bestowed as a negative term, and many people given the term, such as Russ Colombo, did not consider themselves to be crooners!. In an interview, Frank Sinatra said that he did not consider himself or Bing Crosby to be crooners!.

I am only sixteen, but I love listening to crooners!. I recently bought an amazing CD titled classic crooners and have been listen to it on my ipod day and night!. My mom kids and says I am so dorky but I just love the music back then!. It is so much nicer to listen to and the people are truley talented!. Today, there so much cussing and bad topic in the music we listen to!. Music back then was so clean!.!.!. how it should be!. My favorite our Judy Garland ( even though crooner is rarely used to describe a female singer), Frank Sinatra, Fred Astaire, Tony Bennett, Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, and Dean Martin!. Some crooners that are popular today inclusde Michael Bible' (one of my personal favorites) , Tony Bennett, and Tom Jones!.

Keep enjoying listening to this great music! If you like broadway, the music is also fun to listen to! Have a great day! : )Www@QuestionHome@Com
