[quote=Anonymous]Yeah people really don't understand what prodigy is. I think T Swift counts, she has been composing songs since she was a child and has continued extremely prolifically through her life. Joshua Bell and Tori Amos and Princec and Motzart for sure. I honestly don't know enough about a lot of artists to know if they were prodigies. But like, is Aretha Franklin a prodigy? I didn't think so. And that has nothing to do with her TALENT. It has to do with, specifically, musical skill. Celine Dion was recording albums at 12, that is what a prodigy is. It isn't a knock on Aretha for not being a prodigy but it is a specific thing. Singing is also different I think than other musical talents. Someone can have exceptional musical talent/skill and not be able to sing, there is a strong biophysical component to singing. [/quote]
