Most vocals you hear are fake

Indeed.

The more I think about this video, the more pissed off I get.

As if anyone would really hear a song on the radio and think to themselves, "I can't stand this song because there's no way that singer would be able to sing it live the exact same way!"

This guy's a fucking asshole.

Yeah I completely disagree with performance. I'm all about well recorded albums. I couldn't give a shit if it can be performed live, they don't call it "recording arts" for no reason, recording/ mixing/ engineering is an art! Look at My Bloody Valentine's "Loveless" - an album that is highly regarded and cost so much to engineer that it put a well known record label out of business. It took them 20 years or so to be able to perform that album live.

A good analogue would be considering a film that is turned into a stage show... or an animated movie that is made into a life-action flick.

You can't do the same things on stage versus film, nor in film versus animation, but that doesn't really have anything to do with the overall "purpose" of the entertainment/story.

Interesting, but his whole premise is "the purpose of a song is to be performed," and that's a rather subjective, and I'd argue invalid, statement.

My natural reaction to all of this is: "So what?"

The purpose of a song isn't to be performed live, it's to make money through entertaining, and the purpose of performing live isn't to sing identically to a recording, but to make money through entertaining.
