Thanks, Chris. I know Brandon Flowers from the Killers was upset about the tuning on the first record, so apparently he has gone tuning-free for subsequent records. Listen to the last half of "Read My Mind" for an example. Your question is a philosophical one. One that is asking about authenticity, just like Fred Armisen asking if the chicken is local on that Portlandia sketch. But while we might be able to trace a chicken back to a particular farm, we can't know how the exactly how records are made for a variety of reasons.
Off the top of my head: 1 access to the people who made the record 2 whether or not they remember how it was made 3 protection of trade secrets and sensitivity of the artist So with all those complications, I think the best way to find out who can sing is to see them live, and even then they might be lip-synching or having their vocal tuned live like the old ATR Basically: it's a jungle out there. Of course, if you discover the artist and do the record yourself, you'll always know Things have now "progressed" to where there really is no such thing as a "major artist".
Just a few years back, the sales which today would constitute a "top ten hit" would barely land a record in the top back then. There are now folks making more money from an obscure record than a "hitmaker" gets from a "hit". The Warmth. Like major label stars? Pretty sure Adele doesn't. Certainly not live and I can't hear it in the records. She re-started her George Michael live tribute when she realised she was out of key.
Rappers that dont sing. Brent Hahn. That Brandon Flowers quote is Someone mentioned Adele above Unless you were there Ken Walker. My Studio. Alicia Keys? I was adamant about not using it this time. You really hear what my voice sounds like, for the first time.
I'm all for mistakes, but even if you don't want tuning, you can still do it again and get it right! And yes, if you're not there, you don't know for certain. I know what you mean.. Thanks everyone for chiming in. Yes actual live singing, usually gives a better clue. They're using pitch "enhancement" there too! Originally Posted by chessparov2. I would doubt that Eddie Vedder uses tuning. Not saying that he'd be against it ethically or anything; just that I couldn't see it working on his voice.
His singing around notes is so much a part of his emotional sound. But I'm not there, so who really knows. I think a lot of people would be surprised at what's been tuned up. I think the OP's question could be modified to say is there anyone worth listening to who uses Auto Tuning. When he performs live, his vocals are spot on while he dazzles fans with guitar and keyboard loops.
Most notably is the movie Yesterday, in which he has some hilarious lines. We suggest watching his performance at the 59th Grammy Awards.

For years, Taylor Swift has denied using auto-tune. Proof of this would be some of her earlier performances in which she was off-pitch.
Forever valiant, Taylor Swift would rather be known as an off-key singer than one who is inauthentic and relies upon auto-tune. This singer was born in Hawaii in and named Peter Gene Hernandez. Peter changed his name to Bruno Mars.
Does Bruno use auto-tune live? Texas native Kelly Clarkson became a household name when she won American Ido in This made her the first artist to win Best Pop Vocal Album twice.

He may not have been the winner on the 8th season of American Idol , but he was sure able to lock down his claim to fame after his involvement in the show.

He feels his music connects with people just the way it is. Another beautiful voice found though the hit TV show American Idol. Clarkson had what it took to make it big before she even stepped on stage. Kelly has spoken about the old days when she first got her foot in the door and used autotune.
