I think he's a great player because he sound great to me, you're right about that, but that's what music is about isn't it? The most important thing is having it sounding good isn't it?
What I meant was that you can compare Richie and Clapton together because they're both great. But comparing an average guitarplayer with someone who ís talented doesn't make sense and is silly.

And saying this is just stupid. She hasn't got a clue of what makes a guitarplayer a good guitarplayer, but because it's Keith Urban, the guy is very talented anyway and could give any rock guitarist a run for their money.

Yes it comes down to sounding good, but it's not what Becky is talking about. All her Keith Urban stuff is about him being talented, him being a good guitar player, him being this, and in fact it's all blown out of proportion because of her obsession with the guy.

Even if the classical painoist plays longer and more complicated songs then the comtemporary pianoist, it doesn't necessarily mean that he's better in piano playing than the comtemporary pianoist in every aspect.
I get your point, but this is also not what Becky is doing. She just comes up with her new found idol and compares him to whoever, because it's Keith Urban. Not because he's talented, not because he's good on guitar, but because he's Keith Urban, and therefore talented. If Keith would be outstanding, or indeed very good in his style, you would be able to compare him to Richie, because both have a very good own style.

The thing with Becky is: As long as it's her idol, the guy is talented and one of the best anyway. This was the case a few years ago with Jon, Jon was the best in everything he did and until krb started to face her with her own obsession it kept going on and on. The same happens now with Keith Urban. And it's annoying as hell.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Sebastiaan, you could be right and you made some good points, i can't disagree with the things you said because i can't recall all the artists that Becky compared Keith Urban to and i don't know some of the artists she mentioned. But i'm sure Becky could be right about Keith Urban's guitar playing in comparison to (at least) some other guitar players as she does know alot more about Keith Urban than most of us.

And Javier, yep, you're right.
It's pianist not pianioist. Sorry, my mistake.
