Hmm... Themonkeyofdoom said earlier that this category should only be used for band/group vocalists, but I'm proposing it should be used for all singers because there are some artists that only do instrumental music, like Oshio Kotaro. (He doesn't have a page at the time of posting, so here's his Wikipedia entry.) --Lambchopsuey 18:41, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
- I still feel like they shouldn't be loped together in the same category. If I was talking to someone I wouldn't say "You know that vocalist, Hamasaki Ayumi?", I'd say "You know that singer, Hamasaki Ayumi?" We can deffinatly create something like Category:Instrumentalists for artists like Oshio Kotaro. Maybe we should make it like this: Singer for people like Hamasaki, Vocalist for singers of bands/groups, and Singer-Songwriter for all the people who write their own music & lyrics.
