Why do people like vocaloid?

Answer 1

I think because their weeaboo and they think everything anime is good, i have listen to a couple of Vocaloid songs but its really screechy and horrible. i stick to real people thank you very much --Ah, while it's true that there are a lot of weeby fans, I personally love the idea. Anyone can compose music and have a vocalist without hiring anyone or having to sing it themselves. I like writing music, but I can't sing for my life. If I wanted to publish something, I could buy a Vocaloid, write a bunch of songs using it, and sell an album. While it's true that they generally do not sound as pleasant as a real singer, it's no worse than a heavily autotuned singer, especially when edited well. As for liking Vocaloid songs, I tend to like the lyrics a lot, and if you find a popular song it's almost guaranteed to have several nice covers from the community, which lead to fun things like choruses and duets. It's also fairly easy to find Bass Guitar and piano covers for them, unlike with other music I like. The popular opinion seems to be that the lyrics are more meaningful and that the fanbase is more tightly-woven than anything in modern Western music, but I don't think that either of those are particularly true.
