Are there any singers whose voice you intensely dislike ?

[Hacienda71]

All the talentless talent show auditioners (Xfactor etc) who sing with a vibrato style because they think it makes them sound good rather than having any discernable talent. 🤔

Just remembered - Slim Whitman

I remember once we were in a pub after work and there were a lot of loud annoying people everywhere
AND we discovered a fault on the nearest juke box control station which allowed us to put loads of songs on for one 10p

so we put on every Slim WHitman song we could find then left

 

[Jameshow]

Sam Ryder
Robbie Williams
Elton John

 

[Baldy]

There seems to be the thing for very lispy whining spanish girl singers at the moment. Really drives me up the wall. Luckily now I'm retired I don't listen to the radio so much.

The woman from M People.
What a dreadful drone she had.

Paolo Nuttini.

He used to sound good, then started singing like an old man who’d forgotten to put his teeth back in.

Althea and Donna

Whitney

I thought, when she started, she was good but then she introduced all that warbling and IMO went down the pan.

I like listening to Mick Hucknall and simply Red , but soon as I hear him talk that's it

Need I say anything more than Mariah Carey's jazz warble. Must be sung with the height of your hand indicating the note. If only I could get through one Xmas without hearing her, that would go down as the best Xmas ever!

Bono but for his hypocritical proselytising on matters outside of his musical area. Why do musicians think they have a voice worth listening to?

 

[Time Waster]

One more point, musicians I disliked when younger I have started to find I actually like as I've matured. For example I actually think Prince was an amazing musical talent now but disliked his music when it first came out. How many of the current musicians I hate now will I find out I like some time in the future?

Feargal Sharkey and
Lloyd Cole and the commotions,
Aghhhh

The lead singer of the Editors and the shouty bloke from Bloc Party spring to mind
