Just per some comic relief, or angst as it were, which vocalists just IrK you senseless? Where you beg the person playing the shit to change it, or leave the room and get another drink? Or leave the bash altogether if someone persists in torturing yer ear?
Here are some vocalists i quite truly get nauseous upon hearing just one note. I mean, truly, frightfully, runaway sick, no shit. Gut turning and Pepto jonesing:
1. Getty Lee
2. That matchbox 20 guy
3. that fool from Pearl Jam
4. that kloset freak from Cheap Trick
5. that REO guy
6. anyone from the Eagles/band or solo
7.Steve Tyler post 70's
8. the Yes/guy
9. the "rainbow" guy
10. even the Bad Co. guy
11. Plant unless it's HotH
12. the bootie guy with the flute? what's his name?
13. Fucking sinead
14. FUCKING chick in need of refills galore? The one who made a mint whining?
15.post 70's Joni
16.Jockstrap Mercury
Lord, there's so many more...whiners like Cat Stevens...even Earle gets to me when he's not bluesing it up....funny thing is, iAdOrE the classic nasals, i.e. Dylan, Neil, Petty, even Mark, of course K even now{though hardly "nasal",ever} why is that? Even Eric's fall is still heat vocalwise.
And another thing: i hate it when Mick makes fun of/rushes thru stuff at a gig; i.e. Ruby Tuesday on Flashpoint.Just makes a mock and i really think it sounds stupid.
That's enough for me today! Thanks Joey!

How could you forget Dave Matthews???
Sounds like: Yee yai yee yai eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaw

Well i'll tell ya man-- i could only stomach Rod in the Faces, but a lot of people seem to still dig 'im-- even with his crooning ala Saturday Night Live skits featuring a certain Bill.
You know who else takes away any and all appetite? that fuck from Skid Row. Man, i'd LOVE to have a go at him ala Oasis in Germany. What a fuckin idiot. And scissor that MTV moneymaker til he was foookin Marine ready 
See, now you got me on a roll here, and i hope to God i'm not boring nanker or MaXyB or anybody else like stonedinaustralia or sirmoonie. But that chick from Heart....my God. Those fools from ToneDefLepard/MotleyCorn/etc.etc. ad nauseum ad infinitum.
Come on. Eddie Arnold was a good one. How 'bout more Billys?

FFFG!
Yeah....how come we can stomach harmonies like the Police w/summers{at least i can-- Roxanne,So Lonely, maybe a couple more}but none of these guys solo? {except Neil,K,Mark for me, Mick for you, ala Veil, etc.}
I mean it bugs the crap outta me,K. It's like these guys get a halfway decent band gigging, they put a decent record or two out, they break up, and all of a sudden it's a lisence to go solo even if they suck vocally.
Like it's their job to keep their egos intact by plying us with their vapid bullshit.
I could start a new list here, ya know ?

I didn't like Sting with the Police either. I really disliked Police's sound.
Same with Queen-just not my cup of vodka... I really disliked their operatic, bombastic sound. |

| ~AzQb |
FFFG!
I DETESTed Queen from the git.
But Summers' reggae stuff-- i dug it in the beginning--and i had to give credit for just 3 guys making that sound. I mean, what was there to choose from then, really-- 'sides pulling out old Stones? Marley? Hendrix? Costello, some Pretenders, Ramones, oldest Cars, what else, really? 'sides yer Ig?
Everyone '81 on....what a destitute decade, no?
What did you listen to then,F?

Of the top of my head (Although the rap guys dont count as vocalists, because you have to actually be talented to be called a vocalist)
Nelly
R Kelly
Mariah Carey
that idiot who sang the titanic song (cant remember)
Sting
Marilyn Manson
Dave mathews
Paul Mc Cartney
Dylan (post 1980's) stop whining!
all other rappers |
|
|
| telecaster |
Sammy Haggar.
Dude from Creed
Marc Anthony
All equally sickening |

Well the "hair" ain't so bad now, but how, O HOW, could i have forgotten JonPomPomJovi?
He's PRiMe IrK.

Very timely post. We've been listening to "Classic Rock" all day at the office and I forgot how much I detest:
Lead singers (hell, most of their songs) of:
Rush (Getty Lee)
REO Speedwagon
Boston
Journey (Steve Perry)
ELO (sorry, Jeff Lynne)
Bad Company
Yes
I would also agree to include all Rappers (especially that idiot Eminem), Dave Matthews and Mariah Carey.
The worst of all though, the one that makes me violently ill and I have to cover my ears is Canada's "songbird" Anne Murray!!!!!!
OMG--got to put on some Stones immediately!!!
LadyJ.
PS. Forgot about David Lee Roth. Awful!!

How could I forget?!?!
Alanis Morissette
Damn is she annoying on so many levels |

I would punish myself through listening to all of the above mentioned, for an hour a piece...rather than subjecting myself to Yoko Ono for 5 minutes.
Have a great day everyone!  |

Dude from Creed is about as annoying as anyone I've ever heard.
And to some of yins out there, I hope "With arms wide opppppppennnnnnnnnnnnnnnn......with arms wide opppppppennnnnn.........." gets stuck in your mind for the rest of the day.
Later

...and speaking of the Billy, why did Faithfull feel it necessary to jump on THAT crap? Come on-- her voice has been shot for years-- but even Mick made a better choice having Krapitz back him, and HIS voice is still stellar!
Why didn't Faithfull pull someone like Crow? or even Jakob D. if she was goin that route? I hate to say it, but the mutual admiration society on ThAt count looks suspiciously like-- dare i say it-- "liking ego stroking of young buck."
Marianne, Marianne, Marianne.
No holy grail yet, huh.

Oh Lordy.....
Annie, you did this just to torture me didn't you. You just KNEW I'd start to pondering...and be horrified by what I found.
I probably won't be able to sleep tonight!
So far, you all have done remarkably well. I'll try not to mention any that have already been mentioned.
Did some one say Robert Plant? I forget.
Well, I'll say Robert PLant again, just to be safe. Besides, he's sucks so bad that he SHOULD be tagged twice!
Peter Frampton! Ggggggggaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
The mere mention of this dickwad's name has been known to set me to throwing things. I swear, I actually go into convulsions when I hear him skewer Beatles songs.
The Crash Test Dummies guy. He sounds like me in the shower trying to do opera!
Wacko Jacko. Grow a set pal.
Any of the so called R&B "Divas". Pick a fucking note and stick with it.
The Foreigner guy. Man, that was some hack singing there.
I'll take some shit for this, especially in light of recent events, but I can't stand the Bee Gee's vocals. I hated Andy Gibb too. Icky-poo.
Any of the "new" country singers. I mean, take your pick, male or female. They all blow.
The Starland Vocal Band. Say Whaaaaaaaaaaa? They sell insurance, and teach grade school now. Yeah, no shit. What a shock. Ever see their short lived variety show? YIKES!
I'm sure there's LOTS more, but this is starting to scare me. I just KNOW that I'll have nightmares of Peter Frampton singing Sgt Pepper's....FUCK!! |

Louden Wainwright III. Where is that asshole judge from American Idol when we need him? Somebody should send him a list of those mentioned here so he can personally rag on them.
