Subject: Singers that you think have horrible voices

Written By: Mergal on 05/09/05 at 8:57 pm

Anne Murray---call me weird, but I just don't care for her voice
Rod Stewart----when is his throat ever going to heal up?!
the late Janis Joplin----her voice was so raspy

I probably have more, but my mind's blank at the moment so I'll probably just add some more later.

Yep, forgot to add Steve Tyler (aka lead singer of Aerosmith)----he sounds like a two-year-old having a tantrum.

Feel free to throw popcorn and soda cans my way (I'm already overdue for mentioning "We Built this City" as an alltime fave song, LOL!), but I actually like Aerosmith, Rod Stewart & Stevie Nicks -- their 80's material at least. :D

However, to contribute, the first one to come to mind is Michael Sweet of Stryper.

Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of a Christian hard rock band in the White Lion/Def Leppard vein (even though I'm non-religious) but a little different lyrically. But that dude's voice is so gratingly high - even for an 80's hair band. It actually sounds like that's his normal voice, even when he sings softly.

I think they could've been a great band with another frontman.

there are a lot of bad ones out there but these are some of the worst in my oponion

Lead singer of Saves The Day
Lead singer of The Darkness
Alanis Morissette
Britney Spears
Ashlee Simpson

Those are the main ones that when the come on the radio I have to change stations because of their voice, but they are far from the only bad singers out there.

Ok, I know I'm going to have some Pepsi cans thrown at me, but I think that these artists have wonderful voices:  Alanis Morissette, Jewel, Mariah Carey (hey not many people can do those vocal gymnastics without sounding silly), Whitney Houston.  :-[

Another horrible voice in my books: Cyndi Lauper.  Reminds me of finger nails on a chalkboard.

BTW, "We Built This City" is not a bad song. I don't know why it gets bashed so much.

I'm not too big a fan of theirs in general, but I love 'em based on just one song, "Listen to the Music." This would be a good candidate for the "70's summertime music" thread -- just a nice pop-oriented rocker.

Rip on Fred Durst all ya want, though! I heard enough Bizkit in 1999-2001 to last a lifetime (the only positive there is since not much could be worse, everything else I hear has gotta be better by default!).

It's this kind of comment, Mr Tumnus, that doesn't make me want to shut my stupid mouth - live with the fact that people have different opinions and you might get along with them better.

and quit making unnecessary insulting replies to my posts.

How short-sighted are you? Lol. Read back through the thread and look at the amount of times you have insulted me personally. Now look through the thread again and look at the amount of times I have insulted you - none! That's right! None! All I have insulted (if anybody) is Stevie Nicks and that is because I say she sounds like a goat! My intention was humour but it appears that was wasted on you. You have given me no reason to change my attitude.

Looking at your twee sickly sweet posts - you're like a old grandmother, not a young man.

If this is something beyond Stevie Nicks let me know in a PM (and make sure your PM is unblocked this time so I can reply back  ::)). I'm not really too bothered what you think I am. I'll let you know what I am. I am an emotive person who cares about people! I care when people on the board say they have gone through crap experiences because I have gone through many myself and nothing to do with sentiment!

For me it's a matter of taste. I always have enjoyed the original Doobie Brothers. Michael McDonald always sounded like he was singing with a sock stuffed in his mouth...though I actually like a few of thier songs with him on lead :)
