Worst singers

[Sansui Louie]

There's an article on Yahoo today about their take on The 10 Worst Singers.

http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/listoftheday/17793/the-ten-most-annoying-singers

Your candidates? Thoughts on their selections?

My first choice was Tiny Tim, who made Yahoo's list. My second choice would be that dork from Nickelback who insists on singing as if he's vomiting every line into the porcelain god.

My 12 year old girl says this guy has to be the worst of all time.She will make a fuss to change the station kinda quiklike.GOD BLESS MY GIRL

[Sandy G]

That group "4-Non Blondes", their singer sounded like she was in extreme agony, & wanted all of her listeners to be the same way...

Hmm...........

My top 10:
1) james Blunt. I swear that I will destroy whatever is playing him next time I hear it.
2) Tiny Tim
3) John Mayer
4) Michael Bolton
5) Scott Stapp
6) Geddy Lee (Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Rush, but damn......)
7) The original AC/DC "singer"
8) the new(er) AC/DC "singer"
9) janis Joplin (again, love her, but she cannot sing....)
10) Ozzy after Black Sabbath

I try to forget about them. Unfortunately, most girls my age are enamored with them.. Fortunately, I spin the music wherever I am (usually), so that is no problem.

No, Mr. James F*cking Blunt (You're Beautiful) is even worse.

 

[Bauler]

The worst voice? Any voice that needs auto-tune or an electronic crutch to make sound decent--- I piss on that fake talent!

Captn' Kirk

 

[Saint Johnny]

And now in the 'hard rock' category: I nominate, both Vince Neil and David Lee Roth.

Captn' Kirk

oh god........

 

[Art K.]

For me any late model Bob Dylan I find painful to listen to. I love the man and his music but my god I wish he would spare us the voice (so to speak).

And here's a blast from the past...

Jim Nabors

 

[soundboy]

William Hung....enuff said.

 

[drknstrmyknight]

Michael Buble is a hack.

and then there's this guy:

 

[Urizen]

Yoko and Linda.

 

[Drybasement]

Leonard Nimoy

 

[rickr15]

Serge from System of a Down. And whoever that singer was for "The Darkess". Both singers are like nails on a chalkboard to me.

I gotta second Linda and Yoko as well.

 

[wineslob]

Yoko OHNO! has got to be #1. Roseanne Barr was hedious, but she knows it.

 

[RayW]

7) The original AC/DC "singer"

That'd be Bon Scott.

8) the new(er) AC/DC "singer"

That'd be Brian Johnson.

I don't know about a top 10, but for me Bob Dylan would probably be at or near the top of any list. Janis Joplin's up there. And kris kristofferson. I don't listen to enough newish pop music to know many of those listed in linked article.

Yoko and Linda.

Linda wasn't all that bad...she's a decent background singer. I like her harmonies on "Ram" and "Band On The Run".

Yoko, on the other hand... I think I'd rather listen to a chorus of dissimilar European police sirens and digital clipping.
