Kashmir330 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Tom Waits. I just don't get it. On this same subject. Keith Richards once said; "If you want to torture me, just put me in a room and have Roger Daltrey sing at me." I love Tom Waits. He's one of my favorite singers. Not everyone understands though.

I have got a horsey Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 I'm a huge Dylan fan but I'll be the first to admit his voice is pretty much shot at this point. Voice-wise I can't tell the difference anymore between Bob Dylan and Marianne Faithfull Regina Spektor's singing really shits me off, I can't bear to listen to her crap. All new singers today just can't sing the fucking song, they have to ooze it and simper it and all this other crap. I blame American Idol/Mariah Carey/Christina Aguilera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 Simon Labon (sp?) from Duran Duran is my most hated! Mick Jagger is definitely up there along with Bob Dylan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imPLANTed Posted May 26, 2009 Share Posted May 26, 2009 (edited) Michael McDonald of Doobies, Steely Dan etc. should shut the fuck up Christopher Cross is in the same category as M. McDonald Totally agree!!! Wow, I can't believe someone else feels that way too! Edited May 26, 2009 by imPLANTed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footsteps of Dawn Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 John Fogerty. I have been hating that guy approximately since 4th grade. It sucks because I really like CCR's sound, but I HATE his voice. Let's see...don't like Geddy Lee or Axl Rose too much, either. I hate the guy from Chicago, too. There's nothing annoying about his voice, exactly...he just sounds like an uppity motherfucker, which goes with his extremely uppity mofo band. And one more thing.... Attention! Paging all non-singing members of Rascal Flatts: please fire your singer. He is a d-bag. Thank you, and have a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the fool Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I can't agree with Conor Oberst or Devendra Banhart. Their voices are an important characteristic of their music. They're part of an artistic whole, not just thrown in to add a human voice to organized sound. I personally love their voices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aquamarine Posted May 27, 2009 Share Posted May 27, 2009 I bet even on this board there are people who find Robert Plant annoying. Sometimes I get the impression that about 50% of them do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badgeholder Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Glad to see Billy Corgan on the list. Gawd! STOP IT! Leave that cat alone! Not a big fan of Dave Matthews voice either. Never could stand Geddy Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtazy Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Hmmm, kind of curious to see Geddy Lee on those lists, I think his voice is pretty unique. Maybe not the best, but certainly not annoying for my ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eternal light Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 (edited) I quite enjoyed when I last saw them in concert. It was a pleasant, sunny July morning. I had just finished eating a banana after finding my way to the concert grounds and nestling in with the thousands of others assembled there.

Broken Levee Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 His voice has never bothered me either but I've often seen him cited as the reason a lot of people don't seem to like Rush. I think his voice makes up the general sound of Rush. Him, Peart, and all the psychedelic keyboards. Without these key ingredients, esp Geddy's voice, there would be no Rush. At least not the Rush I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Dawg Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Axl Rose James Blunt Steve Perry Geddy Lee I have to co-sign on that Perry tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Levee Posted May 28, 2009 Share Posted May 28, 2009 Axl Rose James Blunt Steve Perry Geddy Lee Yeah, well I have to co-sign on Axl. What he did to Knocking on Heavens Door makes me want to scratch my eyes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
