Worst Singer?

[snackhead]

Janis "thanks for turning up" Joplin - I only watch this when I need to get annoyed enough to hit someone. Never fails

 

[danny la rouge]

My god, you're right. No Xmas for John Quays would sound SO much better if only someone with a decent, blue-eyed soul voice sang it.

Tom Jones can handle most genres.

Now that I'd like to hear.

Instead of the MES-esque "John Quays-ah", we'd have the Tom Jones-esque "John Quays - hoaahh".

Brilliant.

Tom Jones can handle most genres.

That tuneless bellowing fuckpig?

You should (actually you shouldn't) hear Tom's tribute acts -- around South Wales pubs, polluting the air with their versions of his songs, ca. 1 am, the Saturday night/Sunday morning after Wales have beaten England in the rugby

 

[William of Walworth]

The second or third live band I saw were The Teardrop Explodes, and that was probably the worst vocal performance I've witnessed/heard. Pretty flat. Maybe Julian had taken more drugs than usual.

It must have been the drugs -- he's got a perfectly good voice when he's taken less than 10 tabs of acid shortly before stagetime

 

[Augie March]

Rick fucking Witter.

 

[idioteque]

There's some shockingly out of tune lines in a few songs on Jerry Cantrell from AIC's solo album 'Degradation Trip'.

 

[Lisarocket]

That cunt with the wobbly head - David Gray.

Strangely, i think he's got a really good voice, but i can't abide Morrissey's whiney tones

Must be how the universe works then - if you like David Gray you must hate Morrissey and vice versa. Fortunately, I love Mozza and everything about him, including his voice, is perfect.

 

[half_eaten_arm]

has anyone sais that cunt from hard fi yet, i forgot a bout him..... fuck me now they are a shit band

 

[Pigeon]

Boy George

Oh, do fuck off! I'm hardly the bloke's greatest fan, but he's got a quality voice for all that.

 

[Pigeon]

Wot's 'er face Ellis Baxtor: now, she's shit.

 

[snackhead]

Simon le bon

 

[cliche guevara]

I listened to Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots yesterday, has anyone mentioned Wayne Coyne yet?

 

[pogofish]

and what about Sal solo - the baldy bloke in classix nouveaux - his singing was verging on comedy

I had actually forgotten all about him. Until you reminded me!

 

[chazegee]

-6.


Rage Against The Machine were good though.

Ohh, do you remember the mosh pit for that, wasn't there some loon in a wheel chair in there? :

 

[alsoknownas]

Lumidee falls into that category of can't really sing, but sounds good anyway (in a round-the-way-girl kinda way ).

 

[kained&able]

Morrisey. Obviously.

[Blagsta]

I can't believe no one's mentioned Bernard Sumner from New Order yet! He really can't sing.

 

[dodgepot]

aww fuck off. morrissey's ace.

 

[dream_girl]

No - what's wrong with his singing then? - he's great!

 

[dream_girl]

I can't believe no one's mentioned Bernard Sumner from New Order yet! He really can't sing.

well, technically. But who cares about that?

 

[dream_girl]

Oh, do fuck off! I'm hardly the bloke's greatest fan, but he's got a quality voice for all that.

I always found his voice extremely annoying.

 

[Blagsta]

well, technically. But who cares about that?

He sounds shit live.

 

[dream_girl]

He sounds shit live.

I only saw them once - they were excellent, though I understand I was very lucky. Back in the 80s I knew quite a few NO fans who were the first to admit NO were usually shit live.

 

[Blagsta]

I haven't seen them but I've seen and heard a few live recordings. He mostly sounds shit. And I say that as a New Order fan!

 

[cliche guevara]

No - what's wrong with his singing then? - he's great!

I agree that he's great, and I love the flips, but the bloke cannot sing for shit. His voice is really endearing, but he is so out of tune.

 

[rekil]

I can't believe no one's mentioned Bernard Sumner from New Order yet! He really can't sing.

Hooky is much worse. Mouthful of marbles or what. But neither of them are bad enough to be associated in any way with the likes of Brown.

 

[nino_savatte]

Curtis Stigers
Rick Astley (he sounds like a walrus in heat)

 

[nino_savatte]

Wot's 'er face Ellis Baxtor: now, she's shit.

She is friggin' awful. I can fart better than she sings.

 

[SpookyFrank]

I like hooky's singing on 'dreams never end'. He's obviously trying to be Ian Curtis but he doesn't do such a bad job of it
