Singers whoose songs you just can't stand
Now, this is not about the singer as person, its about their music, songs, lyrics, whatever.
Choose anyone you want. Me?
Missy Higgins. I fucking hate her singing. A new song of hers just came out and I'm being subjected to her particular brand of drivel every day at least three times. I think what makes me despise her singing is her accent. She's Australian, so I don't get where the hell it comes from, but its awful- nearly every word she utters i horribly mangled, as if there are letters inserted there that don't belong. For example, we all know how to say the word ... "sleep". The Missy Higgins (TM) way? "Sleaaaeeeeeeppppp" It's as if every word she utters has twenty "a's" in it. How can people enjoy this shit?
Ugh. Shits Me right off.
Rant off.

Harry Chapin. Creator of such long shitty songs like "Cats in The Cradle". His songs all go for 5 minutes and are long and saddening.
Cat Stevens. Slightly happier version of Chapin.

Let's see, there's Britney Spears and all the other Britney Spears look a likes. Talk about unredeemable garbage. Don't get me wrong, they certainly have above average musical talent, but that can't save the shit they stamp on to CDs and sell to horny 14 year olds. I'm sure they know that their success is based on marketing and that they aren't contributing anything of value to the world of music, I just wish their fans would figure that out too.
The most basic assumption about the world is that it does not contradict itself.

I thought the story was he had Jesus, then he lost him and wound up in rehab, and then he found Jesus again and is threatening to start singing again at any moment.Superman wrote:Coke bender? That dude is a fucking fundie nutcase. That's why he quit Creed! He wants to be a solo Christian singer.RedImperator wrote:That hatfucker who used to front Creed before he went on a huge coke bender.

Lil John....the man literally only says "WHAT! Yeahhhhh!!" throughout his rap. I already can't stand that rap hip hop shit but he epitomizes why that genre blows ass.

Avril Lavigne. But as I've said on previous occasions, I would not hesitate to fuck her.
Also, Lil Jon, and as I've said on previous occasions, I would not hesitate to fuck him up. Badly.
Most pop singers, actually. Like that annoying guy from Yellowcard. And the annoyingly pretenious Evanescene girl. And BON JOVI.

IiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIeieieieie will alwayyyys loooooooooooooove Yaaaaaooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuu ah ah ooooooooooooooooooo!!!
The Bodyguard was a suck ass piece of shit movie too.
Can't say I'm fond of Mariah Carey either. Back in the day she was cute and hightly fuckable (especially when she squeeked out those high notes) but now I just cant stand her singing. She's still attractive but being I just don't find the squeeking works with her being older.

Shania Twain, she's easy on the eyes, but her vioce reminds me of fingernails on a blackboard.
Maria Carry, that super high pitched squeel she does makes me think someone was raping a dolphin in the studio.
Every single last one of those weakassed Emo-bands. If I wanted to listen to whiny, pretentious assholes I'd read some goth-kid's blog poetry.
Good Charlott. If you think that shit is punk then you probably also believe that Jello Biafra is a new flavor of Jell-O.

Morrissey, but that might have something to do with my flatmates habit of playing th Smiths at 2 in the fucking morning more than his voice.
And Nelly Furtuardo (sp). "She has a unique voice" is the same as saying it's shit!

Macy Gray. I'm convinced she gargles with shards of glass.
I can't stand Billie Holliday.
Justin Timberlake must die. Male singers just should not use falsetto, never mind have it comprise their entire vocal range.

Do you remember the song Mickey by Tony Basil? Aroung 1999 (IIRC) the song was performed again by a bunch of "supposed-to-be-cute" chicks called Lolly.
Oh, and for more horrible tunes, try Aqua's songs like Barbie Girl and Dr. Jones.
IMHO, that's too bad, since Aqua CAN do some good songs like Turn Back Time.
But the I haven't even came up with the biggest nightmare yet.....
Well, do you still remember Asereje? Well if you think Las Ketchup is bad enough, few years ago there were a bunch of Hong Kong male singers did a version of that song. Yes. I'm talking about Asereje performed by MALE singers. With the same hand motions.
