Most irritating vocalist
Whose voice bothers you the most? I'm not talking about the style of music; I'm talking about the way a vocalist uses his or her voice. So if you hate country, or hair metal, that's not what I'm talking about and you shouldn't just rattle off names of singers in genres you dislike. I'm talking about vocalists who use their voice in such a manner that it drives you crazy.
My vote goes to Peabo Bryson. It's not bad enough that he sounds like he just got kicked in the nuts, but his voice wavers in and out as if someone is rapid-cycling the volume control from 1 to 10 every second.

Missy Higgins. Annoying Aussie singer. No matter what fucking word she says, it sounds like there's 20 more letter "a"'s in there than there should be.

Nothing more need be said.
I do think he's gotten better than he was but he still sucks.
How can someone write so many good songs and have no frickin' clue how to sing them without making them sound like crap?

Macy Gray grinds my tits, too, she sounds like King Louie from the jungle book only with less variability and more smoking.
The Bee Gees and Wheatus fucking infuriate me, men just aren't meant to sound like that. "I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby, got two tickets to iron maiden baby." ARGHHHHHHHHH!

Pink. Haven't heard any songs from her except Stupid Girls, and that's two songs too many. I always start looking for fire axes or other implements of destruction when I hear that song, her vocie is so annoying. And much the same goes for Ninja Sarasalo's song Fashion.

Why is it so goddamned hard to get little assholes like you to admit it when you fuck up? Is it pride? What gives you the right to have any pride?

Dylan is an acquired taste, if anything. He's not an artist that lends himself easily to extended listening. There's a reason he's known more as a lyricist than a musician.
I have a few:
Scott Stapp
James Hetfield
Robert Plant on Battle of Evermore (do your worst, fuckers)
John Fogerty (honestly, I find the guy's voice so irritating I can't listen to Creedence songs)

I'm studying for the CPA exam. Have a nice summer, and if you're down just sit back and realize that Joe is off somewhere, doing much worse than you are.

Mariah Carey. The vocal equivalent of senseless guitar wanking. Using 50 notes to sing what should be a one syllable word gets stupid pretty fast. Even worse is that a whole bunch of aspiring singers thought it was cool and started imitating her.

Lusankya: Deal!
Say, do you want it to be a threesome with your wife? Or a foursome with your wife and sister-in-law? I'm up for either.

With that in mind, Fantasia Borrino, the worst American Idle winner. Diana DeGarmo owned that fucking bitch., GODDAMMIT! WHY THE FUCK DID FANTASIA WIN? YOU KNOW WHY? FUCKING SYMPATHY VOTE BECAUSE THAT IDIOT HAS A CHILD. SHE CANNOT SING. I HATE HER SLURRS. 10 SLURS IN ONE WORD. GAWD!aerius wrote:Mariah Carey. The vocal equivalent of senseless guitar wanking.

Whoever sings that song that goes, "You're BEAUTIFAHL, you're BEAUTIFAHL, it's TROOOOOOO" that teenage girls seem to want to listen to obsessively.
Fucking drives me up a wall.
Also the bitch from Black Eyed Peas, which I detest anyway. Even so, her voice in particular just reeks of whiney diva bitch.

Nelly Furtado, just can't stand her voice.
I second Linkin Park, beacuse i like their music and in the recording studio they must do some serious magic because on albums they sound half decent. When live they sound like shit. There's just such massive gulf between what they sound like lie and in the studio that it just kills the musioc for me.

But we need to do more than destroy him. If we merely release the world from his presence, they'll start playing it as a tribute and it'll never go away . He must be wiped from the timeline.
I suggest calling Dr. Who.

See, this is why I think it's critical that you like a song the first time around. If repitition is the only thing that can save it, then there is something fundamentally wrong, aka, it blows.18-Till-I-Die wrote: I'll throw my lot in there too.
