Singers who IRRITATE you

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

OK, big famous annoying computer-fixed muppets like Victoria Beckham notwithstanding:

Elton John after yellow brick road (shouting isn't singing, Reg)
Bloke from Simple Minds after the 4th album (same reason, jock)
Whichever fat lump it was from Bachman Turner Overdrive who 'sang'
Jim Dandy (Black Oak Arkansas)
That silly tit Anderson in Yes
That cock who copied Thom Yorke (skinny little bugger in Muse - get yer own style, son)
The bloke who can't sing in My Bloody Valentine
Tiny Tim (FFS)
Fish (no, mate, you are not Peter Gabriel)
Chas and/or Dave (Gercha the **** out of here!)
Des O'Connor
Toyah (OK, 'It's a mithtery is great', but one hit wonders should have the good manners to fade away)
Hazel O'Connor (an ex of mine shagged her apparently, if that's the right word for ladies doing it together. Can't sing, though)
Noddy Holder (I love 'coz I luv you', but see above re one hit wonders)
That Canadian poet folk singer idiot, who remains a heart throb for Canadian women of a certain age. Forget his name.
Donovan. Its the dopey lyrics more than the rubbish voice, for me.
Tom Jones. Sorry mate, but you sound like a pub singer with a massive haemorrhoid.
Diana Ross. Never got her at all. Cheesy syrup (a very nasty comestible)
Greg Lake. Sounds like a sixth former in a middle class grammar school imitating a 'rock musician'. Lucky man.
Bob Dylan. Piss-taking twerp. He doesn't even try to sing. Probably because he can't. Mind you I like 'Sarah'.
The black geezer who went to King's College. His mug is on a billboard on the strand. Dreadful singer. Dunno his name. Begins with an 'O' I think.

Yuck - I have to stop now or I will vomit up my monkfish . . . .

 

[Zen Frenzy]

Jon Bon Jovi and virtually every other preening, hair-metal, "wouldn't you love to shag me" berk of that ilk.

I would also pay good money to see Mumford and Sons repeatedly knocked out by Mike Tyson to the Crossroads theme tune.

 

[Stat Brother]

I take it Craig David has been mentioned.

 

[Fountainhead]

Katy Perry. Saw her on telly talking about her new, more emotionally based, reflective serious direction based more on emotions than outward expression. They then cut to a VT of her in a leapord print bikini with her tits lunging toward camera roaring and singing to an elephant. What a ****.

Katy Perry where do I start, well how about a few lyrics

Cos baby you're a firework
Come on show em what you're worth
Make go ooh ooh
As you shoot across the sky

And

The girls a freak, she drives a jeep

Party Fears 2 was a classic song- Billy Mackenzie had an amazing voice. The bass player in that shot was Mick Dempsey from Crawley.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

David Bowie - Pretentious claptrap

 

[Bolton va va]

Aye. I don't have a strong opinion about overblown tosspots U2, but it's clearly significant that Bono spelt backwards is O'Nob.

Talk about confirming your prejudices !! Last night i saw the film "Muscle Shoals" about the small Alabama town where an incredible number of great - mainly soul but later the Rolling Stones & others - records were produced & recorded with loads of interesting interviews with artists & people involved.....but for some reason the worthless thoughts of that tit Bono kept being crowbarred in, even though he didn't appear to have been to Muscle Shoals.

Very sad that a prize **** like Bono should intrude into & slightly mar such a good film.

 

[beakyburn]

Robbie Williams.

Correct. He who performed on the children in need concert as a latter day Sinatra and not as the fat one who wasn't good enough for a put together boy band.

 

[joeywortho]

richard ashcroft

what a c unt and what a sh1t voice

 

[Double Hard Bastard]

Pete Doherty sucks the swet off dead men's balls! The mans a burke!

 

[Mellotron]

David Bowie - Pretentious claptrap

..........

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

I only really like about 16 bands and singers, all the rest are noise to me and don't fly my flag. Can't be arsed naming my 'not likers'!

TNBA

TTF

PS I really hate Paul Macartney, all boy band singers and Katie Melua.

 

[melias shoes]

Lilly Allen murdering keanes' somewhere only we know on that waitrose advert. Woeful.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Lilly Allen murdering keanes' somewhere only we know on that waitrose advert. Woeful.

John Lewis.

I think it's very nice!

Not the greatest fan of queen if truth be known

Can we have a list?

 

[Pixelated Penguin]

Stevie Wonder

 

[brakespear]

richard ashcroft

what a c unt and what a sh1t voice

I thought this for ages but 'The Drugs Don't Work' won me over eventually. Better than listening to a lot of the other more popukar bands of the time too (eg Oasis).

 

[The Truth]

Anyone in the 'singing end' at Withdean for the last few seasons. All on the list.

 

[Jesus Gul]

Usher, Akon and the like

 

[BadFish]

Magnificent front man and lyricist, saw him a number of times and always put on a good show. A Northern Soul remains one of my favourite albums.

 

[The Spanish]

cant stand the verve never got them.

paul kaye was a much better richard ashcroft than richard ashcroft.


the drugs dont work is just a britpop 'living years'.
