Singers who IRRITATE you

[vegster]

I can cope with WILLIAMS, but Gary Barlow and his Cheshire whine really get to me, especially as the misuse fancies the pants off him, I keep pointing out that he is a BOSS-EYED DWARF, but to no avail. I had the misfortune of seeing him briefly on the Beeb last night, singing alongside BAZZA MANILOW, who looks as if he has been dripped in goose fat as a result of too many visits to the plastic surgeon, but at least he knows he's a tit.

I had the misfortune to turn on the TV at that point and saw Manilow " sing ". Well, I think he was singing but it was hard to tell as he has had such a tight facelift done that he can't seem to open his mouth wider than a slit .

Although I feel your pain, these people are now technically correct

If this is now the case, then what is the point of the word 'literally' if it can mean figuratively or actually literally?!
"I literally had a heart attack when I saw that"
"Omfgz lol"
"No, I actually did"
"Oh. Then why did you say literally?"

etc etc.

 

[OzMike]

All boy bands, Shakin' Stevens, girl bands such as Bewitched, Girls Aloud etc, Freddy Mercury and especially here, AC/DC and FFS Jimmy Barnes.

 

[Hiney]

Ellie Goulding

Celine Dion

 

[Sussex on Leith]

Bono.

There's nothing about him I like.

This - but also, purely on the basis of irritating whiny voices:

Damon Albarn (less so when Blur started using loads of scuzzy feedback and therefore disguising his voice)
Florence (of Machine fame)
Kate Nash

 

[The Large One]

Any wannabe singer of the wistful-misery-with-acoustic-guitar genre; seagulls over the rainbow of harmony and all that bollocks.

Joni Mitchell got there first and is the best exponent of it; the rest of you - leave it.

etc etc.

I literally agree with you 100%

Or do I?

FFS He looks like a cabbage patch doll. I cant stand that trollop who sings with M Poeple. Hate her voice

 

[Butch Willykins]

Joss stone. I believe some bloke was so irritated by her he hatched a plan to murder her.

Oh and Bono. I can't stand Bono. Trying to save the environment from his private jet.

 

[Braders]

A couple that have already been mentioned, Celine Dion, and Robbie Williams, but I'd also throw in Alexandra Burke. I saw her interviewed about a year, and a couple of minor "hits" after the X-factor, and she was all diva-tastic, sounding like she'd been around for YEARS. No love, you are NOT Beyonce, you are fighting and scrapping to avoid being the latest x-factor winner who bombs faster than George Bush with his finger on the button.

Alexandre Burke is f**king woeful , but so are most the X Factor lot.

 

[Greyrun]

Jake Bugg, one songs okay then he irritates big time.

 

[severnside gull]

anyone and everyone on x-factor

 

[Mellotron]

Ashley Barnes

 

[Badger]

If we're going on annoying voices, the lead singers of Kings of Leon and Red Hot Chilli Peppers.

 

[Mellotron]

Lily Allen
Kate Nash

Anyone like the above two who basically just speak their songs in a REALLY annoying affected "common" accent. There is ZERO talent in doing that, and some of both of the above's rhymes are utterly embarrassing.

The singer from that band The 1975 - horribly "fashionable" voice. No depth to it whatsoever.

Mumford and Sons, purely because the melody of every song is exactly identical.

 

[Acker79]

Liam Gallagher. Celine dion. Mariah Carey has started to these last five years or so. Justin bieber.

One of my favourites from Nashers:

"I've got a family,
And I drink cups of tea"



Also, agree on all of these, especially the bloke from the 1975.

 

[El Presidente]

FFS He looks like a cabbage patch doll. I cant stand that trollop who sings with M Poeple. Hate her voice

Heather Small, who also occasionally plays for Manchester United

 

[Norman Potting]

Ali Campbell, late of UB 40 is another mumbler and also has such a monotonous delivery to render their entire back catalogue depressing.

This to the power of n. UB40 are top of my "bands I actively dislike" - how many of them did it need to make their atonal monotous droning "music".
