Bad Singers?

Ok. I've read alot of posts of singers that you guys say are annoying, but you never drop any names. I was wondering, what are you guys' opinions on bad singers? I know that a voice should be different for each genre, so who is good and bad in their respective genres?

Singers I think are good for their genre:
Dave Matthews/Jason Mraz/John Mayer/Jack Johnson, Jordan Pundik, Jim Adkins, John and Brian (Nine Days). They are just a very very few that I have time to write now. So who do you like dislike?

David Lee Roth. He has horrible range, and when he tries to hit the high notes, I just cringe. Dont get me wrong, I love Van Halen, but "Diamond" Dave is just horrible.

Great Serge... we are already three. How disgusting she is. What a difference with Shania Twain (I saw both in a superbowl performance, with Sting in the end). By the way, the woman Singer that deserves heaven, without doubt, is Karen Carpenter.

I definitely agree with the Chris Cornell bit. That man was excellent in Soundgarden and if its possible hes better in Audioslave.

I have to agree with Chris Cornell as well. It seems to me most people either love his voice or completely hate it. I have always thought it is awesome. Personally, I like truly unique voices, like the dude from Crash Test Dummies. I would say my favorite to sing along with is Rusted Root. Michael Glabicki has incredible range, IMO. Of course, I've also always loved Michael Hutchence's voice, so what do I know? ;)

Even though I like him, no one has a voice that can grate on your nerves like John Lydon.

Well, I've always loved Zakks voice myself. Especially on his older stuff. The new BLS album sounds processed all to hell I think. As for sounding like Ozzy there are like 3 songs where he gets that flair even one track with Ozzy on it, but I don't hear it in the rest. Difference in ears I guess. He also does a spot-on Robert Plant.


I really dislike the dude from Queensryche or however its spelled. He can sing but his style just grates on my nerves, vocalist in Jag panzer is in same catagory.

Also on this list is:

Bob Dylan

Willie Nelson: although i love his stuff and the way his voice comes off if that makes any sense.

Kid Rock: I like some of his stuff, but when he really tries to sing his voice is lifeless.

Kenney Wayne Shepards frontman. Too weak for this style of music IMO

I'll just stop now lol this list could go on and on.... :)

Later,

Matt
