Chet Baker brilliant at blowing.
Crap at crooning.
But his voice is not annoying me. Nils Landgren’s, who tries the same innocent/sexy tone, is…
Keith Jarrett! Shut up and play yer piano! To coin a phrase.
Van Bloody Morrison.
Mark Droning Knopfler.
Adele The Foghorn.
Weeping Lily Allen.
Lute-plucking Sting.
Beige Chris Martin.
Joanna The Duck Newsome.
Melody Let Me Flash My Arse Gardot.
Beth Let Me Over Emote Hart.
To name but a few.
As non singers seem to be allowed then I vote for Joe Pasquale. Gonna take some beating!
To be clear, I don’t mind jazz improvisations on the vocals. But he just misses too many notes. I have another album of his from the early 90s and the same is true.
Joni Mitchell’s voice annoys me. Cold fingers down a chalk board.
Paul McCartney. Cant sing or play.
I can’t stand “future islands”.
[edit to add] bl@@dy roon decided that the first track to follow the album I was listening to should be the aforementioned band grrrr
Katie Melua. I hate her voice and the lyric “feeling 22, acting 17” properly gets in my wick.
Bob Dylan… I’ve tried, I really have… but no.
You can blame Mike Batt for the words.
Mrs Skeptikal.
He can’t, anymore. His second stroke has left him with one useless arm.
I agree. And Fred Astaire can’t dance.
James Corden
Lady Gaga has a laughable stage name and an incomprehensible pop repertoire - but his duet with Tony Bennet shows a very high vocal level and maturity. Or so it seems to me.
Tina Turner.
She’s ok in very small dose’s
Yes, sometimes I feel so too. But she’s such a great artist that I find it easy to forgive her. Both sides, now is sung in a lower tone than usual, though, and the song is a small miracle from a 23-years old woman.
