View Full Version : Is there any singer that you cringe when you hear their voice?
Brian Damage 12-06-2005, 11:27 AM I'm not talking about a song that you hate, but a singer's actual voice that irritates you. Growing up, I use to go into convulsions when I heard Carly Simon or James Taylor's voice. Actual convulsions! I since grew out of it, but I still don't like the sound of their voices.
Sterling Holobyte 12-06-2005, 11:36 AM Gwen Stefani.
When I first heard her sing, I was like, well, that's interesting. But that got old really fast and now I just find her nasal voice irritating.:barf:
Janice Johnson 12-06-2005, 12:20 PM Ashley Tisdale. She plays Maddie on The Suite Life of Zack And Cody.When she sang in one episode, her voice was high and shrill. She sang annoyingly. :eek: some even say that her voice sounded as if she'd sucked on helium........:eek: It wasn't a pretty sound.........
The Chauffeur 12-06-2005, 12:42 PM Britney Spears, I hate that grunt she does while she sings. It's like they record her singing while she's sitting on the toilet. puke:
Sterling Holobyte 12-06-2005, 02:50 PM Britney Spears, I hate that grunt she does while she sings. It's like they record her singing while she's sitting on the toilet. puke::lol:
Why not, that's where her career has gone.
Chad Michael Murray 12-06-2005, 03:35 PM I had a feeling somebody was going to bring Britney into this. :( Lmao
I'm going to go with Eminem. I used to absolutely HATE him, then I really liked him for a while and now I just sort of casually like him...but I could take it or leave it.
Anyway, he has some catchy songs, but that nasaly singing voice he uses sounds to me like Fran Drescher is taking up a career in rapping.
Dr. Thong 12-06-2005, 05:22 PM Bob Dylan. Great songwriter, but the guy's voice just gets to me.
If Michael Bolton comes on, I have to turn the radio off. The guy sounds like he has a migraine or is in extreme pain. I'm not joking this time.
Dean Winchester 12-06-2005, 06:53 PM Bob Dylan. Great songwriter, but the guy's voice just gets to me.

I like some of Bolton's music, but I won't lie... he sounds like he's going through a particularly violent bout with constipation on his "When A Man Loves A Woman"
Dean Winchester 12-06-2005, 06:56 PM I'm not talking about a song that you hate, but a singer's actual voice that irritates you.

I guess Carly and James' "Mockingbird" is one of your favorite songs ever then? :lol:
I love Carly Simon's music, but James Taylor's extremely nasal voice grates on my last nerve, I can't stand it, not to say he has bad music, but that voice really keeps me from liking it.
Tuesday Weld 12-06-2005, 07:00 PM Bob Dylan. Great songwriter, but the guy's voice just gets to me.

Oh, God, Michael Bolton, I agree. puke:
Tuesday Weld 12-06-2005, 07:01 PM Oh, and I don't like Carole King, either. ohno:
Nighthawk76 12-06-2005, 07:05 PM Bob Dylan
Paul Stanley and Gene Simmons
Franki Valli
Tuesday Weld 12-06-2005, 07:07 PM Oh, and I hate Supertramp. Sorry to all their fans. :o :lol:
Dean Winchester 12-06-2005, 07:30 PM I think the reason I hate Styx so much is because of Dennis Deyoung's voice. "Come Sail Away" is alright but even that's mostly because it sounded like something Queen would do.
Dutabi84 12-06-2005, 07:33 PM The lead singer for Fall Out Boy - He sounds like he got kicked squarely in the nuts right before he recorded his songs.
MissZero 12-06-2005, 07:33 PM Ashlee Simpson and the guy from New Found Glory
Dean Winchester 12-06-2005, 07:36 PM the guy from New Found Glory
god yes, he sounds like his groin is being stepped on while he's singing
Steve M. 12-06-2005, 10:06 PM Her names rhymes with La Vonna! :p
Steve M. 12-06-2005, 10:08 PM Oh, and I hate Supertramp. Sorry to all their fans. :o :lol:
You mean Roger Hodgson, the group's frontman. You'll disagree with me on this, but when he left Supertramp, the group foundered. Just as Queen fnas say, "No Freddie, no Queen!" I say "No Hodgson, no Supertramp!"
'Cause I'm a purist, ya see. :D
EmoJoe 12-06-2005, 10:52 PM Britney Spears, Eminem, 50 Cent, Beyonce, any rapper basically... Mariah Carey (I dont give a crap if she has the best range, her voice sucks), Ashlee Simpson.
Umm yeah.

SBTB Geek 12-07-2005, 01:35 AM Lead singers of New Found Glory, Coheed and Cambria, and Simple Plan.
crystals 12-07-2005, 12:30 PM Lisa Kudrow on "Friends". I like the show "Friends" and I find it funny, but I just cringe every time I hear her sing "Stinky Cat" or any of the other songs she sings on the show.
TheGreatPretender 12-07-2005, 12:49 PM The lead singer for Fall Out Boy - He sounds like he got kicked squarely in the nuts right before he recorded his songs.
I still can't understand one word he is saying.
Tuesday Weld 12-07-2005, 01:22 PM You mean Roger Hodgson, the group's frontman. You'll disagree with me on this, but when he left Supertramp, the group foundered. Just as Queen fnas say, "No Freddie, no Queen!" I say "No Hodgson, no Supertramp!"
'Cause I'm a purist, ya see. :D
Was Roger Hodgson the one that sang lead on songs like "The Long Way Home", "The Logical Song", etc? If so, I couldn't stand how he sung. ohno:
Tuesday Weld 12-07-2005, 01:24 PM The lead singer for Fall Out Boy - He sounds like he got kicked squarely in the nuts right before he recorded his songs.
:lol: I just had to laugh about that.
Moonlight Lady 12-07-2005, 03:47 PM Yoko Ono -- Oh my god! :barf:
It's no where near singing.
Dr. Jazz 12-07-2005, 04:20 PM Bono and the lead singer of Rush :mumble:
Dumballa 12-07-2005, 04:23 PM Ashlee Simpson - 2005 Rose Bowl
covered up my eyes and ears i was so embarrest
Dumballa 12-07-2005, 04:24 PM Yoko Ono -- Oh my god! :barf:
It's no where near singing.
yeah i love her late husband . . . but she is atrocious as singer
Dean Winchester 12-07-2005, 04:32 PM actually, Yoko's "singing" improved a great deal around the time of Lennon's death and in the years passing. Granted, she'll never be a Streisand or Aretha, but her singing is tolerable in her latter works IMO

ok :)
HuntingtonM15 12-07-2005, 04:36 PM I cannot stand Rascal Flatts, because of the lead singer's voice. It is SO incredibly whiny and irritating. I don't understand why so many people love them. Also the lead singer of Sugarland's voice...awful. It's so unbelievably pitchy and off-key. I cringe when I hear both of those.
