Really surprised that no one’s mentioned Yoko Ono.
She’s really not that bad if you’ve ever heard Linkin park.
Is there a band called Yoko Ono? I ask, because I’m fairly sure there isn’t a singer.
The Plastic Ono Band… It is not good.
Not a good singer, for sure. Here’s her wikipedia page, and if you want to hear her “singing”, check out the Beatles documentary “Get Back”.
Did you honestly think from my comment that I didn’t know who Yoko Ono was?
I was saying that whatever noises she makes, she isn’t a singer. Therefore she doesn’t qualify for a mention in the “worst band or singer” category.
I couldn’t tell, so the gamble was either I get whooshed, or I help someone become one of today’s lucky 10,000. I guess I got the former, lol.
Pink Floyd is underwhelming for a band commonly labelled as “prog rock”. Most of their stuff is forgettable, albeit Alan Parsons Project came off it, so I guess it’s not irredeemable if it inspired something genuinely good.
Trickhay on YouTube… Learned about him when he posted an ad on Craigslist looking for a singer for his music. He’s become an inside joke for my SO and I. I think my favorite is “hoop dance”.
Apparently no one remembers Biz Markie.
Either Tom Petty or Geddy Lee. Both of their bands would be greatly improved if they didn’t sing.
Not quite the answer to your question, but Cafe Tacvba. Great music, lousy singer, like that guy says about Red Hot Chili Peppers. Jesus Christ.
I have a perhaps unreasonable dislike of The Best Day by Atmosphere.
I’ve watches so much german trash tv where people sing that nothing on this planet can shock me
David Lee Roth’s solo work… makes my ears bleed
You guys ever listened to Corey Feldman?
Easily the lead singer of Kings of Leon. That whine in his voice makes me want to chug bleach.
Hi there.
Someone I know listens exclusively to the Beatles on the car radio. From all the Beatles hype, it should feel like a party, but instead it feels like you’re listening to jingle commercials during the whole ride.
Oh my God THANK YOU! You just described exactly how I feel about them and I’ve never been able to really figure out why they bothered me.
Probably doesn’t help that they’re so popular that their music was licensed and became synonymous with commercials.
Same thing with the doors and all things Vietnam.
Scruffy the cat.
Just the shittiest music. They were bad enough that despite it being over thirty years since the single listen I had of the one album I had, they still stand out for being bad.
Definitely Steven Seagal in that reggae song he did. This one.
I will upvote but I do not dare press the link. Yikes.
Freespirit Graham.
My father used to book acts for a local club, and this guy played there once. He was awful. There’s no nice way to say it, he just really wasn’t very good. He played and sang songs that nobody recognised, and did it badly. To make things worse, he was paid, but went around with his hat at the end of the set asking people for money. Needless to say, he didn’t get a good reception.
About a year or so later, my father booked another singer, and it was the same guy going under a different name. The music night was popular, so there was a decent sized crowd already there when he walked in, and quite a few of them remembered him. My father asked him what he was doing there, and he said that he thought it was worth a try.
He was told to leave without playing, as the people who remembered him were already annoyed, and weren’t the type of people to suffer a fool kindly.
