Interestingly, I saw an interview with George Martin once where Martin said that Lennon told him he did not like the sound of his own voice and was always wanting to double-track it and do other stuff to make it sound better. To some extent it's a bit of a nasal and maybe whiny-sounding voice, although to me not annoyingly so. Still, I can see why some people, perhaps including Lennon himself, did not like it.
