Who would kill me if I said Joey Ramone and Joe Strummer can't sing?

Can't sing: Fat Mike(NoFX) Tom DeLonge(blink-182/Angels & Airwaves)
both have distinctive voices for the bands they're in..so I don't know if that makes em good or not.

Dude Fa‎gen has a great voice. In my mind it's one of the more under-appreciated voices in music, because while he doesn't use it in a show-offy way he actually is a pretty decent singer.

Whaaaaaat, I love his voice. It fits the music perfectly. And even if you're looking for "traditional singing" there are much worse than him.

Joe Strummer can`t sing, but the Clash sound was far more about their eclectic musical ideas, message and lyrics than his voice.

Seriously who gives a **** whether a musician "can sing". If we really cared we'd all be listening to Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey.

Håkan Hellström (one of Swedens biggest artists). He ain't good, but he is still a loved singer.

Erm, nah, I think it's kind of important. We want our singers to sing well, and our guitarists to guitar well, and our drummers to drum well, etc

Imagine how boring a football game would be if nobody were any good at it
