Best and worst singers in your opinion
 

Just state who you think is one of the best singers ever to sing on a record and post a piece of evidence.

Then state who you think is one of the worst singers ever to sing on a record and post a piece of evidence.

Doesn't have to be in any way objective. Just pick whatever rocks your boat and whatever grates on your ears.

Posting counter-evidence to to previous posters' suggestions is encouraged.

Kyo, the singer of Japanese sort-of-metal-but-not-really band Dir En Grey, is amazing. Range, expression, tone of voice, variety and creativity. He's got all bases covered.



Claudio Sanchez. That dude with the ridiculous hair and the pop-punk-chipmunk voice who sings in Coheed and Cambria. The music is allright, but damn... That dude is oversinging everything to the limit and beyond. It's even worse when he tries to do a ballad; which always results in some of the most saccharine vocals I've ever heard.

Best - Robert Plant. Worst - Anybody from Brokencyde.

Robert Plant is in Brokencyde.

This thread is off to a running start.

Well I can't decide who is the best, but worst here it is. Unforgettable trash.

Agh kill me now! That is legitimately awful!
Where do you find that crap?!

I think it's hilarious that they disabled the comments.

Yes, I posted the videos twice.

I doubt they count as recording artists, but that was pretty terrible. Why would anyone upload that?

That's extremely disrespectful to music itself and you must pay by having yer nuts cut off.

Beefheart is the greatest, duh. I especially love how blown out his voice was in the later years.


Worst? I'm not sure who's the absolute worst, but Yoko Ono is an embarrassment to the world of extended vocal techniques. Her more conventional songs sound like drunk karaoke.

I'm learning new things today. I didn't know I liked Captain Beefheart and I didn't know how much I hated Yoko Ono.

I didn't realize how much I liked Beefheart until I listened to Safe as Milk for the second time.

Oh! I had forgotten about her. She just sucks!

No better time to issue a ban.

Not on JTF! JTF is cool. Plus the the feud with yorkedaddy is entertaining.

That second vid in the op... I.. eeh.. what!?...

Elaborate please? Coheed and Cambria fan?!

Yeah but...I made it funny.

It's called, "Eep Op Ork Ah Ah."

Yes. Wtf was that even supposed to be?

I actually kinda like that song :/

I'd rather listen to your crappy garage band.

Thanks. I would too.

And hey, our second demo is fantastic mind you.

Wait wait wait. I'm confused. You like C&C, but get horrified and confused by a song that as far as I can tell sounds exactly like all other songs they've ever recorded???
