What Band/singer makes you want to punch a baby in disgust?

We have had blogs about people's favourites in the guitar stakes,the music stakes and the female appreciation society.Now how about who drives you up the wall in the singing department?

For me there are three singers who when they come on,my aggression rises enormously and I want to kick their teeth in.They are not bad musicians just people who have a whining or hilariously bad voices.

1) Begins and ends with Bob Dylan.The guy should stick to songwriting because he can't sing for sh*t.One of the greatest denouments I have ever experienced in my musical listening career was hearing Dylan"s version of "All Along the Watchtower",after hearing Hendrix's masterpiece gazillion times.Harmonicas are a big no -no also.Dylan should use his as a butt-plug.There is only one harmonica worth listening to and that is in Led Zeppelin"s "When the Levee Breaks".

2) Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam.I have never warmed to this band.Vedder sh*ts me to tears with same monotonous ,whiney delivery on all his material.I get it dude,you are a super sensitive,constantly in eternal torment,but can you please shut the feck up?

3) David Byrne,Talking Heads.What can I say about this nerdy looking ,whining kent?The live version of Psycho Killer is so awful,it would get laughed off stage at the local pub's karaoke night.I like Talking Heads but Byrne makes listening to them a real trial of my eardrums.Throughout the 80s they had a radio monopoly while truly great bands like Iron Maiden,Metallica and Ozzy Osborne were ignored.

"I still think Semi is the best winger I've ever seen. He was the perfect mix of speed, power, and footy instincts, some of the stuff he pulled off was insane."

Bon Jovi.

Eddie Vedder is the real deal, and Mike Mccready deserved mention as one of the great guitarists.

I watched a documentary on Dylan a few years back and when he first began he played acoustic and everybody loved him, but when he went electric by 1968 his fans would boo him at his concerts. Dylan then decided to play the first set acoustic and the second electric.

In 1984 I wanted to punch out Boy George really bad. I despised this guy.

  oh yess!I hate this bald fekker always preaching his leftie gospel.The only Midnight Oil song that I can stand is "Wedding Cake Island" mainly because it is an instrumental and doesn't feature Mr Insulation exhorting us "to give it baaaack".

Don't be dissing on David Byne.

Only had one really passionate dislike for a singer and that was the bloke from Spandau Ballet. Worst. Band. Ever.

His political views in the 80's were nonsense. Australia should disarm. What a dope!!
