Musicians That Make Your Teeth Itch

[bad company]

Whenever the Bee Gees come on the radio I change station. Similar when I hear Whitney Houston, Bruce Springfield or Michael Jackson.

Anyone else?

[Ronstein]

Coldplay!

Anything with Autotune (especially when turned up to 11)

[rjfp1962]

Adele, Michael Bolton, Meatloaf and Simply Red.!

[MitchT]

Carrie Underwood and Emeli Sandé both have voices that reside at a precise location in the frequency spectrum that make me feel like someone's trying to split my skull with a chisel! Have to take my headphones off usually if either of them come on the radio, though I'll concede that Emeli's recent "There Isn't Much" was a fantastic record.

I like some of Adele and Simply Red’s music. Not all of it tho.

[12TS]

Eurythmics, Jackson (music + past life) and controversially maybe Bowie and Kate Bush.

[Nexus Icon]

Anything by R.E.M. and any Ozzy-era Sabbath. I think it's the nasally whine.

[K50 DEL]

Bjork is the first one that comes to mind

Otherwise, any "musician" who needs to scream lyrics into a mic rather than actually sing them.

Not sure how the Bee Gees can make someone's teeth itch though, timeless music that's still as enjoyable today as it was 30 years ago (with the exception of Stayin Alive anyway lol) But then I also like Carrie, Adele, Bolton and the Loaf and I'm a huge Coldplay fan too so what do I know lol

[thebraketester]

Rod Stewart.

[Andy 308GTB]

Paul McCartney

[Fusss]

Guns n Roses

[Gary29]

Elton John

Adele. Cheer the fk up you miserable, but hugely wealthy and successful, bh

[Pieman68]

Despise Coldplay, U2 and Oasis

Solo artists - Sheeran, Capaldi, Goulding and anybody else with that horrible breathy voice that appears to be all the rage

[vixen1700]

Certain kinds of inane modern pop music, the sort of stuff you might hear on Heart FM or such like.

Used to do a (short-lived) car-share years ago for work and the bloke who lived near me used to play that st every morning. Hateful music.

^ this

A few month back when her new single as on every station on none stop repeat, radio 1 were doing an interview with her so i turned over to radio 2... who were doing an interview with her. Arghhh

I've what is probably an irrational hatred of Jools Holland. He winds me up no end.

Agree with others Coldplay, U2, Adele etc but I've always been a big rock fan so that kind of stuff isn't on my radar, probably only because I hear it a lot on the radio and out and about etc that it irritates.
One of my biggest bugbears at the moment is a group of teenagers that keep popping up on MTV when I'm flicking through the music channels. They are either riding round on bikes outside Anfield with their faces covered or getting excited in some trainer store in London. It baffles me completely. I don't understand a word they are on about nor why riding round Anfield shaking your hands about is cool, but I don't think I'm their target audience

George Ezra - his singing voice is painful to listen to, and his songwriting is like a child's 'lets find words that rhyme' exercise.

[Whats on Second]

seaside rodney [ dave ? ] or whatever his name is, so crap, he can't even play a six string guitar

all rappers, but they aren't really musicians anyway.

[Super Sonic]

Heather Small. Real fingernails - on - blackboard my ears are bleeding shudder painful voice.
