Like someone else said earlier. I can't stand all those husky gravelly singers like Rod Stewart etc.

sorry gotta stick up for brian johnson - top bloke and perfect fit for ACDC- as for Bruce he is quality - agree about shane (especially after seeing him in holland with the MIB-utter shite) and mariah totally agree

I just don't like the way she does that annoying thing with long notes, instead of holding the note she warbles up and down the scale, I'm sure there's a technical term for it, "doing a Mariah" probably isn't it. Maybe she can hold the note, maybe she can't, I just wish she would.

Most of my ire is reserved for whoever does those slowed-down breathless versions of normal songs that you hear on self-indulgent ads these days, the most recent being a very slow version of "You're the one that I want" on some perfume ad. And while I don't really like a lot of modern stuff, many of these singers (Sheeran, Murs etc.) come across as quite good at singing if we assume they're not all auto-tuned to within an inch of their lives. And a lot of them won't be anywhere in five years time, of course, but they've dragged in so much cash in the couple of years they are famous that it doesn't matter.
