Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?


For me there is one that has always been top of the list.

Edith Piaf…..l just can’t think of anything worse.

Do not get me wrong and consider my choice is in any way racist….l love to listen to music with songs in any language… Italian, French, Spanish…..

Russian and German can however be extremely demanding, but Edith Piaf (if possible in any language) is a potential harrowing experience.

 

Do any others on here have a similar artist, or artists that can trigger the same physical reaction?

it also freaks me out when people talk about God and Jesus so out of context. After all He gave us trump, inadvertently, like Tesla owners did.

Thank you for your detailed reply regarding your list of artists.
So many replies are one liners. It is interesting your comments on experimentation and widening of some singers range and reinventing themselves. David Bowie springs to mind.

As regards Elvis, l single out ‘Any Day Now’ as a very short effective track that l believe was the B side to ‘In the Ghetto’  It’s amazing how many Elvis ‘fans’ don’t even know it.

Somebody mentions XTC in a positive sense. Thanks.

Not a Queen fan, and perhaps a bit of a hater.

 

In 10 years, nobody will listen to Bruce. In a 100 years, Queen will be bigger than today.

I had a Basset Hound that would quietly get up and leave the room if I played any acoustic guitar...insulting, as I'm a damn good guitar player...he's gone but I'm still upset about it.
