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

Michael Franks…I feel creepy just typing it.

….this gem of an LP

l have learnt something tonight. Did not realise she vocalised in English. Apparently it was a peculiarity that Edith dropped a lot of the tongue warbling rrrrr’s in English. Plus the songs were a little less furiously rattled off.

Maybe l will have no regrets if trying to listen in English?

Didn’t Neil Diamond also sing a song with “no regrets” in the lyrics?

NOOO, it was Waylon Jennings …….and a few others.

Just went to YouTube to hear Edith Piaf.

She sounds not unlike an operatic munchkin.

“She sounds like an operatic munchkin”

Yes she had a quite small frame but a large voice. Good pair of lungs and arguably did resembled a munchkin.

After some advice from @chrisochea (thank you) l was enticed to listen to her English songs last night and heard positive results….l suddenly found her to be less annoying. Singing in French l always considered her diction to be rasping and excruciating, but in English her voice is a little more mellow and rolled off. 
I must confess her English adaptations only caused a slight irritation, but while listening l still felt l was running into the yellow brick wall.

Ultimately I’ve now decided l will not be revisiting this artist again……well l’m off to have a wiz. Nature is unexpectedly making that call for some reason after reliving all this.

The recording artist is for me someone l just can’t listen to.
