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?

Whoaaaa!!  Lord snowflake, you've been at it again getting multiple posts deleted!

And all I tried to tell you here

Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing and Communique, great albums

was that Dire Straits never put out an album titled Sultans Of Swing.  They had a song that was titled Sultans Of Swing that was on what I believe was their first album which was self titled (in other words, the title of the album was Dire Straits).

. . . I guess I am not allowed to reply to this one, lord snowflake,

You don't like Little Feat and Steely Dan. Two of the most critically acclaimed bands of all time. If you don't like rock I understand but you're a Boss fan with his gay handkerchief hanging out of his ass jeans pocket.

as evidently I hurt your dainty little feelings last time.

Sultanas of Swing, Brothers in Arms and all that…..

Is this discussion in the mixing bowl for the most posts removed award?

A song that “springs” to mind with ridiculous lines matching recent content on here is Lindisfarne’s “Fog on the Tyne”

We can swing together,

We can have a wee wee,

We can have a wet on the wall

If someone slips a whisper,

That its simple sister,

Slap em down and saliver on their smalls 


Funnily enough, Lindisfarne were called Brethren (brothers) before changing it in 1968

 

@lhasaguy “For what it’s worth, RAP is not music”

Poetry in Motion was a song written about a beautiful woman.

“Poetry in motion” describes somebody, or “something” that moves gracefully, Rap can never be described as a graceful language with its delivery, so is not “poetry in motion”

My opinion only. 

Rap by its nature is awkward and unmusical. Talked not sung it is poetry, but the exaggerated antics of the performers do nothing that appears in anyway to look like “poetry in motion”

l agree with you. I find it’s rat a tat tat delivery form is so much like a repugnant pneumatic drill by the side of the road.

l don’t like listening to it either….the lyrics just rattled off so quickly are sometimes just too hard to follow.
RAP is perfect for recording artists who can’t sing, like wearing caps and grabbing their groin. I can never work out why they do that either.
