    As much as I love Bob Dylan's lyrics and music, his voice has always repulsed me.
    Live in concert I would say yes, but on the albums it is really pretty good. I know it is production work in the studio that makes it sound decent though, but live it's terrible.

    Most on my list have already been mentioned. I have to add Corin Tucker to the list- really bad. I do think she is hot though and Carrie is hot too.

    I love Mick Jagger, but I honestly could see how he isn't for everyone.

    As for Perry Ferrell, I couldn't imagine Janes Addiction with another singer.



    My votes....

    Blly Corgan
    Alanis Morissette
    Geddy Lee
    and whichever Gallagher sings for Oasis

    Geddy Lee and anything by either AC/DC singer.

    The AC/DC singer's (Bon Scott?) voice is awesome, shame on you for saying otherwise. :)

    i'd like to think they are referring to brian johnson, the 'new' singer. :D

    Billy Corgan. A great songwriter and he's obviously got plenty of fans so it must be a 'love it/hate it' thing but it's just annoying. That stuff in Zwan was horrible.

    billy has a beautiful voice ...
    zwan was good ...

    Forgot about Billy Corgan. Written some good songs but dont like his voice all that much, Bullet With Butterfly wings was on television last night and my dad, who has very good taste in music, was laughing at his voice saying how terrible it sounded, i had to agree.

    The Bravery is actually pretty decent. Some of their stuff is crap, but some of it's really good. I'm not a fan of "emo," and I don't know if I'd classify them as emo. The man has a good voice when he actually sings, and isn't whiny and nasal like many emo singers.

    It doesnt mean i have to like them because they won awards. Im putting my opinion about what rock voices i think are the worst in history in order to comply with the point of the thread.

    Not trying to be rude but point out the bit where i said Billy Corgan has never won awards for his songs, or BWBW is not one of the anthems of gen, or indeed where i said it wasnt one of the biggest selling singles of all time.

    Both my father and myself were dead centre, right bang on the mark when we expressed our opinions.

    Once again the communication process has broken down...

    It is MY PERSONAL OPINION that I DONT LIKE Billy Corgan's voice. Im not saying i could scream like him, but i wouldnt want to because i dont the sound of it.

    There is no right and wrong way to answer what singer you personally dont like.
