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?

Small frame BIG sound.
 

Mireille Mathieu springs to mind…..The late 1960s rebirth version of the modern Edith Piaf sound. Often a quest on TV variety shows (with Topo Gigio) on Saturday and Sunday nights in the UK, even though not many viewers actually knew what she was singing about.

 

After thought with me thinking back….. Edith, Mireille and Topo do all kinda look alike

Bruce Springsteen makes my skin crawl. My kid loves him, but I've always hated his voice, and I'm old. I'm also no fan of the xylophone (in rock - it's ok when it belongs), but Bruce seemed to use it allot (in rock).

John Denver!! I have never heard a recording I could listen to. Very awful recordings everyone I have heard is very bright and very thin. It not the music it is the recordings.

I cannot listen to springsteen or bono. I recognize they have talent but for many insulting reasons just not my cup of tea.
