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?

@mylogic Thank you.   I did not know the Strawbs backstory in the ‘70s.  I researched the backstory about two years ago after the Strawbs popped up in the  “similar artists” column on Qubuz when playing Journey.  The notes told the back story and an internet search filled in more detail.  Thanks for the tip on Oliver.  I am playing Anam Cara now to get a flavor of the younger Wakeman.  His composition and keyboard work appears to have dad’s grandeur.

Do more people hate certain recording artists than fans who actually love them 

You cannot know that. I don't care too much  as I know that many things that I like most of the other people do not like, and not only issues related to the music

@niodari And so good, you said it twice.

l have done that by accident too.

I totally agree with you, and it is good to hear your feedback and what others may think.👍

For me personally, l like some of the weirder avant-garde psychedelic samples of Ennio Morricone’s soundtracks. For most people that proves to be too hard a listen and they say that the music is impenetrable, irritating, or just plain unlistenable.

 

Dave Matthews Band, I heard him once on stage and I think he started to yodel! I could not stand his music!
