Not sure there's been a thread similar , but today I was very unfortunate to hear two songs I cannot bloody stand. I physically have to turn off the radio/TV if I hear them.
Spice Girls - Wannabe
Neil Diamond- Sweet Caroline
(Tbh I absolutely can't stand Neil Diamond's voice at all. Christ but it's annoying)
Anyway, thought I'd start a thread.
Let's have it...........
Bono.

I'd like to hear who you like if you can't bear a good singer like Neil Diamond.
Was looking for a thread to talk about music.. Amazon acting the bollix with their new music app. Limited "skip" for Prime members the bastards!!
£9 extra for Prime members per month!
George W Bush, especially when he says "nucular."
Donald Trump, especially when he pronounces China as "dyina."
Women who speak with vocal fry (a bit like Neil Diamond). Or vocal fry combined with uptalk. The trifecta is vocal fry, uptalk, and a load of filler words like "um," "sort of," and "you know" that just pad it out. Then there's the ones who say "right?" at the end of every sentence. Recently took some classes where the lecturers did that. They'd say "right" about 1000 times every night. I had to give them feedback so they could knock it off.
When I was younger I hated the Corrs.
Now in the car our daughter insists on playing her music all the time. I am sick of Adele and Sia. Chandelier has a big beat but it's really despairing.
I really don't like Uptown Funk, animals by Maroon 5 and Treat you better.
Alan Carr and Chris Evans. Evans just shouts. People who shout on tv. Or maybe it's just the shouting and not the people. Shouters then. That Rylan fella. The more you shout the more you're on the TV. That Micah Richards boy is a shouter. Graham Norton doesn't shout as much as he used to. So the answer is Chris Evans.
Galway girl (any version)

Awful voice he has. Can't listen to him at all.
Btw, I was thinking more of singing voices you can't bear rather than speaking voices
Can't listen to Ellie Goulding . Awful piercing voice
Adele as well . I really can't understand her popularity . Very sore on the ears, that one
Can't bear Lulu - especially that song Shout. Oh Christ
That fella from the stereophonics. Most of their songs I can't hack
Not songs, but voices that really annoy me:
Jeffery Donaldson
Arlene Foster
Jim Allister
Stephen Nolan
Jaimie Bwyson
Anyone with a Belfast accent who thinks they are posh.
Anyone with a Bangor accent who thinks they are posh.
Ryan Tubridy
Adrian Logan
I happened to switch on a show last night on BBC1 about some tyrone country singer girl getting married to a drummer from westmeath (I think). Sweet jaysus her accent would make you want to stick pencils in your ears. In fact, any of those tyrone bbc fly on the wall things....no idea who thought they were a good idea. No place like Tyrone? Seriously WTF.
Jacob Reece Mog
Rylan Clarke
Alan Carr
Des Bishop
Mark Sidebottom - I feel bad about this one as he seems a dead on sort of boy, but I can't listen to him.
Joanne Cantwell - nails on a blackboard
Snowpatrol...borefest
Any of this modern rap rubbish
Any of those processed boy singer voices all singing what sounds like same whiney song, or squeaky Ed Sheerin murdering an Irish ballad.

I like him in it and never really paid much heed to him at anything else but does seem like a clown.

David Feherty has to be up there
Not many will agree but Van Morrisson. His normal singing voice is fine but when he goes over the top it's terrible (e.g. Moondance verse vs chorus).
Florence and the machine type modern pop vocals. More the bland accent-less under pronounced words than the singing.
Leona Lewis type warbly vocals (Whitney Houston as an older example). Yes they can sing but it's showboating and detracts from the song overall.
Mary Lou McDonald
Brick we should asked who you do like!
Ursula jacobs voice would go through you have to mute tv
Pete Snodden
Agree with McDonald and Pete snodden. Snodden also a tool.
Thon James Arthur hoor he;d put eels from under a bridge
Autotune has made a lot of female singers all sound the same, with that unlistenable straining voice like they're rehearsing on Pop Idol with no microphone.
Singers of the Star Spangled Banner at sporting events that turn it into a completely different tune with six times as many notes as the actual tune.

Piers Morgan. Hard to listen to wven if he does speak sense at times.
I can't stand Zombie by the Cranberries.
The worst accent ever is the posh Scottish accent of Fraser Nelson.
Des Cahill
Pat Spillane
Colm O'Rourke
Joe Duffy (Really hard to listen to as he lets no one speak that he disagrees with)
Luke O'Neill (You See)
Paul Murphy (Student Union Politics)
Pascal o'Donohue (has a condescending voice and tone)
Geldof and Bono (they've got lost along the way as to what they stand for)
The Rewdwotch accent
Glasgow
Stoke

To be honest I could keep going, but I think I'm starting to sound like a crabbit auld man.

Can't listen to Ellie Goulding . Awful piercing voice
Adele as well . I really can't understand her popularity . Very sore on the ears, that one

Too many to name . A lot of songs come on the radio/tv I like/can listen to/appreciate/tolerate etc . But it's just the really Annoying ones (like Neil Diamond, Goulding, Adele, Mary Lou,joe Duffy etc ) that you just have to switch off straight away
