Doesn't surprise me, but it seems people are posting voices that are cool, distinct, interesting, voices with character, voices with a soul, as opposed to pretty, boring, pop voices.

So I'll play along. (but I consider these voices good/great, not lousy)

A great voice. Sad song.

Ok, Bon Scott's voice wasn't great, but it was distinct and fit the band. (and better than Brian Johnson's :eek:)

It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Wanna Rock-n-Roll) - AC/DC

Another "lousy" voice. Ok, a bit nasally. Chris Robinson from The Black Crowes.

John Lombardo of 10,000 Maniacs and John and Mary. Good lyricist and song writer. Not a singer but it works with this song..

Eno is another who's voice you either love or hate. Plus he did a lot of stuff like this. Does anyone recognize the anagram in the title?

Hate this song. In my top 10 all-time worst songs ever recorded. I mean it's not My Friend Stinkfoot, but it's an automatic turn the channel if it ever comes on. But I digress.

Pentatonix?????? In this thread?????? Now I've seen it all.

If you think raspy voices is a determination of a lousy voice, I give to you Wanda Jackson.
The Queen of Rockabilly. And the Party Ain't Over.

With Jack White. Doing Bob Dylan's "Thunder On The Mountain"

Speaking of mountains. Another "lousy" (unique) voice.

I was replying to an earlier version of the song. You’re hilarious!

This post is why I create threads like this. :D

I've certainly listened to My Pal Foot Foot more times than I've listened to Halleluja in the last several years. And I've listened to Stinkfoot WAAAAY more.
