did you ever like a song but dont like who sang it?

yess.. it's really hard to admit it. especially when i say that "i don't like them. they make me puke", i don't want to eat my words. hahaha PRIDE.

That is why video killed the radio star :) I think if you look back at old fashioned songs, often the singers are not very stylish but their singing is good. I would rather hear a good song by an ordinary person than a terrible song by a good looking person. We have a singer in the UK who has a lovely voice (Susan Boyle) if you look for her on youtube you will see that she is not an enormously beautiful lady,quite mumsy and dowdy looking really but her voice is beautiful. She was on a television competition and everyone laughed at her before she started to sing but was shocked into awed silence when she performed.

There are many remakes or should I say revivals that I really didn't like the singer, because of the way he or she or they made it sound. Our country is known for many gifted singers, but sometimes it's really annoying to hear some of them remake a beautiful classic. there are also song lyrics I like but hate the way it was sang. I usually stick to the genre I like or just hate another genre regardless of their music. It's more of the style they try to introduce, outfits and everything.

OMG I was thinking of the same example too, The Climb by Miley Cyrus! I don't NOT like her, but I wasn't a fan of her songs either. But when I heard The Climb, I totally loved it!

Hi 7th, Yes i do. this usually happens with revival songs. i feel bad listening to my favorite song but was not given justice by the one who revived it. althhough there are also some that i appreciate but most of the times i still go for the original ones.

Yap! sometimes when i like to listen some song but after knowing the singer beyond the song give unpleasing feeling. Then the song doesn't like good as previously...

Sorry for all the Sasha Fierce fans, but Beyonce ruined Etta James's song "At last" I have never liked Beyonce, but it was because of her self-centered attitude and superiority complex she seems to have; I never questioned her singing talent. But when she sang this song, she was very lazy about it. She didn't put any of her life into it, almost like she was forced to do it. Even Etta James was angry at the way she presented her song. So this is a song that was ruined for me.

I think that usually the songs I don't like who sung it is usually the remade songs. I might like the original better, or I might like the remake better, but usually it's songs that have been remade that I don't like the artist. Other times it's the music in the backdrop that I am not a fan of, and not so much the lyrics or the singer!

So far i haven't come across this, most of the song with lyrics that i like are sing by man or woman with great vocal chord and voice with great background support band. I am talking about the singer voice alone here but not individual life style or personality, i just don't pay much attention to the personal details of some of these singers whether they have any rotten life style or silly personal history or not.

Oh yes...those are a few of mine too. There are a lot of singers that I am not crazy about personally but like a few of their songs. Lady GaGa is one that I think of as being very odd but I really do enjoy her songs..lol

Yes I think i remember some of that incident. My partner and I also discuss such things because he said that some songs are nice but it seems worst because of the singer. I also heard some songs from the artist but I didnt like the person who sings it.

yes, happened all the time, lol! for expample, when i was driving the car and i was listening the radio, i listened a song who i really liked it, and in this moment, i dint know who sang it, and then when i arrived at home, and found a little phrase i listened, i discovered who was by jonas brothers, (sorry jonas brothers fans) and i cant believe it they were sang this song! other experience i have had, was with evanescence, when i was more younger, like 15, a friend listened everyday evanescense, and i didnt like at this moment because i didnt like the style of her, and then, with the pass of the time, i listened on the radio a song in english who i really like the letter and6 the style, and when i searched on internet who sing it, i discovered that the singer is evanescence, and then i started to listened all her songs and i really like nowdays.. i wrote 2 experiences that showing that perhaps at this moment, u dont like it, and then, like me, listened a song and u "fall" in love with this, and when u discovered who sang it, u started to like the songs of the singer or the songs by a band... i wish u have a wonderful day and happy mylotting!

O yes.There were many songs which I liked but didn't like the singer's voice much.It was when other singers sing this that I understand the beauty of those songs.I guess it's because I like certain people to sing only certain kinds of songs.

I hate the Jonas brothers and Miley Cyrus. Purity rings ?0_o Really? I think all of their songs would've been better if Matthew Tuck sang them. He could add a bit of scream to "THE CLIMB". "IT'S THE CLIMB!!! RAWRRR~#~#~#"

this happens to me all the time with remakes. Faith Hill butched Janis' a Piece Of my Heart. But I never had it happen with the original. If I don't like the singer when he/she is singing a orginial song , then I won't like the song.

oh yeah, this happens to me a lot. I hear a song, like it instantly, and then when I find out I don't like the singer, I like it less. There are also a lot of songs that I like which are sung by artists I don't really care about. I just like the song itself, and not who sang it or wrote it.

When it comes to song I love music the combination of lyrics and melody. I don't care about who sung it or the artist for as long as the lyrics and the melody deliver a good though for everybody. I know that some artist knows the best music and when they sing a song mostly it came from their heart. Feel the music when they sing and trying to relay their messages through their songs. Thanks and have a nice day!

Yap for me I encounter about that situation what I'm gonna do I don't want to hear.

Hi, I am a bit fan of hindi movie songs, there is thousands of songs which I like very much, and a few of those are the songs sung by those singers whom I don't like. So it happens with that I like the song but not the singer.

Lady Gaga. I really like her voice and her songs, but I can't accept her style in dressing up. Maybe someone thinks it's cool, but it's too fashionable for me.
