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?

The video l still have in my collection l believe. Your evidence is probably correct also…..two separate incidents.

l will be home tomorrow so l will look out the old tape and see if it will still run and report back.

The quote you last posted is far, far longer than the video clip l remember. As it was a Beatles abridged history l expect my version is from another interview. We will see if l can rerun the tape. It’s at least 40 years old now

John was being ironic with the statement,  in any case he didn't  say greater, just more popular.

Unless I am missing something, @sns , I don’t think anyone has said that the quote in question was that The Beatles were ’greater’ than Jesus . . . hasn’t every quote (or possible misquote) so far pertained to popularity?

Jesus should never be popular. He should cause a whole bunch of soul searching and dismay.  He says it's not the room nor the tubes nor the transistors.  It's faith and fruit and giving all your money to the poor. And believing your speakers are going to blow any moment.
