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

. . . if the meter would have worked out better, The Boss could have titled his best selling album Triggering Snowflakes In The USA.  As it was, it only sold over 30 million. . . .

I wonder how Born To Trigger would have gone over back in ’75?

WAY too many to list...

My tastes in music tend toward to the progressive and avant-garde.

I am not at all interested in music that does not meet the criteria I love in music.

Those criteria are, in no particular order: very high levels of musicianship, deep and broad ranges of emotional and/or intellectual content conveyed, moderate to high levels of complexity, (usually) long form songs. I am not usually interested in: hooks, verse>chorus>bridge>repeat song structure.

So, almost all of mainstream music bores me at the very least, or annoys me. Even stuff I used to listen to and love, is not very tolerable for me.
