Her voice had no control whatsoever. As one who is a novice singer, I got more akalades than Yoko. But if you're married to John Lennon, you're entitled to sing regardless of talent.
An old Saturday Night Live show did a parody of Jimmy Carter bringing the leaders of Egypt and Israel together. the parody was getting the Beatles back together with Carter helping negotiate. The demands were that Yoko not sing, hum, whisper, talk... a long list op possible noises she made.
Geddy isn't a great singer, but his uniqueness is what makes him great. He's playing insane bass lines and singing the melody, that's talent. You missed Linda McCartney. She couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Half of the "vocalists" today can't sing without auto tune.
I whole heartedly agree yoko ono is the worst singer EVER! However, I am sure a lot of people would disagree with me on this. If Steven Tyler or Mick Jagger would try out for “……….’s got talent”, neither would win.
I'm ashamed to say I laughed hysterically when someone posted online that if he wasn't Brian Wilson's cousin Mike Love would have been a high school janitor.
I love Bruce Springsteen- the emotion in his voice is astounding. But…he sometimes sounds like he’s on the toilet with bad constipation… bellowing for relief.
At least they sound very unique which is important too (of course you have to be able to sing in key or at least back then you had to, I would recognize their voice anywhere, not sure I would recognize Nat King Coles even if he had a prettier voice.
When Elton John was beginning his career, he asked Brian Wilson whether he should sing his own songs. He wasn't sure his voice was good enough. Brian told him, "You don't have to have a great voice. You just have to be sincere."
Elton is a very good singer who happens to have a distinct voice. Anyone who thinks he can't sing is not musically inclined and probably have a so called'tin ear'. No offense. People have too many opinions about things they know nothing about. You don't have to like the way he sings, but don't put it down for no reason.
Brian is a musical genius. His schizophrenia and crippling stage fright kept him from showcasing his voice. Oh, and he suffered horrific child abuse from the dad.
Yoko Oho thought she could sing- you have to be kidding me she was terrible. John must have had hearing problems to think she could sing. But remember the saying -Happy wife happy life. John was really good. RIP JOHN - gone but never forgotten.
Mick Jagger has more a unique voice, though never having the greatest or prettiest voice he has kept his voice really well trough the years, that at least takes some work even if he's not the best voice out there.
So true about Motley Crue nowadays... I joke with friends that a Crue concert is basically a game show... sometimes it is "Sing along for Vince", other times it is "Guess What Song I'm Mumbling", and usually you'll get a combo of the two in the same song.
The comments from some of their live performances are great. My personal favorite was some guy who congratulated Vince on preforming through a stroke on a live performance of kick start my heart. Some of the funniest shit I’ve seen on the internet
I love Dave Mustaines singing style, it’s so unusual. He sings with his jaw clenched almost. It’s so odd it works. My favorite singers, Till Lindemann and Ronnie James Dio couldn’t be more different from each other. You don’t need to sing perfectly if you have emotion, presence and a big personality. Sometimes all that matters is that you believe you are going to sing fine, people will like it, and it becomes true. Sometimes all you need is raw emotion and an interesting voice like Janis Joplin had or Tom Waits has.
Yoko Ono is a seriously effed up woman. I am no fan. She can't sing well. She rolled from the bottom of the rock and somehow changed, 1 man's trajectory. Mix in political riff raff and ...BANG! Over in seconds. It amazes me what people's are capable of. 😮😊
IMO, Geddy Lee is a great singer. Unique voice and lots of range. When you hear a Rush song, you know it's a Rush song. ❤ Perfectly complements the band's music.
I was in a band like that. The self proclaimed front man was not sexy, couldn’t sing or write songs, was a mediocre at best guitarist… We were too young to recognise. I only later learned he was a succubus as well. Wanted to be seen as a Hendrix/Lennon type resurrection while leaning on others for the heavy lifting. I quit in the end. Tough lesson. The songs we had were good though. That’s what kept me in while it lasted. I started a duo with the bass player, who actually wrote them, it went well enough. He came to me with his demos, let’s be honest here. We’re both civil servants with dayjobs, not entrepeneureal in any way. But I got to make the album I wanted to do all my life, thanks to him. Life is funny like that
When I think of Bob Dylan I also think of Tom Petty because when they talk they sound similar. An episode of Family Guy had Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Boomhauer at some function where they're talking to each other and laughing over something but you can't understand a word they're saying.
Boomhauer could have been in the Traveling Dingleberries and they would not have been any worse! And Petty and I were delivered by the same OB in Gainesville and I love his music and miss the crap out of him.
Nick, I think you were spot on with all of this list. There are a few on this list that I could actually say I enjoy despite the fact that they really don’t sing well. I give them homage because I am a singer myself. 0:430:56
Well, Yoko… I can’t. I can’t abide listening to Roger Waters now. But he got one thing right. ‘Jump!’ said Yoko, ‘Oh no! I’m too scared and too good looking’ I cried. Anyone is too good looking for Yoko, even the monster of Frankenstein
#doyouremember.. Let me ask you something: how many current day, I don’t even know what to call them… “Bands“?… “Artists“?… “Singers”?? .. How many of these people have real authentic voices who don’t depend on software enhancements?? Ask that question to yourself… And then get back to me, and be truthful and factual. I’m only @9:53... but you have so far, diminished any of these artists as actually having singing voices. There’s obviously something that the rest of the world is liking, because that is what has made them popular.. and loved. So please get back to me… Perhaps do a segment on current day artists that don’t actually use their own voices.
Well… As to the Floyd, I always admired how I could do anything they did, given the equipment, but could never have written it. I was never in that creative league. As to Nico: ‘you should try it one time. Put your head in a bucket and shout’. -Kevin Ayers. But she did do The End on a harmonium and it’s my favourite version of the song. There you go :)
Mike Love is not the best singer. But it worked because of Brian Wilson. Mike is too diva. But I really think Dylan, even before he got old really never sang a song maybe just did some weird twang on certain words. Oh please Yoko Ono is clearly this is your brain on anything and everything detrimental in addition to having to listen to it. Something wild escaped and no posse is looking for it. As you got higher I thought you got picky. I mean Neil Young doesn't have to try to sing songs that aren't his style but I think when the first Chicago album came out without Peter Cetera they tried to plug the new guy in singing his style and it didn't work. I think if you were going to say some songs wouldn't work with other singers I wouldn't have picked Freddie Mercury. Too versatile. Now Motley Crue and you saying he can't sing anymore well sometimes it's just getting old but not necessarily here. Jim Morrison sure the drugs knocked him down. He wasn't bad before that but there was another that sounded good with songs he wrote but maybe only used three or four notes in each song. Remember too this is rock not Enrico Caruso or something.
I would easily have put Springsteen on this list. Every song in the same key and he looks like he is constipated and trying to clear a bowel obstruction whenever he tries to "sing".
What a coincidence. Just watched a video a couple days ago of a professional opera singer and singing coach giving her impressions from her first ever exposure to Neil Young. It was her watching Young's performance of "Old Man" on a British TV show. Just him and his guitar. And she thought he sang very well. Hmmm.
Some of mine: 1. Taime Downe of Faster Pussycat 2. Axl Rose of Guns N Roses 3. Sickie Wifebeater of The Mentors 4. Paul Stanley of KISS (since 2008) 5. David Coverdale of Whitesnake (since 2012) 6. Jon Bon Jovi (very recently... His cords are getting old) 7. Wes Scantlin of Puddle of Mudd
Got free tickets for Rush. We were starving. Did get to eat before we headed to the concert. There weren't any food venders there, so we left during the first song. Boring.
Jim Morrison should NOT be on this list!! He was an excellent singer who should not be judged by the end of his career. Yoko Ono is painful to listen to, so she belongs on the top of this list.
Bravo on some superbly defensible hot takes. "BEACH BOYS???... OK, good point." And totally fair descriptions of legendary but technically deficient singers like Neil Young, Bob Dyland etc.
Best vocals for Yoko is: I'm a Witch, I'm a Bitch -- that is a good song! She surprised me with that one! Dylan - I LOVE to hear him sing. That unique voice of his captured me at a young age.
I'm sorry but for me, Yoko shouldn't be singing....anywhere.....anytime. I don't remember what show it was that they turned her mic off. They should have done that more often. Maybe she would've taken a hint....but probably not. As for Mr Dylan, maybe one of the greatest songwriters of all time but a horrible vocalist. Should've turned his mic off too. Again, just my opinion. People love Bob's vocals. Not me.
I agree that Yoko OH NO is a bad singer. Her song walking On thin Ice released in 1981 ends with a sound she makes that sounds more like someone whipping a dog. But Paul McCartney's expression he made while Yoko sang was priceless, yet he didn't make any faces when Linda McCartney sang.
Out of your top 10 here I think the worst singer would have to be Mick Jagger, oh wait you didn't add him, That's a little strange Mick Jagger it's probably one of the worst singers of all time.
Don't tune into videos about greatest bands w/terrible singers if you don't want to hear their opinion. Simple. (He doesn't profess to have a voice that's better than anyone else's either...gee you must be fun at parties).🙄
... so far... no... these singers are not the best, singing wise. Many not even good singers. Funny to me because RHCP is the only one on the list I even listen to, but I agree Anthonys voice is not strong on it's own.
I actually love Neil Young's voice. I agree that he is not a good singer, but somehow he has so much raw emotion in his voice that it makes up for the lack of polish in his voice.
Hey! Leave Neil Young well alone. He was part of Crosby and the lot, that’s something. He may not have been a great anything, but he did fit in well with anything he did. He blended in like the best
Though I eventually grew to love Led Zeppelin, the biggest obstacle to do so was Robert Plant's voice. It simply grated on my nerves! I still like to describe his falsetto moaning at the end of Four Sticks like a melting Wicked Witch of the West.
David Lee Roth should be number one on this list. An incredible band with an atrocious singer. Thankfully the bassist has a great voice and hit the high notes.
I get what you’re saying with Jim and his issues concerning his addiction alcohol later in his life. But even under the influence of alcohol or narcotics Jim was still able to sing. In fact, the bands final album “LA Woman” recorded less than a year prior to his death, is one of their most iconic. Listen to Jim’s vocals on “Riders on the Storm” or “Hyacinth House” they’re still miles above many other sober singers, myself included.
I might add New Order to this list, only because Bernard Sumner reluctantly became the singer after Joy Division dissolved. That said, I love New Order, and Bernard gets the job done in his own special way.
@@reallymysterious4520 it is an opinion.. Just like the list that was made.. I believe there should be other singers on it.. If everyone agreed it would be pretty boring... If you took it personally then that's your issue... Enjoy your day 🙂
Quicksilver lost their singer and tried to replace him. Have another hit of fresh air. Might have continued their success, but no one could stand that voice!!
Stevie nicks voice is unique- and it’s polarizing. Some people appreciate it and others don’t. Her strongest talents are her songwriting and her charisma
There are 1001 versions of "Four Strong Winds" out there. Are any of the many versions by technically excellent singers (of whatever gender) more effective at conveying the emotional content of the song than Neil Young's version? I don't think so.
I especially like the recording he did with Nicolette Larson on high harmony. It's on the album 'Comes A Time'. ruclips.net/video/85haYlPbPmA/видео.html
Nico was only on the first album but having a failed relationship with Lou Reed and Lou being jealous of Nico getting a lot of attention didn't help. Lou wanted her gone. And when it comes to less than stellar singers I'd have to add Benard Sumner of New Order and Ian Brown of the Stone Roses.
That's not fair to Sumner or Brown. Sumner wasn't *supposed* to be a lead singer (RIP Ian Curtis, epileptics understand why he did what he did) and Brown did a great job on their entire debut album.
Yoko Ono could not sing... she screamed and sounded like a cat being tortured.
Her voice had no control whatsoever. As one who is a novice singer, I got more akalades than Yoko. But if you're married to John Lennon, you're entitled to sing regardless of talent.
I remember that gawd awful song, "Kiss kiss kiss, kiss me love." 😂
Yoko Ono? More like Yoko Oh no!
@@heatherduncan5101 😂😂😂
An old Saturday Night Live show did a parody of Jimmy Carter bringing the leaders of Egypt and Israel together. the parody was getting the Beatles back together with Carter helping negotiate. The demands were that Yoko not sing, hum, whisper, talk... a long list op possible noises she made.
Back in the late 70s everyone said "listen to Rush" so when l did l was like "is this guy huffing helium?"
I haven’t listen to any Rush past the point where the singing starts.
LOL! Though I've grown to love Rush, I still at times describe Geddy's voice as sounding like that of a kid - kid, in this case, meaning young goat.
Geddy isn't a great singer, but his uniqueness is what makes him great. He's playing insane bass lines and singing the melody, that's talent. You missed Linda McCartney. She couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Half of the "vocalists" today can't sing without auto tune.
Yep. He’s instantly recognizable. I’d say the same for Dave mustaine.
"Ray Manzarek's throbbing organ" may be an ill-advised choice of words.
😂😂😂
Dylan was NEVER a very good singer but he was defiantly one heck of a poet. Yoko Ono's bird like voice is like nails on a black board!
I agree about Yoko 😂 but Dylan was a great song writer!
Yoko Moano thought she was the FAB FIFTH.🧑🧑🧑🧑👩
his son is better
Dylan is more a poet who sings.
an insult to birds, nails and blackboards!
I whole heartedly agree yoko ono is the worst singer EVER! However, I am sure a lot of people would disagree with me on this. If Steven Tyler or Mick Jagger would try out for “……….’s got talent”, neither would win.
I'm ashamed to say I laughed hysterically when someone posted online that if he wasn't Brian Wilson's cousin Mike Love would have been a high school janitor.
And STILL a dick. My friend currently tours with the BBs. I cannot bear to type out the band's name, which Love stole.😢
SO TRUE!! The most arrogant, narcissistic and clueless janitor ever!!😂
I love Bruce Springsteen- the emotion in his voice is astounding. But…he sometimes sounds like he’s on the toilet with bad constipation… bellowing for relief.
Lol I just commented the same thing about the toilet
Specially in We are the World he sounds like on the toilet. I still enjoy lot of his songs
With most bands it's an acquired taste, Janis Joplin or Rod Stewart weren't exactly Nat King Cole but still enjoyable.
At least they sound very unique which is important too (of course you have to be able to sing in key or at least back then you had to, I would recognize their voice anywhere, not sure I would recognize Nat King Coles even if he had a prettier voice.
Megadeth Mustaine is about guitar riffs and speed metal, NOT vocals
You forgot Axl Rose. His singing sounds exactly like the Three Stooges. You know Larry, Curly, Moe, and Shep. Can't forget Shep. 😂😂😂😂
Stooges fan, here. It's Shemp. Cheers!
Axl may be a total dick but he had *incredible* vocal range in his youth. He speaks in baritone but nailed high notes.
When Elton John was beginning his career, he asked Brian Wilson whether he should sing his own songs. He wasn't sure his voice was good enough. Brian told him, "You don't have to have a great voice. You just have to be sincere."

@@fredrodnick2881Re-read the original comment. Then you might wish to remove yours. Go along now, actually re-read it. Don't just say you did! 😊

They say love is blind. John Lennon is proof that love is also deaf!
I will defend Geddy Lee he is not as bad as you say. Rush is very talented just listen to their instrumentals YYZ for example.
He’s a great guy and the band has multiple “classic” songs, but Mick Jagger can’t sing.
Jagger sings far better than Dylan, and when asked about it he used exquisit British irony, "Well, Dylan is not one of the greatest tenors."
You forgot Mick Jagger,Ted Nugent, Jonathan Cain, Suzy Quatro, Kid Rock, Justin Bieber. I actually love Getty Lee's voice!
Mick Jagger has more a unique voice, though never having the greatest or prettiest voice he has kept his voice really well trough the years, that at least takes some work even if he's not the best voice out there.
Getty is still out there doing it, and in the original keys, hitting the high notes!
Bieber doesn't have his own band. Lol
RHCP is about Flea's masterful bassist work

Bob dylan's voice was terrible, but his songs where GREAT....
Hello dear how are you doing today I hope you are safe😊
Am from Cleveland Ohio ❤
Really David Lee Roth doesn’t make this list? Even in his 20s he sounded like a singing grandpa. But he sure as hell nailed all those Van Halen songs.
He's a D- singer but an A+ frontman. Incredible charisma.
I love Dave Mustaines singing style, it’s so unusual. He sings with his jaw clenched almost. It’s so odd it works. My favorite singers, Till Lindemann and Ronnie James Dio couldn’t be more different from each other.

well Bob Dylan and Tom Petty sang together in the Traveling Wilburys supergroup, so I think everyone realized the similarities all along.
Boomhauer could have been in the Traveling Dingleberries and they would not have been any worse! And Petty and I were delivered by the same OB in Gainesville and I love his music and miss the crap out of him.
Mick Jagger could EASILY make the list !!
If a goat could sing, it would sound like Willie Nelson
How much weed could a woodchuck smoke if a woodchuck could smoke weed? None unless the woodchuck is hanging out with Willie Nelson.
Step back! Don't ever shade my dude Willie...he's timeless but old asf 💀
@@alexanderdantonio8999 don't get me wrong, I like him too. I also like the sounds of baby goats😁

That's hilarious!
I think drugs and alcohol weren't the only thing that ruined Vince Neil's voice he must have hit his head too many times!
I LOVE Geddy Lee's voice!
Sounds like you did a pretty good job only I think unfortunately it was just a start there's so many that could be on this list
Nick, I think you were spot on with all of this list. There are a few on this list that I could actually say I enjoy despite the fact that they really don’t sing well. I give them homage because I am a singer myself. 0:43 0:56

Anyone is too good looking for Yoko, even the monster of Frankenstein
Plus Waters is a grade A prick.
John Lydon (Rotten) as a prime example of a terrible singer with an amazing voice!
Also David Thomas of Pere Ubu
Agreed, especially about Yoko Ono
Love Nirvana! Expected to see Kurt on the list.
Most of the singers today use auto tune.....so not really singing.
Yoko should not be on the list as nobody listened to her
Axl Rose’s voice grates my nerves

Neil Young,Yoko Ono and Bob Dylan are not Bands!
Some of mine:

2. Axl Rose of Guns N Roses
3. Sickie Wifebeater of The Mentors
4. Paul Stanley of KISS (since 2008)
5. David Coverdale of Whitesnake (since 2012)
6. Jon Bon Jovi (very recently... His cords are getting old)
7. Wes Scantlin of Puddle of Mudd
Agree about Dylan. 3:20
Got free tickets for Rush. We were starving. Did get to eat before we headed to the concert. There weren't any food venders there, so we left during the first song. Boring.
Nico's vocal style was "Sprechgesang"; like, Fred Schneider (B52s)
I think they were going for Marlene Dietrich 2.0.
Jim Morrison should NOT be on this list!! He was an excellent singer who should not be judged by the end of his career. Yoko Ono is painful to listen to, so she belongs on the top of this list.
Yep there is a huge difference in screaming a song and shouting it but hey..it made them millions 😂
I would absolutely remove The Doors from this list and replace them with Dream Theater. Monumental musicians, but pitiful whiner wailing on the mic.
i didnt like love either but the rest of the singing and harmony made up for it. my favorite group.
I can't stand rush, I never have.
I agree with this list completely. The honesty regarding The Doors is rare these days.
Bravo on some superbly defensible hot takes. "BEACH BOYS???... OK, good point." And totally fair descriptions of legendary but technically deficient singers like Neil Young, Bob Dyland etc.
Steven Tyler is another one....good with his own music, but sux otherwise.
Steven Tyler sucks period.

Axel Rose, Sebastian Bach and Bret Michaels aren’t on this list and that’s a major oversight on the content creators part. These three CANNOT sing!!!
Never knew Will Ferrell was a member of the Chili Peppers.
Geddy definitely the worst. Amazing songs, incredible musicians, and a singer who makes them unlistenable. A straight-up tragedy.
60% Bad Takes.
David Lee Roth should be number one on this list. An incredible band with an atrocious singer. Thankfully the bassist has a great voice and hit the high notes.
I 100% agree. Dave's a terrible singer but A+ for energy and charisma. As a frontman he's second to only the vastly more talented Freddie Mercury.
you are wrong.
I get what you’re saying with Jim and his issues concerning his addiction alcohol later in his life. But even under the influence of alcohol or narcotics Jim was still able to sing.

Apart from the obvious ones, one or 2 of em made me react defensively at first lol, but you backed it all up and your list is fair. Good job
A methed out cat! 😂 True! Great list, but there's So many more.
So you start your video with the cover of guns and roses but Axel is not a part of your worst list?

I might add New Order to this list, only because Bernard Sumner reluctantly became the singer after Joy Division dissolved. That said, I love New Order, and Bernard gets the job done in his own special way.
I love Geddy Lee. Such an original voice
I would throw in Axel Rose, Mariah Carey, Tom Petty, Joe Cocker, Boy George, Michael Jackson, Cher, Better Middler
When Mariah hits those high notes, I have to cover my ears. Make it stop!
@@FayeKramer-rl9xz Exactly - that's no longer singing !!!
Are you kidding me or delusional....I agree there is really no need to hit that very high falsetto which pierces your skull but they can hold a note
@@irenebryan9788 So if someone doesn't agree with you they are delusional - because your opinion is so much more important than everyone else's ...
@@reallymysterious4520 it is an opinion.. Just like the list that was made.. I believe there should be other singers on it.. If everyone agreed it would be pretty boring... If you took it personally then that's your issue... Enjoy your day 🙂
Dude...have you listened to Stadium Arcadium?
Quicksilver lost their singer and tried to replace him. Have another hit of fresh air. Might have continued their success, but no one could stand that voice!!
Mustaine? You ever hear Hetfield try to sing a Blue Oyster Cult song? Oy.
Nick, thank you!! Finally someone that agrees with me that Mike Love sucks! 😂
Stevie nicks voice is unique- and it’s polarizing. Some people appreciate it and others don’t. Her strongest talents are her songwriting and her charisma
Excellent video & I agree with your analysis.🖐🏼
You forgot about Paul Stanley and Jon Bon Jovi
I totally agree with Bob Dylan, Yoko Ono, and Neil Young.
Their singing voices make me cringe.
There are 1001 versions of "Four Strong Winds" out there. Are any of the many versions by technically excellent singers (of whatever gender) more effective at conveying the emotional content of the song than Neil Young's version? I don't think so.
I especially like the recording he did with Nicolette Larson on high harmony. It's on the album 'Comes A Time'. ruclips.net/video/85haYlPbPmA/видео.html
Nico was only on the first album but having a failed relationship with Lou Reed and Lou being jealous of Nico getting a lot of attention didn't help. Lou wanted her gone. And when it comes to less than stellar singers I'd have to add Benard Sumner of New Order and Ian Brown of the Stone Roses.
That's not fair to Sumner or Brown. Sumner wasn't *supposed* to be a lead singer (RIP Ian Curtis, epileptics understand why he did what he did) and Brown did a great job on their entire debut album.
As a Primus fan,I feel insulted that you left out Les Claypool.🙃
Modern day Paul Stanley and Axl Rose
