Do you allow this singer to REALLY annoy you?


 It is literal torture for me to listen to Lewis Capaldi.

Especially this song.

(And, yes - - I get it. I am not a super famous singer, so who am I to get imitated at his voice? But -- irritated I still get, for sure. Ha. More power to him.)

    I like this. No annoyance at all!

    Oh, well.

    I'm "alone again, naturally."

    Thanks for answering!

    And I  was joking around with my reply to you - I know I'm in the minority;  this song is really a big hit. I've just never liked his voice.  :)

    I'm trying to remember where I first heard it a couple of years ago; a movie or show, I think. I immediately liked it, and that distinctive accent! :)

    I like accents of many kinds in singers but his I don't like. I simply don't like the way he sings. 
    And I listened again just now- - I find him just yelling through much of the song. A very big "Ick" for me. Ha!

    But, again -- I'm glad you came in to answer!!
    :)

    And like Thriftymaid mentioned - - isn't that piano part lovely? I love that part!

    OMG -- I give up -- I am leaving it there just to piss me off -- you would not believe how many time I looked at my question and did not see that. And STILL did not even know what you were talking when I read your answer!

    Sure - - "imitated"- - how'd that even come out of my fingers?  To quote a friend- - "Grrrr" --


    Thanks for your keen eye!

    Again, I'm leaving it as a lesson for me this evening.

    I'll probably correct it another time.

    I love the piano and don't mind the voice.  But saying buddy for body made me want to call him to discuss it.

    I like the accent too in general.  Have you watched Shetland on Netflix?  This made me think about it.  It's a good series if you like that kind of stuff, and you can get your fill of the accent.  :)

    No, never heard of it. I do like murder mysteries and accents. Maybe I'll check it out, thanks!

    You're right - - that piano part is wonderful. 
    :)

    Yeah, his accent is strong (maybe that's part of his pronunciation stuff?) - - I like various accents (like Dolores O'Riordan of The Cranberries) in many singers but not his, ha.

    Thanks for coming in and answering.  :)

    I never heard of him, so I don't listen to him. He's not rockabilly, bluegrass, Cajun, or hillbilly, so I don't listen to him.

    I never heard of him, either.  I'm open to listening to all genres of music and I only hear him by chance.  But I immediately change the station if I hear him while driving.  :)

    I'll listen to other genres of music also, except for rap and hip hop, that crap belongs in the garbage can. I did listen to a few seconds of the video you posted with your question, then I quickly turned it off.

    Ha! I don't blame you for turning it off. I like the piano part of the song, though.

    Yeah, and I sort of "took it" that the genres you listed are the ones you particularly like. And this song certainly doesn't fit into them.

    And I don't know if it fits into any of your preferences, but I really like Rednex's version "Cotton Eye Joe"   :)
