But then again, I'm sure some people hate the sound of my voice.

i'm no fan of teh woman who plays the goddess of love in Once On This Island OBC recording (Human Heart).... out of control old lady vibrato. Also, Daphne goes from cool-sounding to crappy on the RENT soundtrack.

"Grease," the fourth revival of the season, is the worst show in the history of theater and represents an unparalleled assault on Western civilization and its values. - Michael Reidel

Um... i don't want to be attacked for saying this, but some small parts of L5Y when Sherie Rene Scott sings, some of her vowels that she holds just bug the crap out of me... but otherwise i love her voice, lol.
Love,

I just cannot stand Gerard Butler. I cannot handle his voice-it drives me insane with anger. I have to leave the room.

jonartdesigns-Elaine Stritch does not have a good voice at all. She "speak-sings" her songs. What I like about the way she "sings" is that she acts the song, so it does not matter that she does not have a voice. The same goes for Carol Channing.

Love, love, love Elaine Stritch - she may not be the best singer in the world, but she's the real deal! As far as annoying voices, please put me in the camp that doesn't understand what the deal is with Linda Eder's voice - kind of like warmed-over Barbara Streisand... not my cup of tea I'm afraid!

<3 Kerry Butler. Such a flexible voice. MJW on Hairspray..on the other hand....I was...blah.

Mandy Patinkin-On and off. During "The Right Girl" on the Follies Concert he's so nasal and ugh! But he's so great in other things he sings. I'm on and off about his voice, but when I'm off about it I'm really off about it!

Kristin Chenoweth, Marissa Jeret Winokur, and Harvey Fierstein. I know, so predictable.

Kristin Chenoweth if I am not in a very *perky* mood...Kerry I adore to death but lately she has been whining like crazy. Andrea Mcardle and Audra Mcdonald at some points.

Oddly enough there are not that many performers who annoy me, but I agree with everyone who said Sarah Brightman. Ugh! My boyfriend says she sounds like Miss Piggy on helium. And while I like Ethel Merman I agree with that too.

Carolee Carmello. I liked her on the Parade soundtrack, but her vibratto was too goat like in person and it annoyed me. Maybe it was an off-day, but I was cringing during the Wall to Wall.
I second Mandy, Ethel, MJW. Patti Lupone is ok in small doses. Rebecca Luker's voice doesn't annoy me so much as I find it terribly uninspiring. She has a good voice...it's just...there's nothing unique about it. Celeste Holms, a lot of the "character actresses" in R & H OBC's.
Leslie Ann Warren from the 60's Cinderella movie, Jennifer Holiday (I know, but it's the yelling-singing that I don't like), Barbra Streisand sometimes annoys me-less though than when I was younger, Carol Channing, The Laurie on the recent London Cast with Hugh Jackman.
