Who can't sing??

There was a thread a couple of years back which was about singers who couldn't sing.. and I remembered someone had included Eddie Vedder in it. I ran across him on Youtube recently and have since played a few of his songs which include the soundtrack from "Into The Wild" but I really do like this version of   The Times They Are A Changing

I'll not answer this question until I have time to compose "a reasoned and balanced critique" about those singers whom i feel might fall into this category.

Johnny... the thread was not really to invite opinions on who can't sing... it was in answer to a criticism of Eddie Vedders singing.... Best wishes, MIke.

Ah Ok, as I was going to say, I can't sing.

Snakes. They can't sing at all.

We can all answer the question in a meaningful way, just as soon as someone gives us a definition of "good singing" that everyone can agree on.

We might be able to come up with some examples of attempted singing that we would all agree to be just so g**d**n stinking bad as to be beyond the pall, but I would hate to even bet too much on that. : )

There's obvously interest in revisiting the debate.

I'll relaunch it now under "Who can't sing 2011"
