I really don’t get this thread. Like none of these people are trying to be opera singers or whatever. In rock n’ roll music, singing is meant to sound unique and get across emotion. If you do that, then you are a “good singer”. Being a good singer has a different definition in rock or indie music than it does in classical or jazz or whatever.
Most of the people here are legends and perfectly convey emotion with a unique sound. That makes them “technically good” in that style. I really do understand that people can dislike particular, but that really should not be the same as calling unique innovators “bad singers”.
