redheart 7,440 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 when it came to liking a song/group obviously the instrumental is important but if the voices singing over it make you cringe would you like the song anyways? I realised this earlier cause I was listening to a song when the instrumental started I was low key bopping my head to it however when the vocals kicked in it made me cringe so much I couldn't even listen till the end, like it wasn't even a bad singer, it's just the way his voice sounded that made me cringe to my very core it's weird because I never thought about this but now that I'm thinking about it singers/groups that I don't stan, I'm usually not found of their voices I'm not talking about technicality or singing skills here just the mere sound of the voice tone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunny 5,676 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 i think that would be off putting but for me, i can stand a cringey voice if the song is just that good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitargeekette 5,960 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 LOL, I've been saying this forever. I don't get how ppl like stuff with terrible vocals, But whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue7kaoru 17,423 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I've been thinking about this a lot too. Some songs are very good but because of the person singing it isn't a great singer or their vocal tone isn't good it makesit seem like the song is bad.

IjuswannaseeEXO 1,908 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Me with Bodak Yellow. The beat hits though and I'm starting to like it the more I hear it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddy Marx 4,825 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Tbh this is me with some people like Justin Bieber, like some of his songs are really good in terms of the beat or the lyrics, but I just don't like his voice that much so when I hear them it's just like meh but then it's why I love them so much when Kookie sings them, because I love how his voice sounds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buttered Sone 5,552 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Who were you listening to? But I agree, I don’t care/know much about technicality but a crap tone throws me off even if the song is otherwise great. And vice versa, a song that would be probably sonically boring can be elevated by a great voice too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ddeona Oneul Bame 61,631 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 It's kinda like why some people make not like a song that much but when their faves cover it, the like it more~ It's not that they really dislike the song, just the voices of the people singing but prefer if it's the voices of someone they like~ Like I wouldn't give AF about quite a few EXO songs if it weren't for EXO-M's versions~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sad how many exo-l's only listen to the Korean versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WonderJoyous 10,634 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Vocals can be very important for me in a song, if the voices annoy me I won't listen to the song no matter how good it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ideonsshi 936 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 If the composers or at least the singer him/herself know how to put the vocals right then I might still like the song, but if it's lowkey cringy then I won't even bother listening at all.

Girl Talk 1,960 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Vocals can be important but I've never considered them crucial when it comes to pop music which I've always looked at more in terms of composition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nobody12345hehe 285 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 me when i heard momo sing in likey I see where people are coming from with not liking her voice, but to me it's a very pleasant tone, it's strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
