      Liam Gallagher (Oasis). I saw them perform at KROQ's Almost Acoustic Christmas in 1995 (2nd Night btw). Musically, it was awesome, but Liam just kinda stood there, lazily sang into the mic and that was it. After that, when he started going on about being better than the band they blatantly ripped off, The Beatles (which I'm a DIE HARD fan of as are most people for sure), I pretty much checked out of being a fan of Oasis. Sad really, they're actually a great band.

  • @filippolippi02

    Sorry but songs like Mayonaise, Today, 1979 etc. would never hit the same without Corgan's fragile and unique voice. It's part of the whole sound. If they had a 'grungy' singer with a beefy voice it would just get swallowed up by the fuzz. The Pumpkins sound is a coherent package and it earned them platinum upon platinum. Hard disagree on Creed too.

    • @Kat-tr2ig
      @Kat-tr2ig 2 дні тому

      It was Corgan's antics, not his voice, that ruined Smashing Pumpkins. I love the band, but the dude is absolutely insufferable. As for Creed, go look up the live version of Alter Bridge's Words Darker Than Their Wings, and then listen to any song by Scott Stapp. He can't sing. He's also a hypocritical twat, as his lyrics preached one thing but his actions were completely difference (which is why Tremonti kicked him out- he stated that Stapp's morals didn't align with the rest of the band nor their message).

    in Rock, you can have a singer with a "bad" singing voice, and as long as it is a unique voice that compliments the music and comes across well in a live performance setting, that's what ultimately matters. Music history is littered with forgotten bands with competent singers that didn't have especially distinctive vocals.

      He wanted to acquire the company and everyone in the industry thought he would do it.
      But he wasn't just going to own it, he was going to appear on it weekly, as a Vince McMahon like character.
      He was going to appear on the show weekly and set up matches and be the authority figure, and would even have the occassional match.
