I quite like (that's right - present tense) Huey, but I gotta admit it's always been something of a guilty pleasure... smiley - winkeye

Let's see... artists who've made a decidedly negative impression on me recently, who, far from being just outside my taste, offer no demonstration of musical talent whatsoever:

Nelly
S Club
LL Cool J
Eminem

Most hip-hop artists who collaborate with female vocalists who sing in a passable manner, but then prevent the song from being tolerable by mouthing off at regular intervals. Busta Rhymes.

Others who's identities escape me at the moment.

And then there are some artists who I just don't like, but I won't go into them as they're not necessarily the worst ones in the world, they're just ones I don't think produce the right kind of music.

Actually, I'd probably put tAtU on the list of people with very little talent, but I still like their stuff. The people above are people with very little talent who use it in the worst way imaginable.

In my humble opinion.

Hmm, I like Norah Jones, but not really all that much. I wouldn't choose to listen to her music over, say, something really good (but unspecified).

I do like Pink.

I'm also rather interested to see someone who doesn't like Elvis, because I don't either. I guess the full impact of his work is only known by the people who lived through that time, because he seems distinctly tame and boring these days. I have to say even Gareth Gates' version of Suspicious Minds is better smiley - yikes.

That doesn't mean, of course, that I like Gareth Gates either... I find most of his music so distinctly average that it just sweeps below the radar.

Pink has been overplayed to the point that I want to scream. Elvis is just...ick. That's my opinion, and it may have something to do with road trips where my paternal unit would play that one casette over and over and over... I don't really mind tame, it's just...ick. Garth Brooks doesn't do anything for me, but I do have a great love for Jim Croce.

I think that Alanis Morrisette is a great singer. I have heaps of favourites though. I also think that U2 and the Mighty Mighty Bosstones are also terrific. Lol, the Princess Diaries is on, lol. *Wonders why a 15-year old male like himself is laughing at the princess diaries*...
