My own, often ridiculous, prejudice/bias.
Two bands and a singer automatically spring to mind because of the lead singer/front man.
Firstly U2, who in the early days I liked but as soon as Bonio(Bono) started crawling up his own egocentric backside, coupled with the guitarist choosing go by the pretentious ‘The Edge’🙀I stopped listening to.
Coldplay, I’ve heard next to nothing of their music, other than the odd snippets which I’ve quite liked but because I sensed a bandwagon of dislike towards Chris Martin, I decided to jump on for no good reason at all!
Finally, for the moment, String (Sting) who I really liked when in the Police but since he went solo, I have probably heard next to nothing of his music but since he seemed to be heading in the same direction as Bonio, or perhaps because the Police disbanded or all that Tantric stuff, my own prejudice ran riot!

Bono/U2 - for some of the stupid ecomaniac stuff and the whole here's our album which has been forced into your phone crap
Adele - just find her incredibly irritating and unlikeable
Jessie J - shit songs and a punchable face
Billie Eilish - manager is obsessed with her and I don't like my manager, therefore I bloody hate Billie Eilish3 -

I'm with you Sillav, liked Boy & War, never liked Coldplay or the Police.1

Robbie Williams, end of thread.8

Phil Collins - utterly pointless
Bono - up his own arse
Sting - ???
Bob Geldof - useless music1 -
Yet, when ‘Let Me Entertain You’ was played at the end of the 1998 Play Off Final, I really liked it and thought it very appropriate for such a great game.iaitch said:Robbie Williams, end of thread.0 -
Was just going to put
Phil Collins and Robbie Williams , can't stand either of them.

Completely agree about U2/bono
Beatles-Have never understood the hysteria about them and then the more people go on about how brilliant they are the more I dislike them
Michael Jackson-kiddie fiddler and should be treated the same as Gary Glitters music I have to turn off or over whenever his music comes on
Cliff Richard-Just can’t stand the bloke
Oasis-Both brothers complete dickheads0 -
Bob Geldof......simply hugely overrated, his charity work not withstanding.
The Monkeys....fabricated American rubbish, shamelessly created to ride into town off the back of The Beatles.0 -
Madonna. Just never understood the adoration she's received over the years.0

John Barnes.
One hit wonder and shit when he played for us10 -
I think my biggest problem with Radiohead is the guitarist's face and hair1

Same for me with Queen and Brian May, ridiculous hairstyle but is that any reason to dislike, for me the all round empathic guy, YES!McBobbin said:I think my biggest problem with Radiohead is the guitarist's face and hair0 -
Beyonce - boring, unoriginal and up herself.0

Ha, I’m not sure I even know what she looks like or heard her music but as soon as I see or hear her name, the hairs go up on my spine!Wilma said:Beyonce - boring, unoriginal and up herself.1 -
The Gallagher brothers, proud Mancunians who wax lyrical about how great the north is,and then as soon as they've made a bit of money, move down south, wankers6

I always had an irrrational hatred of Johnny Borrell from Razorlight. A friend persuaded me to go see them for their comeback show last year and I was actually quite impressed, maybe I was wrong, maybe he was alright after all. We went to see them again the other week and he invited Extinction Rebellion on stage for the encore and really ruined the mood, so he is now firmly back in the Unspeakable Twat Box, proving that my initial baseless loathing was, in fact, correct!

Pete Doherty. Famous for being an unwashed junkie and ploughing Kate Moss. His music is complete shit.11

Makes great music and is without doubt a fine vocalist.Addick Addict said:Mick Hucknall
His character and demeanour may be a bit questionable.......but as a performer I think he’s excellent.
Are you allowing your dislike of him as a person to cloud his ability as a performer, they are of course two very different things?0 - Sponsored links:

Absolutely and spot on. I don't doubt that he has a great voice but, in order to like someone, I have to warm to them as a person which I really can't. It actually hurts that he can sing so well!SoundAsa£ said:

I am of course well aware that he as a person isn’t universally popular.2 -
