There's a big difference between having a poor voice and being a weak
singer. Dylan, for my money, is one of the greatest singers ever in rock
music. Newman and Stipe are in this camp as well. None of them have what
many would call "good voices." Which only supports what the Darkness fans
are saying. However, for me it's not a matter of "getting" it, and I think
others are expressing the same thing. Some people love it, and others, like
me, think it's a pile. The problem with this whole topic is the arrogant
original post. Why don't Americans get it? Give me a fucking break.
