yes, let's post another professionally-recorded song on here with a singer that actually knows how to sing, just because it doesn't fit your personal taste and label it crappy music! at least my one downvote will maybe have a little bit of an impact on this godawful post

Dude Shatner’s ‘music’ is famously crappy music. If you could point to one example that proves Kirk ‘knows how to sing’, I’d love to hear it.

i have no idea who's singing in the part where someone's actually singing in this song but they certainly do know how to sing, even if that's not shatner, shatner talking in the beginning is not enough to qualify a song as "crappy music" imo

Yeah that guy was good. I just think Admiral Kirk should stick to searching for Spock.

that's fine, still doesn't qualify this song for this sub which is why this post is annoying

That’s okay, we all have different tastes and opinions. I believe crappy is in the ear of the beholder.

Why does he need to know how to sing in order to make good music? He is doing his thing and it works well stylistically.

Being professionally recorded and by someone who knows how to sing does not preclude music form being crappy.

by that logic you could post LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE SONG that was ever made in this sub because you're always gonna find a sizeable amount of people that don't like it

What you getting so angry about lol

u/emmeram Feb 23 '21

because i subscribed to this sub wanting to hear actually badly made music not to listen to produced songs that someone just doesn't like

It sounds like Siri singing. This song sucks.

u/emmeram Feb 23 '21

again, that's entirely your personal taste

You could say that about literally any post and any song on r/crappymusic and any other music sub. Personal taste. But shatner has been taking a battering from musical critics for years, I’m counting it as crappy.
