Jared Leto screams like a newborn baby. I feel liberated having said that.
Newborn baby screams is music to my ears and I enjoy it. :band:

i don't usually like refined screaming, for example like Jared leto from 30 seconds to mars i prefer screams that sound unrefined because they feel more honest, when you scream from your gut you don't care about harmonizing it much cause that's not the point the point is to transmit all you bottled inside in a single burst..
screams like that get to me, they feel liberating.
but more refined ones don't really move me they just sound good.
You like that nasty grit... I like that to!

To me, a good singer is someone who is able to convey a lot of feeling with their voice and is able to be part of the song rather than trying to sing over it.
Many sane people would describe those voices as ''F*cking ugly'', but I love it. It fits what they're trying to do perfectly, with a lot of aggression and energy.
The lyrics of no cash are pretty stupid for the most part btw. I can see why the creator hates it.

Do you think it matters if a singer is good in technical terms or do you think the emotional vulnerability of a singer is important?
I don't get why a singer can't be recognized as both?
I don't agree with the sentiment that if a singer is technically good they can't show emotion.

Exactly. hate it when people act like that if you're technically good at singing , you suddenly can't be good at the non technical stuff.

You are right
There are singers who are a natural at both but I come to find most of the really good singers are not good in technical terms and I think they are not good in technical terms because they become one with the song.

I prefer people with raw emotional voices usually more than I'd value technical skill
Efrim Menuck/Isaac Brock/Conor Oberst/Daniel Johnston/Maybe Phil Elverum would be good examples.
There is a balance obviously between the technical and the emotional that makes either or work. Not anybody could just pull it off.

I feel the same, although I enjoy both. This song really gets to me.
