Who's the ugliest famous male singer that sings love songs?

My vote goes to Jimmy Nail


It's like god said "sorry for making you like this, I'll give you this voice to make up for it"
 
Seal, how can you get around that scar. Prop on him banging supermodel Heidi Klim though
 
Jesus christ, that goes beyond hideous, he actually looks like a bad omen personified.
Ha, he's my favorite vocalist of all time (well, tied with Tom Waits) so I find some charm even in that ugly mug. His voice is magnificent though, even when he can barely slur his words together.

He's one of those people everyone had in their dead pools decades ago but still outlasts everyone.

He certainly sounds a lot better than he looks! Never really listened to them - this could well be the first song i hear by them - is it all in this vein, like 'Irish pub'?
Yeah Tom Waits is a good example...not exactly a conventional beauty by any stretch of the imagination but if you're a fan his face becomes super charming :)
 
Billy Joel and Ric Ocasek
They both nailed super-models. Ric nailed a bunch and was like a pass-around for them.

Women can get into confident guys that look different.
 
Every white one right now. Kind of think it's a conspiracy or something. There are better looking white guys that can sing.
 


This is a cute song by today's standards.. But it's all guys like him and Ed Sheeran. If I was a young girl, and these were the white guys picked to be sex symbols, I would think I better date something else. I would literally think that. I'm not being racist against blacks, but maybe a little against whites. You're fkn finished if this guy and Ed Sheeran are the most well know musical artists. Finished.

Yeah, he's basically the founder of the Irish folk/punk genre (though his devotees lack the same songwriting prowess). He pairs beautifully with soft female vocalists:


And of course, the de facto official Christmas song of NYC:


But it's his talents as a lyricist that truly makes him stand out. I can't think of a more poetic songwriter in modern rock music.

“His songs, even though they are hard-edged, always have empathy for the characters in them,” says Bobby Gillespie, lead singer of Primal Scream. “He has a brutal eye for detail and he can tell a story in a concise but almost cinematic way using these amazing images that just hit you in the heart with their tenderness and emotion.”

Thanks so much, for the intro, info and songs - really appreciate it, and look forward to checking it out :) Have a great weekend.

Tom Waits was very handsome as a young man. But whiskey and cigarettes...

If you recall Milli Vanilli, they were two pretty boys who lip synced and were exposed. The real singer of their songs was not a handsome guy by any means so both Milli and the real singer faded into oblivion.

I was recently listening to Bruno Mars and the thought came to me of how nowadays you have less then the sexiest men singing romantic ballads.

I don't listen to Ed Sheeran but does he sing sappy love songs? If so, he gets my vote.
My first thought was Ed Sheeran. Also Barry White was pretty fat from what I remember.

Meatloaf too
