While I understand why this would be the case, I would say that Florence Foster Jenkins, if no one else, does belong on this page, if only because she knew it. The Epitaph on her headstone reads, "Many said I couldn't sing. No one can say I didn't."
The early bird gets the worm, which is great if you like worms for breakfast.I'd say that some Idol auditions from around the world definitely qualify for Real Life examples, such as this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTfKTKGyJIs
Edited by 203.57.209.105Or the awful warning which is [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Shaggs#History[The Shaggs]]. That's not being subjective or YMMV: a deluded authoritarian father who forces daughters with little musical ability into a girl-group, convinced they are going to be the Next Big Thing. It could only have ended one way...
Male, early sixties, Cranky old fart, at least two decades behind. So you have been warned. Functionally illiterate in several languages.This should be In-Universe Examples Only, to let people know that this is not a trope for complaining about music they don't like.
Limpin' with the bizkit.This trope is about comedically bad singing that hurts audiences. So Yui for K-On! doesn't count because her bad singing is fairly realistic.
Also removing this:
- Vampire: The Masquerade brings us the Daughters of Cacophony, a vampire bloodline that specializes in madness inducing sounds. Averted in that, despite the name, the bloodline selects good singers — it's their vampiric magic that gives their music its effects.
It belongs under Brown Note.
Stories don't tell us monsters exist; we knew that already. They show us that monsters can be trademarked and milked for years.
The reason this is a No Real Life Examples Please trope is so people won't put Real Life musicians— but people seemed to think it meant "no examples in a folder labelled Real Life".
