"Can't carry a tune" didn't hurt Neil Young or Dave Matthews either. They are different for sure. Melodious and harmony is fine but I admit to having a prejudice when the covers are sugar coated versions of an original edgy tune. I would probably enjoy them more if they did original stuff that well. For beautiful voices, I prefer Joni Mitchell or Joan Baez.
But hey, taste is like noses. We all have one and they're all different. To each his own.
