He is classically trained, went to music school.
Totally not my thing at all, but he has a far better musical education than I do.

Alternatively, when thread starters know shit all about someone's background.

Yup.

Choral Scholar.

Not my cuppa but the bloke can sing.

RocknRollDave

Quick check tells me that his first album sold about 160,000 copies in the first year or so.
Motorhead's album around the same time sold less than a tenth of that. No so stupid agent!

Bridgehouse

So wanted that to be the RAF pilots doing some rapping over an orchestra.

I think hes a knobber at the best of times, I don't find him funny at all. I wouldn't listen to but its not offensive other than having to look at his smug boat race for a minute.

My mum loves him singing. She's 92. I think that's his target audience tbh.

Easy tiger, I know all about his background. So does he, and that's why he went into writing and comedy. I was going to post his Fields of Gold cover and video but mysteriously you can not view it on youtube anymore. It's that bad. 

And to everyone else that remarks about classically trained, technically good voice, etc. Wow, there are a multitude of people classically trained, can technically sing well, but they're rubbish.

But I'd say he's not one of them. 

He sells records, in this day and age that's miraculous.

And he's doing something he loves. 

That's something we all aspire to I think.

I agree that is shit.
