Why do they think because they are famous either on the big screen or Tv, they think they can sing as well, there might be the odd exception but on the whole...........nope

 

Ones that spring to mind:

 

Richard Harris...............Macarthur Park got to #4 in 1968

Telly Savalas................If #1 in 1975

Clint Eastwood..............I talk to the trees #18 in 1970

Lee Marvin...................Wondering Star #1 in 1970

 

Any others?

 

 

MacArthur Park wasn't too bad but I agree with the others

 

Telly Savalas absolutely ruined the Bread classic and did the same with the follow-up - the Righteous Brothers classic You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin' which also charted but a peak of a lowly #47

Bruce Willis - Return of Bruno album I liked, had some good songs on it, he is the only singer that comes to mind as a credible singer

 

I agree, it wasn't too bad. I liked Respect Yourself and Under The Boardwalk.

Does David Hasselhoff count? :lol:

Michelle Gayle from Eastenders (played Hattie Tavernier) gave up Eastenders to do singing and she was a bloody good singer who made the chart a few times ^_^

i liked one of hers.... 'looking up', her first hit in '93.

Gweneth Paltrow I believe would be a candidate for this imo, her singing voice isn't too awful though.
