Have all the singers swapped styles?

I've started listening to the radio again and think I might be going mad.
The new Ed Sheehan song sounds like James Blunt is singing it.
The new James Blunt song sounds like Chris de Burgh is singing it.
The new Sting song sounds like he's auditioning for Del Amitri.
So weird....

Either that, or music has become so bland it all sounds the same. Or gulp … you’re getting old.

Yeh, I'd agree with that. Especially if you're listening to the type of station that plays James Blunt and Sting. You wouldn't hear them on Capital these days.

Good points both!
It was radio 2. And I am old (obv) but still, it is as if they are doing 'stars in their eyes'.

Shivers: clearly an Ed Sheehan song, but sung in a James Blunt style...why?
I can't even rem mbr the titles of the others but the same applies.

I thought the Sting song sounded like Cliff Richard.

The Roger Taylor one sounds like Rod Stewart.
