I'm ready to admit that this is a phenomenon, but I don't immediately dislike it. I think someone can do this weird voice and it can still be compelling. It turns out that Halsey seems to do it a lot and I like her stuff

its not weird voice. Its an inability to actually sing and its a shortcut.

If I like the song itself, the voice won't usually bother me.

On its surface, I don’t hate it and even really like some of it. But when you look behind the curtain you see it’s cheap, completely unoriginal and manipulative, like sexy baby voice from a stripper.

I don't see how it is manipulative? It seems like it is just a trendy way of singing. Like opera.

If you really think about it all types of singing are "manipulative"

Dude, what in the actual fuck???

Do you even realize how ridiculous this sounds?

I get it that this Indie Chick accent thing is really annoying - but you can just choose not to listen to the music if you don't like it - and that sure as shit doesn't mean we should turn around and disenfranchise the entire female population??!?!

That's it Argo. Put up your dukes mustard

when you put it that way, I guess all forms of communication are manipulative?

You know this is another Australian, yeah?

Having said that I believe she fits the bill. Regardless how popular this song was across the planet it seems that this is how she sounds across all songs. That's both annoying and means (like Kate Miller Heidke I posted earlier) every song ends up sounding the same.
