Not really, considering that you'd have to be medically brain dead and on a life support machine to not notice that fact! Even deaf people know Nicky Wire can't sing

The Manics make me happy and that's all I care about. I don't care if they haven't been musical pioneers or whatever. They are immensely talented and it has been a privilege to see them performing live. I look forward to many more gigs to come!

You and I actually seem to agree on most things, just so long as those things aren't related to the Manic Street Preachers

Meanwhile at Manics HQ...

James: R.E.M. have split up!
Sean: Aww, that's a shame.
Nicky: We should totally do an R.E.M. cover to pay tribute!
James: Are you sure Nicky? This would mean you'd have to learn how to play it?
Nicky: Ah... right... ok then... er...

Well they could always wheel out The Year of Purification as a tribute, with what being a song musically inspired by R.E.M. and all (IIRC AFAIK ETC).

How come only Richey got the nickname Richey Manic?
Why was there never a Nicky Manic or Sean Manic?
