Two things that don't overlap much in terms of frequencies (i.e. Barry White and a squeaky violin) probably wouldn't sound good through a vocoder. What I mean is that the one wouldn't sound much DIFFERENT being affected by the other.

Robots, it would cancel out their real robot voices.

Bob Dylan I can tolerate unaltered, but through a vocoder he'd sound pretty creepy.

the last two examples are auto-tune, not vocoder.

auto-tuners code the vocals with a pitch.
