Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Alice Date: 28 Jul 99 - 10:51 AM Humphrey Bogart, Lauren Bacall Did you know there is a voice disorder called Bogart-Bacall syndrome? Bogart and Bacall spoke in their normal range for their voice, but there are people who strain their vocal cords by trying to speak lower than they were born to, and it's been given this name. Here's a link to an article about it from Center For Voice Disorders of Wake Forest University. BOGART-BACALL SYNDROME alice |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Bonedaddy Date: 28 Jul 99 - 10:39 AM Oh my my.....Joni Mitchell. In case I stuttered, Joni Mitchell! And did I mention, Joni Mitchell? It's that deep sultry oscillation thing...Wooooooo! I need a cold drink! |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Dan Date: 28 Jul 99 - 10:07 AM Have to say Nina Simone. Heard her live in a very small venue and it was electrifying. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Peter T. Date: 28 Jul 99 - 09:08 AM From the ladies' side: Greta Garbo had a voice that was even more beautiful than she looked. There is an album of her voice that should be handled with asbestos gloves. From the gent's: Why has no one mentioned Johnny Cash? yours, Peter T. |

Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Steve Parkes Date: 28 Jul 99 - 07:51 AM I find women who are heavy smokers usually have a laugh that - how can I put it? - stirs me! They vary from very sexy to utterly disgusting - I love it! I'm always tempted to ask if they have any other disgusting habits, but I usually manage not to. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Bugsy Date: 28 Jul 99 - 06:14 AM what about SARAH VAUGHAN or JOE COCKER?? |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Ana Date: 28 Jul 99 - 05:50 AM Wot ! Ike-the-woman-smacker-Turner? aka Ick Turner. Nope, sorry lovey - doesn't turn me on. I guess my prejudice gets in the way of that one. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Helen Date: 28 Jul 99 - 05:46 AM kat, His name is Shawn Mullins. I agree with Matthew B about Ingrid Bergman, and also her daughter, Isabella Rosselini. As for male voices - never really thought about it. Honest. I find quiet/unassuming intelligence sexy, and that's why I like all of Harrison Ford's movies - post-Star Wars of course. and seed, I suppose you've seen Jessica Rabbit's Peggy Lee act in Who Killed Roger Rabbit. Ah, the power of the cinema, that a cartoon can have such an effect on so many men. *BG* Helen |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Roger the zimmer Date: 28 Jul 99 - 04:12 AM Hmmm, difficult one, this. If we're talking singers it would have to be Peggy Lee. Actresses- too many to list, but I think Judi Dench gets the vote. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: KingBrilliant Date: 28 Jul 99 - 03:05 AM definitely and categorically Ike Turner. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: alison Date: 28 Jul 99 - 02:45 AM Joe, Thanks.... crawling will get you everywhere.... My vote like many above goes to Sean Connery, (and sexiest eyes) HHHHOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! slainte alison |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Ana Date: 28 Jul 99 - 02:38 AM yip - I'd agree with Margot Simmons (Cowboy Junkies) for the sultry sound: For my enjoyment of things testosterone however, it would have to be David Sylvian - as my Granny use to say "he could put his shoes under my bed any day!"mmmmsuch sensualitymmm If you haven't heard him yet...do! |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Alice Date: 28 Jul 99 - 02:35 AM Ronald Coleman. definitely. But then, all I can think of when I hear his voice now, is the ape from the cartoon George of the Jungle. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: j0_77 Date: 28 Jul 99 - 01:44 AM AT&T information hehe |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: katlaughing Date: 28 Jul 99 - 12:51 AM Right now, male: the guy with the group in the top 40's who sings "Lullaby" He kinda speaks part of it about a young girl crowing up in Hollywood and then he sings her a Lullaby "Everything gonna be alright, rockabye, rockabye" Don't knwo the name of the group or the song, but he has got one very sexy voice. Marlene Dietrich, definitely and I really like Ferron's voice, too. My girlfriend asked me to call her boyfriend, whom I had never met, on his birthday and sing the sexiest rendition of Happy Birthday I could. He didn't know who I was until later, but he wanted to meet me. We joked about it for several years after.:-) katlaughinginasultryway |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Les B Date: 28 Jul 99 - 12:10 AM From the days of radio - Miss Monitor from CD's Mary Black and possibly a combination of Ernest Tubb & Tiny Tim |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: thosp Date: 27 Jul 99 - 11:38 PM just kidding !!!!--------------i'd really have to say ------- for a woman (i agree with an above) Marlene Dietrich--------and for a guy ---Ronald Coleman |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: thosp Date: 27 Jul 99 - 11:35 PM i'd have to say ---- Minnie Pearl---- |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Snookadive Date: 27 Jul 99 - 10:26 PM I'm a big, brawny, hetero- construction worker of a guy but hearing Dick Gaughan sing The Snows They Melt the Soonest too many times could probably turn me. In which case I hurriedly throw on some Cowboy Junkies and Margot Timmons would retrieve me. Snookadive |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Mary Kate Date: 27 Jul 99 - 09:44 PM Ah, yes, Sean Connery definitely! As far as singers go, the other day when I listened to the Irish Tenor cd I was struck by the sexiness of John McDermott's voice. (Though it amazes me how he can get such wonderful sound out without hardly opening his mouth...) Then there is a friend of mine who I think has a very sexy voice, though you'll all have to take my word for it. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: CarlZen Date: 27 Jul 99 - 09:32 PM I'll have to ditto Maria Muldaur. When I first saw her perform she drove me nuts (it was with the Kweskin Jug Band). I've seen her a couple of times in the past few years. She just gets sexier (better) and sexier (better) all the time - and she's still singing "Don't you feel my leg". Maura O'Connell is right up there, too. On the male side, I'd have to say the bass singer for the Fairfield Four (gospel quartet). He's another one who could just read the phone book and send electrodes through the system. |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Mike Billo Date: 27 Jul 99 - 09:18 PM Not exactly a household name, but '40's Jazz and Blues vocalist Ella Mae Morse. WOW! |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Mudjack Date: 27 Jul 99 - 08:55 PM Sandy Bob....Sex symbols don't blush, they just get sexier. So sing low...er. Mudjack |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: bseed(charleskratz) Date: 27 Jul 99 - 08:19 PM I agree with Mudjack and Banjoman about Julie London--I was listening to a CD of her singing "Cry Me a River" a few weeks ago. Fantastic. And with Bert about Eartha Kitt--"The Birds Do It" and "Santa Baby." And just to be original, the one I thought of when I first saw the thread: Peggy Lee. Remember "Lover"? Not only her voice, but her performance style--she didn't move her feet, she just seemed to writhe inside her skin. Wow. --seed |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Don Meixner Date: 27 Jul 99 - 08:18 PM Too many to choose. Male: Edward Woodward, James Earl Jones, Gordon Bok, Paddy Reilly, Arnold Stang. Female: A young Tammy Grimes, Julie London, Keely Smith, Priscilla Herman Martha Raye

Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: SandyBob Date: 27 Jul 99 - 08:10 PM I second Dinah Shore in her earlier years...goodness me...warm, sexy and vulnerable. And I've never heard her sing but would happily listen to Thiona Ritchie read the entire Chicago phone book. SandyBob note to margarita: you make me blush, you silver-tongued devil-ette :-) |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: John in Brisbane Date: 27 Jul 99 - 08:00 PM There was a recent thread about 'Is That All There Is'. I fell in love with Peggy Lee and 'Fever' at age 9.
Margarita, give me a call some time and I'll show you my rich, vibrant bass radio voive, with an Australian accent. In fact come out to the Woodford Festival here between Christmas and New Year and escape Winter for a while.
Regards |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Bill D Date: 27 Jul 99 - 06:04 PM why has no one mentioned Edith Piaf? |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Joe Offer Date: 27 Jul 99 - 06:00 PM You know, I received a CD last year that leads me to believe that the winner of this "sexiest voice" contest might well be the FAIR ONE, otherwise known as Alison. -Joe Offer, shamelessly stealing Mick's very words- |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Banjoman_CO Date: 27 Jul 99 - 05:55 PM Right on, Mudjack!!! I can't imagine only one vote for JULIE LONDON. O, does she bring back memories. Julie Sommers is also pretty sexy. |
