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: 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: 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: 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!

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: To Fran Godfrey: the sexiest voice ever From: Doctor John Date: 28 Jul 99 - 05:14 PM Dear Franny, Now there's a surprise: you're a Mudcatter! When are you going to introduce and produce a radio programme - then we can have some real good music on Radio Two and your voice for two hours! I'll listen out for you in the morning. Best wishes, Dr John |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: MAG (inactive) Date: 28 Jul 99 - 05:49 PM Dear Rick, yes I have heard Barbara Dane, and have "I hate the capitalist system." Not her best song, but she sure could sing the blues. Is she still around? Sometimes her choice of material was too message-driven for her art. MA |
Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: MAG (inactive) Date: 28 Jul 99 - 09:47 PM This thread is beginning to remind me of the "Why do nice guys end up with mankillers, and vice-versa" thread. And a big second for Harrison Ford. MA |

Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Susan A-R Date: 28 Jul 99 - 11:15 PM As I've said before, I'd seriously consider walking over hot coals for John Jones in The Oyster Band. (Well, not quite, but nearly. As Leon Rosselson says.) Also, although it's not a voice, those low pan pipes do make me shiver. Susan |

Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: CarlZen Date: 29 Jul 99 - 11:54 PM MAG-- A few years ago a group callled the "Hot Club of San Francisco" released a CD. It is Django/Grapelli inspired swing. There are a few guest vocalists (my vote, Maria Muldaur included) and one of them is Barbara Dane, sounding good as ever. Very Bluesy. I hadn't heard of her doing anything for years, but I believe she resides somewhere in Northern CA. Anybody know anything more? |

Subject: RE: Vote for the sexiest voice ever From: Chris Amos Date: 28 Jul 04 - 01:31 AM Hi, Singing it has to be Shirley Collins, speaking it's currently Mariella Frostrup, but I remember back in the 80's there was a Scottish woman who used to read the Shipping Forecast of a night, the way she pronounced the word "poor" sent me to sleep with a smile on my face every time, I used to pray for fog.
