Greatest Voice Ever?
What's the greatest voice you have ever heard? It doesn't have to be a famous singer, perhaps just someone you heard talking somewhere or something.

Personally I think that Leontyne Price (Opera legend) she has the greatest voice I have ever heard; vocal colours are amazing, and her phrasing is beyond reality. Whenever I hear her voice, I rise above reality.

And you?

It's a tie between Vincent Price and James Earl Jones. To hear Price recite Poe gives me chills. I could sit and listen to James Earl Jones read the phone book and not be bored!

Paul Frees I have always liked for his voiceovers, Ken Nordine the same, and on the very relaxing, pretty side, Barbara Gaskin, whose voice adds something special to any song.

Hmmm.. Tie between Katherine Mcfee and Kelly Pickler.


before you all shoot, i am kidding...

For voice talent...

He: Lane Staley. Amazing power and control. real shame, and a far bigger loss of talent than Kurt Cobain....

She: Shoot me, but either Celine Dion or Whitney Houston, just in terms of sheer control

As voice actors go, i would have to say a 3 way tie between Dan Castelenetta, Harry Shearer and Hank Azaria. I love the simpsons more than i love most things.
