[Utopia]

Tricky's voice is well sexy!

Love the girls voice from Bat for Lashes too

 

[Roadkill]

Richard Hawley

Always thought Heather Small had a rather sexy voice.

About as sexy as the foghorn on a lighthouse, which she rather resembles IMO.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Yeah, she sings down her nose. Enid can do a brilliant impersonation.

 

[Maurice Picarda]

That woman from Portishead. Beth something.

 

[ebonics]

Chris Cornell
Method Man
Marvin Gaye

 

[Fictionist]

Marvin Gaye had a fantastic singing voice but when I have heard recordings of him speaking in a non-musical and musical setting it really wasn't quite what I expected - a good example being the vocal introduction to the album mix of 'My Love Is Waiting'.

 

[Disaster]

I don't think I know why, but I've always thought Björk has quite a sexy singing voice. It's probably the giggles and funny sound effects that does it for me.

 

[breasticles]

mark sandman from morphine. josh homme. tricky, yes. peaches, yes. i've had to stop listening to peaches because i'm not getting any and her music makes me angry about this fact. i would currently avoid qotsa records for the same reason.

That woman from Portishead. Beth something.

Beth Gibbons. Yeah, on tracks like "Roads" she sounds like she's giving you a glimpse inside her soul, and that's sexy in an odd kind of way. Emma Pollock of The Delgados can do it to a certain extent too.

Roads used to kill me - the live version on the Bowery Ballroom album was am-az-ing.


I love Guru's voice.

Roads used to kill me - the live version on the Bowery Ballroom album was am-az-ing.

Along with Johnny Cash's "Hurt", it definitely the song most likely to make me cry. Hauntingly beautiful.

ebonics, agree about Method Man. His gravelly voice sounds like the MC version of Greg Dulli's rasp.

 

[Mation]

Alessandro Baricco on City Reading with Air. Never has counting to four been quite so alluring

David Bowie on most things

Donny Hathaway, sexy and heartbreakingly sad at once.

Beth Gibbon, definitely.

I hate Heather Small's voice so much that I can well imagine some freak must find her sexy - extremes and all that. *shudders not in the least bit pleasurably*

 

[Magic Sam]

Wee Bea Booze
Mildred Anderson
Big Mama Thornton

 

[dilute micro]

I've always liked Dido and I think Sarah McLaughlin's voice is nice.

 

[dilute micro]

 

[puck]

Another vote for Josh Homme. And Iggy Pop who I'm going to see in Clapham Common tomorrow..heehee! And the singer of Gogol Bordello...there's something very sexy about that accent.

 

[El Jefe]

Another PJ Harvey vote here.

Stuff like Teclo. Jesus

 

[ebonics]

Donny Hathaway, sexy and heartbreakingly sad at once.

yep, yep, yep

 

[Dillinger4]

Anne Foy.

 

[Hi-ASL]

Noddy Holder. Joe Pasquale. William Hague.

This is just a phwoar thread snuck in through the backdoor. I protest at this objectification of vocal noise.

 

[Dillinger4]

You said backdoor.

[SpookyFrank]

Regina Spektor when she goes all operatic. And those two lasses from CocoRosie.
