Who sings in your register?

[blondeatlast]

When I went to pick up my son, "Love Come Down" by Evelyn "Champagne" King came on, and of course I chimed in (summer AZ means windows UP!).

Damned if she doesn't have a great voice . . .

On edit: thanks UDL--again.

:toast:

[Ashes]

1. aliens

with a sense of humor

[Bossy Monkey]

2. Dunno, only Zevon and that Crash Test Dummies guy sing in my register

so I can't get picky enough to worry about keys. (Generally, my key is "off-")

[blondeatlast]

3. You're right--I should have said register

nm

[SOteric]

4. That would be

a pack of wild coyotes sorting out that whole 'Alpha Dog' thing.

[GOPisEvil]

7. Mine is....

...a gravel truck with a bad clutch and worn brakes.

But, alone, in my car, I sound JUST LIKE whomever is singing! :7

[SOteric]

19. Hey! Me too!

...I wonder what it is about the acoustical properties of cars...

[BlueJazz]

5. B.J. Thomas

[Ashes]

6. I like the twenties

but the fifties appeal to me in special ways.

[Ramsey]

8. Grace Slick

Melissa Etheridge
Janis Joplin
Joan Jett
Tracy Chapman
Joan Osborne

Yeah, I've got kind of a deep voice.
Can hear me here: http://ramsey.dca.net/versigh.html

[GOPisEvil]

9. Oh yeah! I'd buy that!

I've heard the voice! :-)

[Ramsey]

10. Hmmmmm

I don't recall any karaoke, or any other singing for that matter. Care to remind me? :-)

[GOPisEvil]

11. Well, I've heard the stuff on your site!

Plus, I have heard you speak. I can hear Grace Slick coming out of your mouth.

Of course, I could just be buttering you up. in case I need to be adopted. ;-)

[Ramsey]

12. Oh man

You had me scared there for a minute. I thought I had another one of those black outs and started serenading random sexy hot evil DUers who were attending my party... and then, oh, never mind!

[GOPisEvil]

13. Well there was those few minutes when your hubby was gone...

...I can neither confirm nor deny what evil activity went on while Pitt napped on the floor.

Edit - they're? their? NO - THERE! :dunce:

[mitchum]

14. All those baritones

Iggy, Reed, Bowie, Morrison, McCulloch, Curtis, Cash, Cale (I can even do them from different periods in their careers) Surprisingly enough, Ian Curtis is the most difficult (he had this tendency to go flat at the end of a line)

[Aristus]

15. Jim Morrison, Leonard Cohen and Brad Roberts (of the Crash Test

Dummies). As you've probably guessed, I'm a baritone, too. It's a lot of fun singing like Morrison. Sometimes I'll sing "The Soft Parade" to see how low I can get. "The man is...at...the ...dooooooooooooooor!"

:D

[smiths_fan_21384]

16. Oddly enough

Or coincidentally, my voice is damn near identical to Morrissey's. That, I suppose, is why I really like the Smiths. I learned all those songs because they were the only ones that sounded good when I sang them.

[geniph]

17. Ever heard anyone playing a saw?

Only dogs can hear my singing voice. Some call it lyric soprano. Others say, "What the hell is that shrieking?"

[supernova]

18. I'm an alto

so some of those would be

- Sheryl Crow, I think.
- Carly Simon
- Toni Braxton

[SOteric]

20. Annie Lenox,

she's an alto, as well...

[supernova]

23. Oh Thanks!

Yes, Annie is an Alto! Another reason to love Annie. :D

[Aristus]

25. You need a reason to love Annie Lennox?

Poor you. The woman is a goddess.

[ProfessorGAC]

21. Cy Curnin, Todd Rundgren, Daryl Hall, et al

The Professor

[ronnykmarshall]

22. A cat on a fence!

[Loonman]

24. Peter Murphy

I can hit his entire octave range.


Also Richard Butler(Pychedelic Furs).

[blm]

26. Lucy Ricardo.

;)))))

[Hell Hath No Fury]

27. Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole...

and I'm a woman!

I have a very low singing voice for a woman -- when doing chorus/choral work I usually end up singing tenor. When I was a young girl I sang second soprano but puberty hit and I was suddenly sounding like Maude.

Performing major roles in musicals became almost impossible for me -- they just don't make many roles for women with low voices. I looked like the perfect ingenue but sang like the male lead. :) (I do a mean Tony in "West Side Story"!)

28. Bono

I can usually do U2 songs pretty well.
