Sexiest voice in music?

thebigcheese22 · 30-08-2009 1:40pm #1

Was just thinking bout this (prompted by the sexiest voice on radio thread)...

I would have to go for Kim Deal from the Pixies. When she sings the intro to Gigantic I nearly jizz in my pants!

What dya think? It can be a guy or women obviously!

OP are you talking about todays music or over the decades ? I could think of 25 female singers who could fit into title of sexiest voice in music .Mama Cass Elliot , Barbra Streisand , Karen Carpenter spring to mind while in more recent years Whitney Hueston Mariah Carey Christina Agularia and Beyonce's could fit the bill .As for Males , John Miles is a very underated singer but has a voice that could easy be called 'Sexy '

You just listed a bunch of bellowers!

Julie London would melt your heart or give you a hard on. Depending.

Good lord!!!! Really? Jayney mac, they're just bawlers. I mean........ Barbara Streisand? As many have said, Liz Fraiser and Laurie Anderson in Diva from Jean-Michel Jarre. Listen with headphones to this:

I've always found Janet Jackson's voice very sexy, which is a bit weird, cause she sounds quite similar to her brother.

Zooey Deschanel (She and Him), Jenny Lewis (Rilo Kiley), Emily Haines (Metric) and Feist.

They're all 'lovely girls' too, but Jenny is my favourite,

From the old-schoolers, nice to see Julie London on the first page. A lot of the female singers from that era had such superb voices, but hers really stands out.

landydef · 30-08-2009 11:08pm

leonard cohen without question and im a straight bloke!

The Big Red Button · 30-08-2009 11:17pm

Male: Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley, Duke Special (his accent really does it for me)

Female: Laura Izibor, Amy Winehouse (don't like her but love her music!)

Twee. · 30-08-2009 11:21pm

Mark Lanegan *swoooooon*

(Also, doesn't the intro sound a bit "Rabbit Fur Coat, Private Eye?')

Thing is our choices are subjective in that your choice is as valued as mine or anybodys in the thread .I wouldn't say Karen Carpeter or Carly Siomon are bawlers and I like Juilie London to but you listen to Streisend singing Evergreen and like Julie it's easy on the ears .
