Do you like the sound of your voice?

whiteboy

genuine question

Kiera

I hear my voice totally different in my head. I don’t like my message minder voice or if I hear myself back on a video. But everyone gets me and my little sis confused on the phone and say we sound the exact same. I like her voice but not mine for some reason….

thehairyelbow

Can't say I do. Flat west of Ireland thing going on.

Kojak

I thought that if you heard yourself talking, then it could make you stammer. I don't know - that's just what I heard.

From my point of view, I couldn't care less what I sound like. There's no sound on boards.ie

CharlesHaughey

Yes I do, and the ladies really like it.

Archeron

Yes, its like chocolate coated marmalade in the ears.

Ruu_Old

Yes, have to say it is fairly spectacular.

In my head my voice sounds nice and rugged yet can coherently and intelligently phrase my sentences.

In real life I sound like a diseased donkey shooting scuttery shìte out of it's mouth while a crazy screaming Scotsman smacks a bag of wailing cats against it.

krudler

after a night on the whiskey, yes, I hear it all the time at work so dont have the "I dont sound like that!" thing anymore

Azureus

Doesnt bother me either way. I've a neutral enough voice I think...
Always think it sound really high when I hear it back but apparently it doesnt really. or my friends lie. Either way im good at denial

Sabre0001

In my own head, yes.

Recorded, not so much...But I'm getting more and more used to it!

My name is URL

No way.. I cringe whenever I hear a recording of myself

WIZE

I like it when I am speaking

I sound like a Knacker when I hear it played back to me

I like what it sounds like when I speak. If I listen to a recording of myself though it's like "What?! I DON'T sound like that!!!!!"

Exact same with me

michelledoh

Last week a 4 year old made fun of my "squeky baby voice and lisp". I couldn't really argue with someone nearly 20 years younger than me! CRINGE!!

My voice has been described as audible chocolate.
I especially like the sound of it after a heavy night. It adds a nice raspyness to it. Like that chocolate with cornflakes it in, Ritter or something. That's the texture of it.

I absolutely hate my voice,sounds too posh for a fella from Clondalkin.

People often tell me I have a lovely voice which I don't think I have ever said to anybody. When I hear it on tape I sound nothing like that in my own head and don't particularly like it.

+1!

Everyone else loves* my voice tho

When I say 'love' I mean 'tolerate'......actually when I say 'tolerate' I mean 'finds it slightly annoying'......when I say 'finds it slightly annoying' I mean 'hate'....with a passion :pac:

candy-gal1

Well I sound like a child when i speak, esp on the phone apparrantly :rolleyes: but starting kind of like it now

Paddy Cow

Same as most people. I like it in my head but when I hear it recorded I sound totally different. Much like when I'm singing karaoke

Karona

My voice doesnt really bother me, although people can never tell where I'm from. Makes me chuckle. :rolleyes:

KeithM89_old

I sound very like the boring priest from Father Ted, so no, no i dont

smokedeels

I wish I had a thicker accent and more of a drawl to my voice, as it is I sound very neutral.

I think I could better pull off not being able to sing if it had those qualities.

pappyodaniel

I love my voice because I.... am MATT BERRY!

El Horseboxo

Love it. It's a Dublin accent but i pronounce some words like how a Mexican-American would. I tend to drag out the end of sentences so i'm told.

Cashel Mc

I think its has something to do with your inner or outer ear the way you precieve your voice ,or it could be just wax or some sh*t in your ears?

Hazys

I was on a phone call for work yesterday with 1 guy from India and 1 guy from Trinidad.

For some reason the guy from India couldnt make out who was talking, he kept confusing me with my Cork accent and other guy with a Trinidad accent :eek:


:cool: I like having a hybrid Cork-Afro Caribean accent :cool: Ya mon! whats the craic? like, ya langer!

HeisenbergBB

Like my voice in my head. Sounds ****e when i hear a recording. I'm also very loud which can get me into trouble at times

Alter-Ego

Buy a cheap Dictaphone in Argos and keep recording and listening to your voice over and over. You'll get used to your own voice and your diction will improve.
