Warning: You will get a whole mess of mo fos who refuse to pick one of each. lol


Female: Deniece Williams


Male: Donny Hathaway

I have a tough time choosing between Dolly Parton and Deniece. Dolly's got a stronger set of songs (that much is not debatable for me), but today I feel like I'd give the slight edge to Deniece.

Uh.. "beautiful" is a strange term when coming to male voices. I never thought of it in those terms when coming to a male vocalist. Female, yeah. Minnie was the first to come to my brain. And then Denise. Although neither of them are my favorite female vocalists.

These two rate very high in my book.




...Little Jimmy Scott

Smooth as silk.





...Ella Fitzgerald (love Dizzy's expression)

Her voice never really roughed up as she aged.
Still sounded like a young girl in her later years.

I don't think it's weird to describe a male voice as beautiful. Maybe it's because I'm a woman and a male voice affects me in a different way than it affects you. Luther Vandross's voice, to take an example, is what I call beautiful. It send chills down my spine and makes me feel like I'm listening to an angel...

My vote for best female voice goes to: Whitney Houston.

Male: Hard to decide but Luther is one of the most soulful.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Nat King Cole.

The Compromise Theory:
Based on my analysis, I believe the government faked the plane crash and demolished the WTC North Tower with explosives.
The South Tower, in a simultaneous but unrelated plot was brought down by actual terrorists.
Is it a deal?

I know it is sad and quite stupid of me, but every time this name is brought up now, all that I can think about is that skit about the hypothetics of whether or not misogony had began way before the times of "Rap/Hip-Hop"!

"Rub it all over your breast and your vaginaaaah! Yes, yes! I'm horny, that looks good to meeeeeh! Peace Ya punk bitches! Come back next year so I could put a little egg nog on your face! *Raspberries & jerkoff Gestures*" lol sigh I miss that show. sad
