Posted: 12/10/05 at 10:00pmHeather Headley's voice is very interesting, almost ambiguous.

The thread is about distinctive singing voices. Not singing voices you like to here.
Wouldn't the voices of people we like to hear be more distinctive to us than voices of other people we've never heard before, or don't listen to as much?

Posted: 12/10/05 at 10:19pmHow about Micheal Crawford?
#32re: Distinct Broadway Voices?
Posted: 12/10/05 at 10:19pmI think Sherie has an INCREDIBLY distinct voice. Anthony Rapp as well. Shoshana's I could probably point out...and Linda Eder's I could point out. Sutton Foster's is also very unique.

AHHHHH!
Sarah Brightman voice is certainly distinct. But wow, it is so annoying. And it has only gotten worse for any of you who saw the ALW Birthday celebration

Just my opinion, but Sarah Brightman sounds like every other shreiky soprano.
Some more I forgot:
-Dorothy Loudon
-Christine Andreas
-Alix Korey
-Lillias White
-Madeline Kahn

Posted: 12/10/05 at 10:55pmI am not too find of Sarah Brightman..at all. Bleck.
#38re: Distinct Broadway Voices?
Posted: 12/10/05 at 11:07pmLOVE Sarah Brightman, but I know I'm in the miniority there. I would say Julie Andrews, I don't think she has been mentioned. I don't know if its so much unique as just very recognizable for me. And also Joel Grey is pretty unique. I agree w/ Fierstein, Channing, Peters, Streisand, Merman, Kitt, Lupone, Chenoweth, Brightman and Lane.

Posted: 12/10/05 at 11:24pmi cant believe no ones mentioned Julie Andrews --- and yea i agree with everyone else on most people.
