Daphne had such a UNIQUE voice though. I'll have to reserve my judgement until the movie comes out though...

I'd say that Taye and Rosario are about equal

Tracie will be amazing. Rosario will be fine. I agree with k80, Daphne DID have a very unique voice; so unique, it took me 4 years to get to like. But I heard Rosario performing "Without You" the other day, and woof. Daphne fans will not be disappointed. Anthony was right, in the sense that she has that husky, off-the-street type of voice. It's unique, but also it's very soothing and different.
Yes, one of the things I loved most about Daphne in RENT was how unique her voice was. I admit, the first couple times hearing it, I just wasn't that into it but after listening to it again and again it really grew on me and now I love it. It just worked so well with the character and it was one of those things that you will remember forever.
I agree... I think Daphne's voice was the one that I had to get used to.
and I agree bsobw2... if you're talking about how famous they are... I think they're about equal.

same here. at first, i wasn't really that into Daphne's voice but as i listened to it over and over again, it sorta grew on me and i began to like it (like Adam Pascal's hair. hehehe). but i'm also curious to kno how Tracie will sound like. i'm so excited to see this movie!

I was reading the New Yorker yesterday and there's a short little blurb on the filming that went on this past week. I found it very interesting that they billed the movie as RENT (starring Rosario Dawson and Taye Diggs).
