The guy that comes to mind immediately is Gavin Creel <33 One of the smoothest, purest voices I've ever heard. It's like butter!
And even though she doesn't necessarily have the BEST voice ever, Lea Michelle's voice is really really gorgeous and pure, so she gets my vote as well :)
I don't need a life that's normal. That's way too far away. But something next to normal would be okay. Something next to normal is what I'd like to try. Close enough to normal to get by.

Posted: 4/30/08 at 5:47pmAs far as female singers go, in my opinion, it is Streisand hands down. I am not a major fan of hers, but her voice is about as perfect as it gets. JMO

John Denver - I think had one of the purest voices
Ella Fitzgerald also comes close. A real bel canto voice.
Barbara Cook
I think it's hard to define. For example, Mandy Patinkin has a pure sound, but what he does with the sound is far from perfect. Julie Andrews had a beautiful soprano but early in her career she became lazy and lapsed into sing-speak.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Mara Davi, Megan McGinnis, Jason Danieley, Gavin Creel (and the obvious Julie Andrews).
Not "perfect," but they have that clear, pure sound.
