ok everyone has one but to narrow it down think of Hammy's face when he sniffed those nachos.

OK - Capt Beefheart, Diamanda Galas and Yoko Ono...that's on...er, three.


Hammy?? Nachos? Hmmm, cultural reference...depends whether he's anorexic or bulimic I guess.

oops. my perception of reality is not 100%. nor my engrish. i meant voice that had the same effect to you like those cheese flavoured nachos to Hammy - "Over the Hedge" edit: "What is THAT!?!"

i heard a "genderless" voice from greek male singer on some old LP but didnt have nesseserry means to copy it then and forgot that name shortly after.. and some gypsy singers have a rather interesting voices.

i asked that question cause i was browsing through amazon and didnt find anything yet that matched the criteria on 1st post...

Slim Whitman? Yma Sumac? I haven't seen Over The Hedge so I have no point of reference.

 

[Debaser86]

Mark E. Smith
David Thomas
Keiji Haino

I'm not sure about the reference, but IMO some unique voices are:

Tom Waits
Joanna Newsom

Radically different from each other but truly unique

 

[Duggeh]

Yma Sumac (arguably the greatest voice in singing history, an unparalleled vocal range)
Brad Roberts (gravelly sexual rumbling baritone, lead singer of the crash test dummies)
Leon Redbone (you woudnt know he was white unless you looked at the cd inlays, drawling jazz singer, responsible for the greatest christmas songs album there is)
Jeffrey Jey [born Gianfranco Randone] (almost always sings through vocoders of some kind. His natural singing voice is somewhat like Robbie Williams actually.

Those 4 are suitably disparate.

 

[Rock&Roll Ninja]

Uh, Bjork?

 

[roadtonowhere08]

Geddy Lee of Rush. Worked perfectly for the band.

nina simone

 

[Zayeem]

Willie Nelson

 

[MetalManCPA]

Tiny Tim

just listen to "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" - ugh

 

[blessingx]

Tom Waits. Also this guy has a unique voice.

 

[judas391]

William Hung

 

[Pibborando]

Jeff Mangum of Neutral Milk Hotel.
Alison Goldfrapp.
Karin Dreijer Andersson of The Knife.
