Power of voice



Lets be upfront and honest about something. Some of us have a thing for voices. Esp me. I’ve one helluva thing for deep, authoritative sounding voices. The kind that makes you just melt away while you listen and makes you really weak. What is talked doesn’t even have to make sense. You just want to listen.

There was a time I used to go for English recordings when a well known English voicing artist used to voice some of our commercials in the earlier work place. Some of you might know him – Shirash Matchado. He used to read news on one of the local channels too I think. That man has an asset of a voice that he makes a living from it too. I would just close my eyes and listen and let the creative guy just keep making him talk….

Then when I went for a client meeting last week, my knees felt so weak when I heard one of the guys speak. DQ was next to me and I immediately turned to her and said ‘Oh man, he has a great voice!’ and all she said was ‘oh no..’.

I do have a few guy friends who have amazing voices.

Then I realized that my Rugby love Daniel Carter (yes I’m in love with him) has a damn good voice too…. Now he’s got the total package, which is a bit too good to be true. But hey, nature does surprise us sometimes.

Here’s to voices! Great ones, that makes one’s heart flutter, ears listen, knees weak and end up with mind blowing reactions.


This also happens to be my 600th post! :-)

    Marc - I think you're stuck with what you're born with.. but with science these days, you never know what's possible and what's not..;) and well, voice training does help I think.. I'm not sure.
