If you could sing like anyone, who would it be? Who gets you lip syncing into the hair brush or long necked beer bottle? Do tell... |

Great question!  If you ask me tomorrow I'll likely have a different answer lol. If the long neck bottles are full likely to be like Van Morrison but as they empty something closer to Jimmy Barnes. lol "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |

Bjork. I can sing a bit...have to be in a 'song'... frame of something lol...to sound really good, but if I could sing professionally it'd be like Bjork for sure...her voice - wow... what can one say? Who wants to sound like all the rest? The wind shifts like this: Like a human without illusions... This is how the wind shifts: Like a human, heavy and heavy, Who does not care. W.S |

So Eagleone--we can count on you for the vocals to "brown-eyed girl"? Great!!! You're hired... and K...not only is Bjork a great vocal talent, she also is quite the actress, AND has a mean right hook....and she manages to stay "cute" the whole time. GOTTA RESPECT THAT. ROFL...while keeping my left guard up. |

Celine Dion and Sarah McLachan I can not sing at ALL, but it has always been a dream to be able to do so, and yes these two are my very very favorite singers, mostly because of what these songs are about, but also thier voices, they do sing beautifully. Love, cerenity |

LOREENA McKENNITT Um ... and Jewel, Cranberries, Corrs, and just about every other female vocalist in my collection ... and every once in a while when I'm feeling manly I'll do some Sting or Live ... And for those goofy occasions, there's always the Dead Milkmen!  Oh, and serenity -- I DON'T sing into hairbrushes or beer bottles, thankyouverymuch ... I HAVE A PLAYSKOOL MICROPHONE!

This may seem strange from someone as young as I am, however--- Bing Crosby or Dean Martin.. on the more current side- Rod Stewart or Vince Gill Jamie Tu ne cede malis, sed contra audentior ito. - Virgil. "Yield thou not to adversity, but press on the more bravely". |

Sarah McLachlan, Jewel, or Martina McBride. But, *sigh*, I'll just have to sound like lil ol me I suppose...*Krista Knutson* "One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar." Helen Keller |

I love to sing...therefore, sing just about every song!! but if I had to choose someone, I would say...Mariah Carey (range),Sarah Mclauglin(beauty),or faith hill(outright lovely voice) I guess, for now, until I kill one of them, and somehow format my voice similar to one of theirs I'll have to settle for my own 1st place in state voice...no one here's bragging...  really I'm not...just proud, right?*Being an angel doesn't mean having a halo or wings, it means doing the right thing and wanting to make a difference* |

Serenity, OBVIOUSLY you've never heard me sing. Why would I want to sound like anything but perfection? ~bats eyes~ Gosh, SO many... Uhm, as far as range and $$$notes (those endless high-hitting things that can bust speakers?): Celine Dion (crickey, she's got lungs... just wish she could find a few decent songs to sing) A simply beautiful, unique voice: Dayna Manning or Sarah Bettens (K's Choice) A package of beautiful, unique voice and amazing conveyance of emotion: Natalie Merchant (oh, doesn't she have the coolest voice???) An overall package of emotional power, range, and just plain goose-bump beauty: Tori Amos... I mean, WOW. Great question, btw.  ~ Beth [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Cor (edited 11-11-2000).] |

I'd like to sing like Billy Corgan, lead singer of the Smashing Pumpkins. I'd also like to have his mind and his writing skills.  I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. I hate your socks. I'd like to burn them! |

Stevie Nicks. I love her voice! Now, if I were a guy, I'd say Rod Stewart! Love his voice too! Denise |

Denise.... You don't have to be a guy to sing songs that guys do...all you have to do is love the songs. There are very few female singers I love to sing to cuz I have such a horrible voice...can't reach a lot of those high notes without squeaking. Easier for me to sing a lot of the songs I love by guys. So go ahead and be Rod Stewart for a song or two. His hairdo is easy to copy, too! mia< !signature--> ...got to be somewhere better than in the middle...~Wallflowers [This message has been edited by miapoetess (edited 11-11-2000).] |

When I have a head cold I sound like Janis Joplin....I'd like to sound like Alana Miles. If I were a guy I'd like to sound like Donovan (thanks for the memories Walt) or rock it like Billy Idol. How can you save me? When the dark comes right in and takes me, from my front walk and into bed, where it kisses my face and eats my head. Shivaree |

Natalie Merchant is grand, along with almost every single other female artist (and somme men) that ya'll named, but I would have to choose between Shirley Manson or Fiona Apple. If something inspires you, write about it. If something inspires you but is pure inspiration, do not write about it, for that shall taint it -- |

 serenity, I hope you mean uhm that uhm you can have a great reverberating effect out of anything if you move it back and forth. Oh! My virgin ears! Or, if it was innocenct… Oh! My gutter mind! What I was originally going to ask: The shower song? Is that the real title? Are you talking about “Your House” … is THAT the real title??? Anyway, if you’re talking about the song with the “dance in your shower” line… I sing that in the shower all the time. What IS the correct name of that darn song? Anyway, the point was that I like it too… sheesh. ~beth confused again [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Cor (edited 11-12-2000).] |

I thought of another I'd like to sound like - Keith Whitley. Not only sound like, but write like - that man had a talent. |

depends on my mood. (and whether or not myroommates are home- we have really thin walls) but i must agree with some of you. first of all with dopey. billy corgan is my idol. i cried when they broke up. and anyone who said natalie merchant... but mostly when she sang for 10,000 Maniacs. Our Ttime in Eden is the best. And Adam Duritz. Wow. Anna Begins, Sycamore Street, Amy Hit the Atmosphere... Hey, my roomies aren't home. I'm going to go listen to Counting Crows....! |
