Pelt me with rocks and garbage, but Bjork's vocal turns on "Joga" and "Bachelorette" are pretty fucking awe-inspiring.

― Amateurist (amateurist), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:15 (twenty-three years ago)

as are her yelps in "Pluto." actually, that whole album is pretty awe-inspiring.

hard to pick just one favourite for me, but Brendan Perry's voice in Dead Can Dance's rendition of "I Am Stretched On Your Grave" is nothing short of gorgeous.

for sheer giddy maniacal glee, i also love Barney Sumner's delivery of the vocal for "Face Up."

for sheer icy coolness, Sarah Cracknell's delivery on St. Etienne's cover of "Stormtrooper in Drag."

Shirley Bassey, "Goldfinger"

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:27 (twenty-three years ago)

I was only half-kidding re. Hollerin'.

Perhaps... Peggy Lee, "Don't Smoke in Bed"?

No: Connee Boswell on the Boswell Sisters' "It's Written All Over Your Face." Oh, Lord, search search search search sigh.

― Amateurist (amateurist), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:29 (twenty-three years ago)

But god, there are so many. Like Dang, I'm a voice-nerd, so maybe I'll do some real thought on this and compile a list.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:30 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, my choices were fairly arbitrary. I've mentioned elsewhere I think that I respond to the human voice above all else. This might as well be "Your Own Fucking Ten" as I'm concerned.

Peggy Lee is very hit-or-miss, but Connee Boswell was always, always ace. There will always be a place for her on any list I make.

― Amateurist (amateurist), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Jeff Buckley - "Last Goodbye"

― My name is Kenny (My name is Kenny), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:37 (twenty-three years ago)

Didn't mean to limit it to just one (as you can see from my initial picks) so let it be:

FAVORITE VOCAL PERFORMANCES

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:39 (twenty-three years ago)

Bjork: Birthday

― oops (Oops), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:40 (twenty-three years ago)

The Ronettes, "I Wish I Never Saw the Sunshine" (esp. for the transition from the slightly melismatic "everywhere I go" in the bridge to the "ohhhhh baby" leading into the final chorus -- Ronnie ducks down a step before attacking the "ohhhh" and then really lets it rip when she gets back up to the note).

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:47 (twenty-three years ago)

Tim Buckley "Sweet surrender"

― gaz (gaz), Thursday, 13 February 2003 22:59 (twenty-three years ago)

Linda Thompson, "Sweet Surrender"

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 13 February 2003 23:05 (twenty-three years ago)

Most of Diana Ross's performances w/Supremes.

I find that Bob Mould softly cooing '8 miles high' is bracing voice to wake up to on a cold dark Monday morning in Winter.

― panico (panico), Thursday, 13 February 2003 23:13 (twenty-three years ago)

The Staples Singers "Freedom Highway", "Will the Circle Be Unbroken", "Don't Knock", "John Brown"

Mighty Diamonds--"Why Me Black Brother Why" (although the singing throughout the Right Time album is beyond beautiful)

(good call on 'God Only Knows)

George Jones, "Mr. Fool" and "Will the Circle Be Unbroken"

― Amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 14 February 2003 00:01 (twenty-three years ago)

― Amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 14 February 2003 00:01 (twenty-three years ago)

Heptones--"Make Up Your Mind"

Yer gonna laugh, but Glenn Danzig's vocals on "Hybrid Moments" by the Misfits and the live version of "Sistinas" by Danzig are wa-hey hecka grand!

Stupendous vocal performances from the two CDs I got in the mail yesterday:

Susana Baca - "Maria Lando"

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 February 2003 00:04 (twenty-three years ago)

Labelle's backing vocals on Laura Nyro's Gonna Take a Miracle album -- oh, like I need to explain why.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 February 2003 00:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Christina Aguilera on "Beautiful" (the bridge, when her voice starts to get carried away on its own momentum and her high notes get really trebly and just a little in-the-red) (also the way the final few notes of the song collapse into something very easy and lovely -- "don't you bring me down" (pause) "ooooh" (and then without breaking the phrase or the breath she connects the "ooooh" to the "today," preserving the integrity of her final word by not overkilling it with frippery).

It's fucking AMAZING.

― Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 14 February 2003 00:25 (twenty-three years ago)

no it's not. It's cloying and unlistenable. Sorry, Jody.

Elmore James - Dust My Broom
There's just something that's *Damned* about the sound of his voice in that song. The entire song is actually about the most amazing sonic texture and atmosphere ever recorded by humankind.

Jody you are so OTM re. the LaBelle/Nyro record. Have you seen a first pressing of the LP? It had this ribbed cardboard sleeve which just adds to the loveliness of the cover design (nice font, eh?).

one year passes...

How about Phil Collins on "Easy Lover" -- that moment when he screams "You'll be down on your knees!" Imagine what this woman has done to him, how desperate a man cam become. Eyes closed, fist clenched, voice bubbling up from the very pit of his soul... We cann all agree that this is 100% pure, uncut, off-the-chain passion.

Hot Burrito #1 by Gram Parsons
Almost anything by Junior Byles

― Billy Pilgrim (Billy Pilgrim), Thursday, 29 September 2005 19:50 (twenty years ago)

Morrissey - You Know I Couldn't Last: hard-earned wisdom, resignation, coquettish woe-is-me-ism, exhaustion, and all that before the final falsetto section hits.

Bjork - All Is Full Of Love. Her voice rises so stealthily and steadily throughout the verse that when she finally jumps up a fifth to join the backing vocals in the chanting of the title, the song explodes - without moving a muscle.

Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit. The version where she coughs in the beginning. I don't even know what to say about this one.

Nirvana - When Did You Sleep Last Night. This is slightly corny, not to mention impacted by the teleological implications (like everything about Cobain) but the way he completely destroys the last two lines ("Pines -- Pines -- Sun -- Shine") destroys me with it.

― joseph cotten (joseph cotten), Thursday, 29 September 2005 20:01 (twenty years ago)

OTM about that Nirvana Unplugged performance.

re: Sinead O'Connor

"Good god, for such a skinny little elf, she's got quite the lungs."

agreed completely. my sister and i (who witnessed her live together and had much the same reaction as one another) used to wonder who'd win in a singing battle if you locked Sinead and Bjork in a room together. the sheer lungpower on the both of them! i don't think either of them really need microphones, quite honestly! O.O;;;

-- janni (jannyank...) (webmail), February 14th, 2003 7:10 PM. (janni) (link)

There's a whole thread on ILM about this somewhere! I shall attempt to find it.

― fandango (fandango), Thursday, 29 September 2005 20:11 (twenty years ago)

I can't believe nobody's mentioned Sinatra yet (unless I missed it)! I don't know if any other performer has ever quite gotten his ability to SELL a song while hitting all the right notes. No matter what character he's stepping into, you buy it 100%. The best has got to be "New York, New York" though - the way he builds from quiet, aw-shucks confidence with "Start spreadin' the news" up to the exalting joy in the fulfillment of all immigrant dreams on the final "New York!" - there are few finer moments in all of pop IMO.

His spiritual descendent is, of course, Paul McCartney, who's gotten a little bit of love in this thread, but not nearly enough...go listen to "Hey Jude" again, and let that first smooth, clear, gently forceful "Hey jude" sink in. Great stuff. Also his rockers ("I'm Down," the aforementioned "Got To Get You Into My Life")...

But my real personal favorite who gets not NEARLY enough credit is Kathleen Hanna in the Bikini Kill days. The one that really sends chills down my spine is "Jet Ski." "Ain't GOOOOOOOooooooooooOooOOT, no candy for you!" Love it, love it. The Julie Ruin record has some really good understated stuff, too - she does a good job of projecting vulnerability and ambiguity through a certain scratchy, weary tone. Fabulous.

― Doctor Casino, Thursday, 29 September 2005 20:35 (twenty years ago)

Noel Gallagher (The Chemical Brothers featuring Noel Gallagher) - Let Forever Be :-O

Now, he's got a fairly unlovely voice at the best of times but that surely ain't one of his best! God I hate his 'work' on those Chems records. It's the audio equivalent of a soggy dishrag dropped onto a piece of fresh crusty bread. UGH. His best probably would be the to/fro with his brother on 'Acquiesce' I think.

The parts of Stevie Wonder's "Living For the City" when he's bouncing that odd vocal harmony off the synth riff.

The last verse of this, when he switches to that low, growling, mean-Stevie voice, coupled with the harmonies in the chorus, is just an astounding, fucking towering performance.

― Keith C (lync0), Friday, 30 September 2005 04:28 (twenty years ago)

There should be some Ray Charles on this thread. "Hard Times," which has a massive contrast in style between the first two verses and the final verse (Charles Brown followed by Brotha Ray), is one of his best.

― Keith C (lync0), Friday, 30 September 2005 04:34 (twenty years ago)

Neko's a fount of fantastic vocal turns. I love the studio version of "Favorite", but on the live version she just holds the notes a little longer, for maybe half a second to a second, and she really nails something completely ineffable.

Jackie Wilson's "Doggin' Around"; I don't think anyone could go from belting to cooing so smoothly, plus it kinda sounds like he has a slight rasp from a cold that makes it all the more deep and buttery in some spots, marvelous song.

Tom Waits "Tango til They're Sore"

Correct, but it helps that he's singing some darn cool lyrics.

My personal choices would be

jarvis cocker - "wickerman" (there was a thread on this recently, and deservedly so)
andy partridge - "complicated game" (xtc's most underrated song, probably)
matt johnson - "out of the blue (into the fire)"
matt johnson - "shrunkenman"
beth gibbons - "half day closing" (i mean, like, duh)
andy falkous - "lightsaber cocksucking blues" or "you should be ashamed, seamus"
laurie anderson - "from the air" (why? because i've got eyes in the back of my head)
guy garvey - "newborn"
those two from blood brothers - "cecilia and the silhouette saloon"

― Just got offed, Saturday, 5 May 2007 19:45 (nineteen years ago)
