Truly talented.

Liam Neeson and Alan Rickman, for sure.
And Patrick Stewart.
I've also always loved listening to Rex Harrison, though he doesn't really sing. He kind of speaks-sings. But I like how he sounds :)

"We've thought of life by analogy with a journey, with pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end, and the THING was to get to that end; success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you're dead. But, we missed the point the whole way along; It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing, or dance, while the music was being played.

... gee... how'd I miss a voice discussion?

Great choices.  Hadn't thought about Alan Rickman or Peter Sellers, but, yeah - they're in the zone.

For women, I prefer a lower, even smokey voice.

And of course James Earle Jones.  He used to leave me voice mails when I worked at Verizon (true story ;-)

If anyone would like to hear a short snippet of their poetry by Patrick Stewart or Sean Connery, I'd be happy to oblige (I've voiced them both on past projects).

...

Eddie Deezen?
