Sexiest male voices?

[Patiod]

I've always been a sucker for a great masculine voice.

My two all-time favorites are Alan Rickman and Sam Elliott (Best comment about Sam Elliot ever, from someone on a Salon thread many years ago: "He wouldn't even have to be there, he could just talk me though it")

Your nominations?

[BOSSHOG]

1. I don't know about Sexy but I do like to hear Sean Connery chit chat

in his movies. And any movie with him in it is a chick flick to my wife.

[Patiod]

6. Anymore, I expect to hear him insulting Alex Trebek

SNL has ruined him for me

[BOSSHOG]

10. Ruined who?

trebek or Connery? While I love SNL (especially circa 75-77) I've yet to find a venue which has ruined Sean Connery in any sense of ruin!

[Left Is Write]

2. I totally agree about Sam. Also, Kevin Spacey, William Hurt, and Adrian Paul.

[terrya]

3. James Earl Jones, of course.

[applegrove]

16. Of course. Did I just hear him on CNN? Or was that a long lost echo?

[Shine]

4. MrShine and John Cusack

it doesn't hurt that they look alike, too. :loveya:

[ceile]

5. George Clooney or Colin Firth n/t

[Patiod]

7. Yeah, how fair is it that Mr. Clooney has that voice with that face?

Men should only be allowed one or the other - both is lethal.

[Seashell Eyes]

8. definitely Alan Rickman

I could listen to him read shopping lists. :)

[supernova]

9. Sean Bean

OMG! That voice could melt my pants right off. :loveya:


Besides Acting, he does a lot of narrations for documentaries and commercials

Here he is reading a Children's King Aurthur in a delish RP:

Here's his natural Yorkshirese:

[BarenakedLady]

11. No one famous

But :loveya: :9 deep, southern, masculine, bass so you feel it in the soles of your feet. He could read me the back of a cereal box and I'd die a happy gal.

[SPKrazy]

13. hmmm

sounds interesting, y'all know what I mean ;)

[Inchworm]

15. Your puppet should look like this when completed...

Inchworm reads to BNL in a deep southern voice...

"To assemble cut out puppet along outside black line. Gently break all perforated slots. Fold down on all black dotted lines. Insert each tab into slot with same letter. See small illustration. To operate place thumb in lower jaw pocket and fingers in upper. Move fingers to open and close mouth."

I hope it was as good for you as it was for me! :loveya:

:hi:

[TOhioLiberal]

12. It's gotta be...

...Keith Olbermann.

[mentalsolstice]

14. My husband's

I know that sounds corny...but he has a partially paralyzed larynx, so his voice is hoarse, but not so much that it's distracting. I guess you could say that it's softly deep.

[sarge43]

17. Gregory Peck - classic

Jeremy Irons

[Patiod]

32. We were watching something last night with Jeremy Irons in it

and I thought "should have added him to the list". His best line ever, as Sunny Bulow: "You have no idea."

He had a small part in Ken Burns' "The Civil War"

[sarge43]

36. "You have no idea."

So good that he had to do it again in Lion King. :)

[momophile]

46. Gregory Peck....yummy.... nt

[sarge43]

48. And very easy on the eyes, too. Yummers. n/t

[Manifestor_of_Light]

18. Richard Burton, Orson Welles, Burgess Meredith.

[Bjornsdotter]

19. Alan Rickman

...his voice goes straight to my naughty bits.

Cheers

[JTG of the PRB]

20. George Takei.

My friend and I might have some sort of man crush on him, since we constantly imitate him and talk about what sketches he would be in when we have the TV show we don't yet have.

[MrScorpio]

21. I'm surprised no one picked me yet

I must be slacking off

[CaliforniaPeggy]

22. ....

:9

[SeattleGirl]

26. I think so too, Peggy!

:9

[Left Is Write]

40. Well...of course your vocal sexiness goes without saying!

[PassingFair]

23. Thom Hartmann has been doing it for me lately.....

It's the CONTENT, darn it!

[Patiod]

33. Thom Hartmann does have a great voice

And then he does the Purina commercials where he imitates his cat.

[cynatnite]

24. Sean Connery...excellent sexy voice n/t

[Bennyboy]

25. According to my ex-wife

John Bell from Widespread Panic.

[EFerrari]

27. Louis. Bar none. Then, now and forever.

[KT2000]

28. Clive Owen and Sean Connery

:blush:

[KT2000]

29. and of course Robert Mitchum

[Love Bug]

30. Jeremy Brett

Those precise Etonish tones, rolling his Rs, ..... grrrrowl!

[Dragonbreathp9d]

31. The only man I would go gay for: Antonio Bandaeras

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Wiccan Warrior]

34. Sean Connery.....no doubt...n/t

[TZ]

35. Well George Clooney is great...

but I have to say, I am a bit of a sucker for not a specific person so much as a generic accent...I think Australian accents are sooooo sexy. So I guess I would say..Paul Hogan (hes not too bad looking either)

[Mad_Dem_X]

37. Kevin Spacey. Gabriel Byrne.

One of the reasons I love "The Usual Suspects" so much.

[Patiod]

44. Oooo -- two excellent choices

So I modify my list:
Sam Elliott, Alan Rickman, Jeremy Irons, Keven Spacey, and Gabriel Byrne

[Mad_Dem_X]

49. Oooh, I forgot Jeremy Irons!

He's definitely on my list!

[CBHagman]

38. Don't forget James Mason.

Another Yorkshireman.

[GirlinContempt]

39. Alan Rickman is good, so is Ciarán Hinds

[China_cat]

41. I can't believe no one said Patrick Stewart

[davsand]

42. Barry White.

All he'd have needed to say would have been "Ohhhhh, Baby, Baby take off your pants" and I think a lot of women would have been ready on the spot.




Laura

[Connonym]

43. OedipusRex eom

[Oeditpus Rex]

51. ...

:loveya:

[lizziegrace]

61. I second that

:)

[momophile]

45. I could listen to John Edwards talk forever nt

[momophile]

47. I agree with Alan Rickman - mmm... Snape... nt

[Myrina]

50. JEREMY IRONS

oh. be still my heart. :loveya:

[Throd]

52. Frank Zappa

[Elidor]

53. I just came in here to say Alan Rickman!

It's not so much his voice. It's his delivery. I especially love him as Snape. He infuses the simplest lines with such sneering condescension that I have to hear them again and again.

[Patiod]

59. Oh, you are so late with that nomination

he was in my Top Two. His voice is also wonderful in Truly, Madly, Deeply

[sakabatou]

54. Steve Blum

and according to my gf, me. :D

[Jade Fox]

55. Russell Crowe......

It's my theory that a good chunk of Crowe's success is because of his voice. He's certainly not much to look at.

[Misskittycat]

56. Richard Armitage; Brit actor. Check him out currently on BBC America

in Robin Hood. He plays Sir Guy of Gisbourne; drop dead sexy. He also starred a few years ago in BBC's North and South.

[nytemare]

57. I'll see you Alan Rickman, and raise you Tim Curry.

His voice emits pheromones, even though, technically, voices don't do that. His voice is just that sexy.

[SarahB]

58. Peter Jackson

He's not too pretty, but I love his voice. I'm not sure why.

[Akoto]

60. Patrick Stewart.

That man can recite Shakespeare like nobody's business, and he even makes photon torpedoes sound epic.
