(i)How do you rate your voice? Do you consider it sweet, melodious, enchanting, mesmerising, impressive, childish etc.. What different kind of opinion/compliments do you receive from your near and dear ones about your voice?
(ii) When you talk to someone what kind of voice makes an impression on you......sweet, melodious, coasrse, heavy etc.?
I would like to share your thoughts on the above.
Thanks in advance.

It's pretty hard to tell what your voice sounds like. All you can rely on are feedback from other people. Amazing enough there is no true consensus among their comments. Opinions about my voice have range from sweet, charming, and sexy to shrill, monotone and squeaky. I guess just as beauty lies in the beholder, a voice loveliness lies in the hearer.
Seriously though I think I have a decent sounding voice, albeit on a weak side. I do not have the powerful booming voice of an orator, something I have always envied others who possessed such a quality, because I enjoy public speaking. On the other hand, I have a pleasant voice because I talk to people on the phone all day as part of my job and I have received numerous compliments about my voice. However, if there is one thing that I do not like is my singing voice. For the life of me, I cannot carry a tune. This has always embarassed me, especially during occassions where singing is involved. Still as I grow more mature in my years, I realized that my voice, just like anything about me, is part of who I am. I learned to be grateful of my power of speech, never mind the kind of voice I employ.

wayz12, I am thrilled and delighted to read your response. I would say one thing - the newer and inexperienced members should learn from your response, should take a leaf from your response..................how to describe yourself, how to narrate the matter, how beautifully one should post a reply to an ordinary looking discussion.
Full marks to you. Whenever you have responded to my discussions, you put in your the best efforts, and made the reply simply outstanding. Each and every reply you posted in response to my discussion was Undoubtedly excellent. Belive me, I am not exaggerating.
I have become your greatest fan.
How beautifully you have written - as the beauty lies in the eyes of beholder, a voice's lovliness lies in the hearer'. I agree with you that it is difficult to rate your own voice, you would have to depend upon feedback from others. You say you have received compliments for yor voice from many. It is great!
I would love to hear your voice one day, If I could.
Don't worry there is difference between having sweet voice and having a voice of a singer. A singer may not speak as beautifully as you do.
Saying 'Thanks' to you would be too small compliment for posting your response. So BIG THANKS for wonderful and wonderful response.
Hope to see more quality responses from you like this.

'you have a sensuous voice'
'you have intriguing voice'....
that's what i would love to hear, but sorry dear, only good compliment i managed is ' your voice is ver innocent'. i talk very less, obviously i am very shy, my voice is kinda soft, husky and not very ringing. ppl usually recognise my voice instantly, for they say its different. i have tried to listen to my voice by recording songs, but it sounded very different from what my friends told me!! i am not sure about my voice and trust me that is the only thing about me that i am not that sure of.
before posting, i must congratulate you for a unique discussions. i haven't had such a discussion in myLot as yet.
thank you

Mimpi, first of all a very BIG THNAKs for congratulating me to start a discussion on an unusal topic, it is my pleasure.
Why do you think that having a sensous or intriguing voice, should only get good comments.
You see even husky or soft voice can also be attractive or impressive, you will agree it depends how politely and nicely you are speaking to other person. If you are speaking with a soft or husky voice or both, if your manner of speaking is good, you will surely get positive response. Sweet and charming voice with nice style and narration surely adds charm to any conversation.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Hi dpk, really nice discussion.
i. My voice is sweet, impressive but very strong it is more like a motivating voice for anybody. It is having a very high volume. Many of my friends tell that its very impressive but at times they will tell me to reduce my voice.
ii. My voice doesn't have any kind of fear, even when I would have done some mistake I will boldly accept it so its like an orator voice and its pleasant to hear when i speak little slowly.
Deepak, one small suggestion as you are eager to know how our voice is, we would also like to know about your voice. So, if you would have added your discussion it would have been really superb discussion.

Hi Deepak
Well I can say my voice is childish .. some people call it sweet but I found it childish. But sometimes I used to get surprising comments from people whom I don't know .. some used to say my voice is quite unique and it's hard to forget my voice. Well whatever my voice is -- I am proud of my voice and really feel happy that I have got so many comments till now for my voice .. and have never got any bad comment about it till now. When talking to people .. my voice is considered as a mixture of sweet + childish .. :) .. It's a nice discussion .. + rated :)

Preeti, thanks for writing.
I suppose that if your voice is called childish...you would definitely have child-like innocence in your voice. Child like voice...alwyas appear sweet and melodious.
Thanks for liking the discussion.
Hope to hear your child-like sweet voice one day hopefully....sooner than later............................
Deepak
Have a nice day!

My voice- you can call it sweet. Many persons or u can say almost every person whoesever talks to me always put a good comment for my voice. i don't know what is in it but sometimes when i get a wrong number and the people say that u have a good voice then i must agree that its a sweet one.
And my liking about voice is that i like a bit heavy and impressive voice like AMITABH BACHCHAN has.

Sahlini, thanks very much with coming out with your response. (I must also thank you for adding me in your list of friends).
It is nice to know that your voice is sweet and hope many people would get attracted towards you hearing your sweet voice. If I get an opportunity I would like to hear your sweet voice.
Thanks again for replying to part (ii) of my discussion, after going through all the replies and despite my requests no body attempted to reply to part (ii) of my discussion.
Incidentally, I also like heavy and impressive voice like Amitabh Bachchan, I am great fan of his and his voice.

I have a quiet voice, soft spoken (most of the time unless I'm annoyed/angry at something then it changes and becomes very firm, strong and loud). I don't think its enchanting or mesmerising nor childish but who knows, no-one has ever told me what they think about my voice other than that they can't hear me when I talk LOL.

I've always liked my voice. Not when I'm singing though. Sick cattle sounds better. LOL! My DH has said that I should be in radio. It's just a voice that carries well, and has a nice pitch to it--makes people listen. (I don't think my kids think so, they don't seem to hear it! LOL)
I like male voices that are deep. James Earl Jones has one of the best voices I've ever heard. It is so sexy and attractive to me. Almost gives me chills.
Female voices shouldn't be too high pitched--Gives me headaches. I like a low sound from women. Not to low, though becomes very masculine, and not appealing.
Great topic! It's been fun readingother peoples response. :)

My voice is kind of childish. When i was on the phone with my friend, they always said that my voice like a 16 year old kid..LOL. Even my mom's friend who never knew me and just met me, they always asked "Where did you go to school ?". I was laughed everytime i heard that, I already went to office..LOL. My looks and my voice are kids-alike for them.

I feel I should have used the appropriate word in my discussion, it should have been child-like, instead of childish. So if your voice is sweet and child-like, it would be really charming. You know voice of a child always appear very sweet.
I do not feel that you responses are childish. I have always receive logical responses from you in regard to my discussions.
