Basses areI'm not one, and neither is Yoshimitsu, I'm just wondering what y'all think, because I think they are totally cool. |

I find that a bass's voice is much more masculine than a tenor's. I love a good tenor, but I will swoon for a great bass. | ||||||

I love basses. My boyfriend is a baritone bordering on bass and I'd rather hear him sing than a tenor anyday. | ||||||

I live with a pretty great bass-baritone. | ||||||

I don't care what a guy's voice part is... if he can sing well, he's already scored points with me. If I had to choose, I'd pick a lower-Tenor. mmmmm | ||||||

You have no idea how envious I am right now!

I'm a lower tenor who sings badly. Halfway there. Des. |

| LoneWanderer |
Hm? Lower tenor without a G? I dunno, maybe you have a tenor voice quality in which case that would make you a lower tenor but if you ask me it sounds more like you're a baritone. I'm a big fan of high baritones...or rather...I am a high baritone so I like to think they are the best voice type  .

I'm partial to all vocal ranges in the proper form. However, having a bass for a twin has definitely softened me to them...but powerful baritones remain my weakness. | ||||||

Back when we did LesMiz, there was something about the way the guy who played Javert sang...He was a baritone/bass...Ah man...His voice would send me and my best friend into orgasms every time. | ||||||
| Eponine Girl |
Oh no, I'm talking basses whose voices sound like a bass guitar....i.e. Tim Storms, Roger Kurt, Viktor Wichniakov. | ||||||
| EponineGiry |
I said manly-and-turn-me-on because by far the hottest guy in our choir is a bass and our tenors suck. And the rumbliness is sexy. Okay?! | ||||||

Type...I still don't know what the hell I am, hehe. Well, one thing for sure, I'm no bass. I have a deep voice but I highly doubt it would be considered a bass range.Why don't some of you post short clips, or something, along with your voice type? I bet half of you are going to claim one thing but really be considered something else, haha! Well, I shouldn't talk, I don't even know what I am.

As well you should be. He's super-fab. |

Re: Type...
Well, some true basses only go to like D2, which even some tenors can hit! But it is very dark and resonant from a true bass, although not necessarily much lower than anyone else. Most can go into the contra octave though, without just grumbling (I'm not talking Bass-Baritone or Lyric Bass) "Profondo" is what I mean by true bass. If you are 5'5", it's unlikely to have long vocal chords and be short. I know we've been over this before hwo there are exceptions aplenty, the onyl true bass I know in person is 5'6", but most of the time they are tall to ahve long vocal chords. I think you should post a clip, I'm so interested! |

Basses make me hot in the pants. | ||||||

When I was a teenager, I used to sing bass in the church choir. I'm really a baritone, so in church choirs I can usually sing either tenor or bass, as long as it's not TOO high or TOO low.
Anyway, I always used to sit next to this big black guy -- Lonnie Stanford, a Navy man. He had the lowest voice I've ever heard. While I was singing the bass part as written, he's sing it an octave down. It was amazing. |
||||||

I totally love that shit. I used sit in front of a bass who did the same thing, then the choir dude told him to sing it in the right octave so he stopped singing all together, and I got moved to another section. His voice reminded me if you mixed Darth Vader with the low notes of an organ. |

one of my best friend is a bass and I love it, he sounds really cool | ||||||
| dcrowley |
Being a bass/baritone myself, I like a deeper, richer voice. | ||||||
| Che |
there's little hotter than a GROUP of men singing...especially really low.  )

heres your State Bass right here with a low C flat...
I love being a bass...nothing makes me feel better than to watch an audience stop talking and turn their heads all the way around with wide eyes giving me the "OMG!!!" look when i hit my bottom notes... Basses are sexy... Barry White anyone?...bottom line...no one has sex to tenors... the girl im dating right now (stage manager) actually asked me out cuz she like my singing... "I love how you go so low, i get so freaked out over guys that can do that!!!" |

I shouldn't speak for all tenors, but....when I sing, the audience doesn't get bored enough to turn around and start talking amongst themselves in the first place.

| Che |
lol i love it! oh and no one has sex to tenors??? so wrong. i have sex to *countertenors.* lol love all che |
||||||
| Lepitot |
I've always liked tenor voices best. That might be because they get all the musical parts lol. I'm a bariton myself, Low E to High F. I wish I was a tenor, although it's pretty cool getting all the low notes too. | ||||||

BASS PRIDE! | ||||||
| AllThatJazzHands |
My philosophy is that if you can move me with your voice, you are pretty much awesome! I enjoy all male voice types...except maybe little kids'. I cringe at the thought of "Gary, Indiana". | ||||||
| pinkstiletto510 |
i like to think of it this way...
i'd marry a tenor...but i'd have a steamy affair with a bass-baritone
|
||||||
| theatrefanatic |
I'm a bari-bass. It's pretty awesome. Just dropping down an octive and shaking the floor in Warm ups makes my life worth living. And I'm tired of freakin Tenors acting like they own the whole world just because they can sing an A and you can't!  
|
||||||
| Lepitot |
Haha, I completely agree. Although, I would LOVE to be a tenor. They get all the fun parts in choir music, and they get to sing awesome love songs that are waaay out of my range. But, it's fun singing really low and impressing everyone lol. |

I'm pretty sure he's a tenor:

You revived a thread from two years ago to say that? |
||||||
| Beagle On Stage |
Oh, we can do that, too. You just have to crank our mics up to nine. |
||||||
| master0rolando |
i meant like during a dinner show when theyre all eating and stuff...or whenever we perform at the mall... its not the whole thing that theyre paying attention...its that they cant not pay attention |
||||||

Just when I thought no one could be more narcissistic than I am. |
