RE: Three-Tune Tuesday: Gravel Voice

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Gravel isn't something I thought too much about before, there does seem to be a trend for woman's voices to become more deeper, would that class as gravel? I think Amy Whitehouse was quite deep, Anastacia, even Cher could hit those deep tones too I remember!

Not deep, but scratchy. There's few of them about and they are very distinctive once heard, but not always in a good way. Rod is a fine example, listen to the warbling scratchiness in 'In a Broken Dream'.

Those other women you mention are clear-voiced, though distinctive, especially Amy.

I can sense some scratchiness in this Rod song, I'm not so smart though, I hadn't thought about him having a scratchy voice. I guess his voice is so recognisable like you mentioned though. I need to train my ears some more.
