practice it, she did. she exaggerated that voice. i used to work with her in los angeles and thought she was a regular black girl until she was in the movie do the right thing. then all of a sudden she had this "accent".

Yep. Its unusually annoying and thick. That's what I like about it.

I'd also like Sia's voice(australlian Singer),Norah Jones and Shirley Bassey's voice.

I notice she doesn't sound like that in interviews. I recently saw her in a documentary called Brooklyn Boheme, there was no annoying accent.

I read this thread and originally commented without answering the question because it sort of hits a nerve down in my heart.

I would like my voice, the one I had before a decade's use of asthma inhalers affected my vocal cords. Sometimes, I love my voice, and it will do exactly what I want it to do; other times, nope, not happening. It cracks and wavers and slides off key like a drunken trombone player. But when it's good, it's great. But it's not strong enough to last for more than a few songs, if that.

I always sang 1st soprano in chorus back in school because I could hit the really high notes, but my love is the low, throaty notes that sometimes roll out like liquid silk, sultry, seductive, and soul-full. My son loves for me to sing to him. We sing everything from gospel to hard rock to nursery rhymes. When we belt out Peace like a River, I know what happiness is right then, right there.
