If you could wake up tomorrow with a specific singer’s voice, whose would you choose and why?

Inspired by another thread, mine would be Karen Carpenter.

Karen Carpenter’s voice was so pure.

Mine would be Annie Lennox, suits my personality.

Nopenott0day · 20/10/2025 19:34

Oli Sykes or Lizzie hale

Hottchoc · 20/10/2025 19:34

Demi lovato and Lea Michelle come to mind

Columbidae · 20/10/2025 19:34

Eva Cassidy. Clear as a bell.

Dearg · 20/10/2025 19:35

Annie Lennox. We share an accent, and her voice is so pure.

dizzydizzydizzy · 20/10/2025 19:35

Oh I'd settle for Adele, Karen Carpenter, Carly. Simon or one of the ABBA ladies.

CoffeeCantata · 20/10/2025 19:35

Some great suggestions here but the most stunning voice I’ve heard recently was the actress who played Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown. Sorry I can’t name her…will google.

Greendiamondbee · 20/10/2025 19:37

Doris Day, I'd love to be a Christmas crooner.

DoYouReally · 20/10/2025 19:38

Anyone who can even hold half a note.

I'm tone deaf but have always wanted to sign.

Honey G

Nellieinthebarn · 20/10/2025 19:39

I came on to say Karen Carpenter, but as she is already taken, I think l'd go for Mama Cass.

MadameMaxGoesler · 20/10/2025 19:40

Joan Sutherland, Lucy Crowe, Lisette Oropesa or Debbie Harry.

Whentosayitsover · 20/10/2025 19:41

Think I’d have fun with Christina Aguilera’s voice.

ReignOfError · 20/10/2025 19:42

I came to say Cass Elliot, but as she’s taken, I’ll choose Linda Ronstadt’s.

Cocolapew · 20/10/2025 19:42

Debbie Harry or Mavis Staples
Male, Marvin Gaye or Smokey Robinson

GenerousGardener · 20/10/2025 19:43

Kate Bush

sweetpeaorchestra · 20/10/2025 19:43

Etta James or Sarah Vaughan. I’d rather sound like myself than Karen Carpenter! Never liked her voice

SpottyAardvark · 20/10/2025 19:45

Luciano Pavarotti. How a mere human being could make such a magical noise is incomprehensible to me, so I would love to find out. Vineceeeero!!

menopausalfart · 20/10/2025 19:46

I would love the vocal skills and writing ability of Kate Bush.

menopausalfart · 20/10/2025 19:46

If opera, then it can only be Callas.

PinkyFlamingo · 20/10/2025 19:47

Alison Moyet

billysboy · 20/10/2025 19:49

frank sinatra or Johnny cash
Emilie sandie

outofdate · 20/10/2025 19:50

Lea Salonga - Amazing in Miss Saigon

Thedogscollar · 20/10/2025 19:50

Raye. She's unbelievable.
