Sexiest voices in music

Lætitia Sadier from Stereolab.

Not sure if mbv's Bilinda Butcher has a sexy voice, or a calming angel of death voice.

Howj Begg

Linda Ronstadt, but she possibly has the most beautiful voice, so I'm not sure.

Bazooka

Yukimi Nagano of Little Dragon.

phantom_power

Miho Hatori from Cibo Matto

Chris Isaak. I'm not gay but I would definitely consider fucking him if he sung to me like he does in Wicked Game


Kate Bush in "Morning Fog" and then in "Moments of Pleasure"

Also, Kim Wilde's voice in "Kids in America" made a young ChippedandBattered feel some funny things when it was released. I think it's the mucousy nasalness of it all.

I'm going to have to disagree.  Plus her ditzy mewl is a bad fit for a lot of songs; have you heard the way she messes about with What Is This Thing Called Love?  Abominable.  The Bardot version of Je t'aime moi non Plus trounces the Birkin one.  In fact, Bardot the singer in this thread all day over Birkin.

Jane Birkin singing in French is infinitely preferable to her singing in English, I find. I do agree with you about the Bardot version of Je t'aime moi non Plus being superior though. It's a better track all round.

Lucinda Slim/Nia Saw as well, she's only had one self-released album but she's done a load of backing work I think.

Victoria Legrand from Beach House

Grimes

JuJu / Kiss in the Dreamhouse-era Siouxsie.

Have you ever been able to wank and cum to just a sexy voice?

Etta James singing WOMAN is one of the sexiest things ever, especially this version -

Small Man Big Horse

Surprised Sarah Nixey of Black Box Recorder fame hasn't been mentioned yet, with The Art of Driving giving me the horn when I was young: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mm_W4r0Fw5g

Also Kenickie, but then I always have had a thing for northerners.

Ah yeah, Etta was great.

Mary Weiss hasn't been mentioned yet either. Nor P.P. Arnold.

Also a shout goes out to 'all of birtha'

Doris Duke is great as well but I'm not sure it's sexy given how bleak most her songs are.

I quite like her in her late thirties, slightly drunk and sweaty in a late night environment:

I'm mostly aware of her Muscle Shoals stuff because I'm a massive fame/swampers/etc fanboy.

Thanks to that American Epic documentary I'm going to add Rhiannon Giddens to this.
