VoOs Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Alright, people, who's brave enough to share the sound of their voice? If you are, make a recording of yourself answering these questions:1) What's your name and/or screen name?2) How old are you?3) Where are you from? Are you living there right now?4) What's the time?5) Is it cold where you are?6) What are you wearing?7) What was the last thing you listened to?8) What was the last thing you ate?9) What was the last thing you watched on TV?10) What's your favourite TV show? Why?11) Quick! Find a book, or something with text on it! Flip to a random page and read some of it! GO!12) What was the last movie you saw? How was it?13) Do YOU think you have an accent? Talk about that.I think a couple of members on the red forum did a meme similar to this one a few years back, and I would love to see hear some more participants. It's such a fun thing to know what people sound like. Voices, and accents, are wonderful things. <3Anyway, here's mine: http://www.mediafire...b4hcrmy8ea6knwgComplete with Swidish äccent and all.

Spoo Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Ah! VoOs! I love your accent. It's so pretty. Here's my contribution: http://vocaroo.com/i/s0MV2DdqCPxf I'd really love to encourage those of you overseas (and with accents) to participate in this! Link to comment
VoOs Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 Ah! VoOs! I love your accent. It's so pretty. Aww, thank you. <3And you! I was grinning like a dork through your entire recording. Your voice is incredibly cute. Link to comment
Marshmallow Peep Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Okay, well, here's mine: http://www.mediafire.com/?2o1qjakd4bb4gcqI'm sorry, it's long and I started babbling and going a bit off-topic from the questions on many occasions... and I probably sound like a chipmunk or something. My parakeets also decided to put their opinions in as well, so forgive me if their loud chirping gets irritating.Also a quick note: when I said what I ate, there's a part that might sound like "like a cat" or something, but I said "I like KitKats" (those chocolatey wafer... cookie-like things), just thought I'd make things clear.

Joal 555 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I'd really love to encourage those of you overseas (and with accents) to participate in this!I haven't been able to listen to everybody's (IT issues) but Spoo, just wanted to say, you have a really lovely voice and accent If I had more IT skills (and a little more courage ) I could be tempted to do one......

Spoo Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 And you! I was grinning like a dork through your entire recording. Your voice is incredibly cute. Ohjeez, really? I think I sound really obnoxious most of the time. But thank you. I haven't been able to listen to everybody's (IT issues) but Spoo, just wanted to say, you have a really lovely voice and accent If I had more IT skills (and a little more courage ) I could be tempted to do one......I have to say, Joal, it's a bit strange hearing that I have an accent. But thank you very much. I would love to hear your voice. I'm sure your accent is awesome! Link to comment

I might be able to do a YouTube video and just point my camera at the wall while I talk to spare everyone from having to look at me. Link to comment
EmeraldThread Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I really wanna do this! I sound dumb, and I don't know how to do any sort of voice recording on my computer. ^^; Maybe sometime when I'm all alone in my house (which is rarely), I'll get around to playing with it?Anyway, I like hearing you guys' voices! I love these sorts of things. :3randomgirl7, it's a weird coincidence that Foster's was on today, I watched it, and I haven't seen it for years. I dunno. I guess that struck me as a little bit funny.

I'm sure your accent is awesome!You're welcome Spoo I guess we all think we don't have an accent, but my British accent will sound like an accent to you - so therefore vice versa too!And thank you too, I would feel under pressure now! lol Link to comment

tma Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Oh my gosh!! SOOOO cute!! I absolutely *adore* actually getting to Hear people talk about stuff that like. I get all excited and grinning getting to hear the natural inflections and intonations, and when people are talking about things that they like- there is just this *something* in their voice that I LOVE!!I particularly like hearing voices that I don't normally get to hear. So, VoOs and pig- thanks SO much! <3 <3 (very glad that you felt comfortable enough recording not in native language) And reading in Finnish... (I had no clue but sounded nice).Thanks VoOs so much! Very fun. Oh... and the "non-techie people" ....

Giant Steps Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 This is a cool idea! Soooo... here goes silly!That's cool, pig! I don't know if I've ever heard Finnish before but I don't think it sounds completely unlike . Though I think Finnish sounds more "smooth".Now, as much as I enjoy being in a room full of lovely ladies talking away to me I guess I really should contribute a little. If I get a moment alone soon I MIGHT have a go at recording something. I don't want to promise anything! Link to comment

The way you articulate certain words is very interesting. Thanks for doing this, Joal! Link to comment

Thanks for doing this, Joal!You're welcome Spoo!Interesting good, or interesting bad? *wonders which words*I was probably a bit stilted compared to my "natural" voice because it's a slightly artificial situation. But I'm glad I did it anyway!And not a pun in sight..... Link to comment
