My voice is high-pitched, but I don't consider it unusual.

I sound like I'm 5, I don't sound out my words right, and I sometimes talk with this high pitch little kid voice. Its so embarrasing! Everybody around me sometimes loves listening to me talk though, because every now and then I have accents, like there be times, I have a Brooklyn accent, or a English accent, or a Swedish accent, or Spanish accent, or I'll sound like I'm a baby sometimes, like I'm gooing as I'm talking. I don't know whats wrong with me haha.

Apparently I have a 'distinctive' voice, but I wouldn't like to speculate on whether or not it is usual or unusual.

There are many soundalikes of me in those old UK Public Service Films from the Cold War, a sort of firm-sounding 'Queens English'. It gets a few funny looks at Uni, as I sound significantly older than perhaps I should, but the Americans seem to like it.

I'm stuck with it anyway, so no point in complaining. :)

No one's told me i have a strange voice, but the people in my family aren't exact normal.(Extended family. Everyone's a little strange or crazy etc etc etc whathaveyou. Although I'm probably the only AS guy.)


My accent is a flucuation between northeastern(Philadelphia/South-Jersey area) and implacable indescriptness. Proper language and alot of slang both. It's wierd. Depends on my mood and stress level.

My voice is distinct, and is very coarse-sounding.

When I talk there is no real fluctuation in my tone, it all seems to stay the same. I have tried recording onto a dictaphone, then lowering and raising my voice to see the difference but there was none. Someone said to me before that I had a very monotone voice, I think I do :?

I should also note that I sometimes have trouble controling the Volume of my voice.,...if tha tmeans anything.

My voice has always been pretty deep for a girl, even when I was a toddler.

People have mistaken ME for my father also. I have NO idea why! HE has a low voice that sounds perhaps his age. I sound like I am maybe 20, and have sounded that way for over 24 YEARS! BTW one person recently said I have a singsong voice! GO FIGURE.
