Ben does kinda remind me of Raine but for some reason, I just can't stand his voice. Like the new Billy Talent song...I find it to be a really good song but his voice just kills me! It's sooo whiny...

I've loved you all along
Just like sunny days that
We ignore because
We're all dumb and jaded
And I hope to God I figure out
What's wrong

except when they're completely monotone (a la Killers) and rough/growly-ish (a la Nickelback, Theory, etc.)

oh! i forgot, also David Usher. he was doing a show at the Living Arts Centre, and had scheduled a phone interview with out arts guy, but the secretary patched him through to me by accident. i picked up the phone and he was like "hi, is this chris? this is david usher calling, we scheduled an interview."
that was sooooo cool, i was skipping aroudn the office the whole day.

Whoa...that is so cool! Did you get to talk to him? I got his autograph once but was too awestruck to strike up a conversation.kermit__35 wrote:oh! i forgot, also David Usher. he was doing a show at the Living Arts Centre, and had scheduled a phone interview with out arts guy, but the secretary patched him through to me by accident. i picked up the phone and he was like "hi, is this chris? this is david usher calling, we scheduled an interview."

And yeah, I realize that Raine's voice is beyond annoying to some people but in my biased view, I find it unique. The guy from Billy Talent is just screamy and whiny...almost like Pierre from Simple Plan. I can't stand those types of voices.

I didn't get a chance to talk to him, I was too starstruck because it was just so out of the blue so I stuttered and transfered the call haha.SpiritualJunkie wrote:Whoa...that is so cool!

I like those kind of voices though, I think that Avril can definately achieve such uniqueness in her voice if she just lets go...Alanis Morisette's voice on You Oughta Know is amazing, I wish she never changed.

Ahhh...he was willing to talk to you and you transferred the call???
Are you trying to compare Alanis's voice to the voices from my 'whiny voice' category?
'Cause I really don't see any similarities. Avril has a pretty unique voice...I'd recognize her voice on the radio even if I didn't know the song.
BTW, I added you to my MSN...can I have the song?

Hahaha...you should have just stolen that article from him!
And if he got mad, then I would have just been like "Hey, David offered!"
I still like Alanis but why does having happy songs mean having pop songs?
I couldn't stand "Everything".
