His voice sounds like it would work on broadway or some musical...but not for sheer musical enjoyment. |

I am one that loves Rufus' voice, but this song wouldn't entice me to buy the cd. Saw him last night on Elvis Costello's talk show thing, quite good.

Nicole Atchins can pull this singing style off because she has the lungs to back it up.
Rufus, go home.

I am sure there is a technical term for what I object to. It kind of resonates in my inner ear in a bad way.
I think the term your searching for is laziness. At least that's my take. |

Nice lyrics, crap voice.
I'll admit the tone of his voice isn't to everyone's taste, but the, I dunno, emotion? that he puts into the lyrics makes it special for me. |

Oh yeah. Dead on. Obviously others like him, but it pains me. |

Nope, just can't handle his voice at 8am. Too much.

I'm just a little bit heiress
A little bit Irish
A little bit Tower of Pisa
Whenever I see ya
So please be kind if I'm a mess
Great lyrics, and fun to sing along with. Way to go, Rufus!
