  1. Thanks for posting the clip. I'd say more like #2. You hear that sound a lot in his classic laugh (or at least the first half of the laugh). Two good examples in this vid are: 2:31 - "What ever did happen on that date" 3:04 - "We'd love to have you for snack time" Thanks!
  2. I share vocals with a singer in my band. She has a tendency to slip into this mode of singing that I can only describe as sounding akin to the Peewee Herman character. I want to discuss this with her, but I'm trying to come up with a more descriptive (and less offensive) way to deliver this criticism than to tell her she sounds like Peewee Herman. I would also like to help her develop some techniques to steer her away from this voice. The best way to imitate the sound I'm describing is to raise the very back of the soft palate, including the uvula, and use a head voice. It gives a somewhat nasal-y quality to the voice, but not your standard congested nasal sound. More of a, well... Peewee Herman sound. I hope someone understands what I'm talking about. Can anyone offer any hints on what this sound/vocal quality might be called, or how to combat natural tendencies to slip into this voice? If I just knew what it was called I could do the research myself. But I get nowhere googling "peewee herman voice". Thanks a bunch! -jbg
