So I was listening to Taana Gardner's "Heartbeat" and I thought "Hmm, this might have been a good choice for a Ross single". [[I've come to amend that opinion, though not dismiss it entirely.) I decided to look the song up on wiki because I was curious about how successful the song was. [[I remember it being a big skating song for the older kids and adults at the rink back in the 80s.) There was a review in the Village Voice for the song and in describing Taana's voice the author wrote "...Taana, who'd combine the melodic dislocations of Esther Phillips and the girlish screech of Diana Ross if she had the technical control of either...". I read that and thought that was an interesting way of describing Diana's voice.
So my question to the forum is how would you describe Ross' voice? And "indescribable" is not a valid answer.
