Why does Toby Keith's voice vibrate like that of a goat?

[Floogeldy]

He has a goat vibrato. Some genes must have intertwined a generation or so ago, methinks.

1. He imitates his girlfriend.

[alittlelark]

5. She is actually rather pretty.

[Floogeldy]

6. I see no reason for you to insult that beautiful goat!

By comparing her to Toby's girlfriend! ;)

[The Zanti Regent]

16. actually, he sounds more like Farinelli

and I bet he had the same kind of operation done to him...

[andino]

2. dupe

[andino]

3. damn back button

[alittlelark]

4. It has to do with his orgasmic harmony.....

... don't ask.

[Maple]

7. Please stop insulting goats!

They are very intelligent creatures who've already had enough bad press!

[tuvor]

8. Something happened between picture A and picture B.

Steroids?

12. Gotta love the country mullet.

[The Zanti Regent]

17. Only his hairdresser knows for sure...

Calling Blog Active....

18. Cornbread and fatback.

He's got batwing triceps. :puke:

[meg]

9. I was going to say because he is a goat

But then, everyone pointed out that that was an insult to goats. So now I say because he is a goat wanna-be.

[AntiCoup2K4]

19. Nah, he ain't a goat. Definitely a sheep

Or more specifically, a Busheep :puke:

registered Democrat my ass.

[StopTheMorans]

10. because he is the spawn of Satan

no offense to Satan, or any of his other spawn, intended...

[PatriotGames]

11. Toby Keith sucks.

:puke:

[jackelope72]

14. Hey, he's a Ford Truck man.

That's all he drives.
He ain't got no boundaries.
He don't compromise.

Okay, I was trying to be humorous by posting the lyrics to that stupid commercial he does, but all I've done is succeeded in making myself :puke:. Sorry. Carry on.

[PatriotGames]

15. Built Ford tough? What sell out TK is.

:)

[Atlas Mugged]

21. Oh...THAT'S Toby Keith???

I kept hearing about him, but I really had no idea who the hell he is. And I totally despise the guy in the Ford ads, so now it all makes sense.

Those Ford ads are horrible. Over-the-top, testosterone-laden, hillbilly chest pounding.

[noonwitch]

13. Because he's Stevie Nicks' long lost son?

Just a guess.

20. "Melisma" is the technical name.

Definition: "A passage of several notes sung to one syllable of text, as in Gregorian chant."

It's found in Iberian music & around the world. Probably came into American music through African-American traditions, although it's also found in traditional Irish music. (You've heard of the "Black Irish"--or maybe you haven't.)

Toby Keith does nothing for me at all. But it's odd that you object to a musical technique that also offends uptight Anglo-Saxons.

22. LOL! n/t
