    Julie is the kind of singer whose voice lifts you right out of the everyday, takes you over the rainbow, puts you on a cloud over in Never Never Land...and then floats you back gently to Earth with a bit of the cloud and Never Never Land still in your heart and in your soul and in your eyes!

    Julie Andrews has the most pure voice of any other singer. She has so much emotion and it crushed her when she could no longer sing. Singing was her career, her joy, and her love.

      Everyone says I have a voice like her's. I am a Coloratura. My vocal range is from D4-F6. I do not get the low notes in. I can hit middle C, but It is quite difficult. So think again before saying No Voice Like Her's. I have gone to BGT but I'm still waiting for the results. I have literally sang all of her songs. From all movies. All songs right. Do Ray Mi at the ending is a middle level of difficulty It is C6.

      ed hondo As a child, Andrews was, according to Neil Norman of the Daily Express, an agile coloratura soprano with an extensive vocal range that spanned four octaves. Additionally, the actress boasted perfect pitch, which some critics, astonished by her talent and musicianship, received as "freakish" at the time.[85]

  • @BTURNER1961
    @BTURNER1961 10 років тому +162

    Not a hint of the diva mentality here., Andrews knows that the neither the lyric nor melody need any adornment or extra 'glitter'. She sings it simply and lets the intrinsic power of the work shine. Her voice is the vehicle, but the spotlight is always on the song. Too many performers haven't the discipline, or the confidence to do this. One may feel entitled to 'gild the lily' periodically, with some vocal pyrotechnics, but it isn't always an improvement.

      Right on. What makes her appealing to me is the slightest hint of awkwardness that sets off her grace, that keeps her ever from seeming affected. Her mature voice is of course much better than that of the girl who first hit Broadway. Much lovelier. What a pro she is.
