Monday, March 21, 2011 by starkers | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hey folks, I saw this on TV earlier today and thought this singer to be absolutely amazing, with the ability to sing as a woman AND a man.

Sorry, but I do not know how to embed this video, but you can view it here

So, what do you think?

Yeah using the old embed code from youtube is not working either. I tried for you but no luck. The Youtube full version is found here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjLI1J5ITYI

With Opera 11.01 the vids you both posted (the same vid) is perverctly visible. Not so in ff4 (final), nor in ie9.

I dunno, some weird stuff is happening here.  I tried embedding in FF but it didn't show up again, So I went into IE8 to try it in there.  It still didn't work [just a red X showing in the box] and when I came back to FF this post was completely empty

Try Opera, or Pale Moon. You'll be surprised, mate.

I'll take a look shortly... I've heard about this Pale Moon so I might give it a try.

Forget about the gender thing and think solely about the voice.... you gotta admit, there's some awesome vocals going on there.

Okay, I'll give that a go... thanks, mate.

BTW, what do you think of this singer's voice?

I imagine the issue has to do with the coding here at WC, not with the browsers.

The first voice sounded sweet but when I heard the man's voice it kinda soured. Then I remembered the title. Transgender.

That was my initial reaction, that the singer is talented and the voice is amazing.

The first voice sounded sweet but when I heard the man's voice it kinda soured. Then I remembered the title. Transgender.

Putting the transgender thing aside, just think about how many men over the last 40 - 50 years have tried to sing like women with falsetto voices and the like.  Now here is a person who has the ability the sing in both male and female registers, without having to force it and sound phony.  That in itself is an amazing talent, and not something too many people would be capable of, including transgenders.

In any event, the female voice is sweet and near pitch perfect, and the male voice is strong, confident and near pitch perfect, and those are the qualities a recording company would be seeking when signing up new artists.

Me, well I wouldn't get into bed with a transgender person, but then that's not what is being asked of me here.  I'm being presented with a unique singing voice and then it's a matter of whether I like it or not.... and frankly, yes I do.

Now c'mon Doc, stop thinking below the belt and get with the music, okay. 

Though you're probably right.  This person may or may not have a thingy to put aside, tuck away, whatever, but mightn't appreciate having somebody swing it aside, one way or the other.

Seriously, though, I can't see why this person being a transgender should make any difference, the talent is there and that is all that should matter.

Geez you're a bunny fugger, WG  .... tho backing singers might be needed for a full rendition of Bohemian Rhapsody, me thinks.
