Beerjeezus Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 That shirt and waistcoat looked a little too small for him (so short!) and he had a little muffin top above his pants but he pulled it off very well. That polka dot shirt and grey waistcoat was one of his best concert outfits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercali_swagilistic Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I have my own song on my boyfriend's band's album now - You know... I can't sing he just wanted me to shut up about Billie Joe offering me something I couldn't say no to: My own song xD A lovesong song written by me, about me and for me. Since it's on now, I can go on fangirling anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenXIdiot Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I finally listened to Billie Joe's Rolling Stone phone interview. He has such a nice speaking voice! And wow, he was much more coherent than he has traditionally been in interviews, I was so proud of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it sounds very different than it did in the past. I don't understand why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK I always end up laughing at how high it has become since I last heard him I'd really like to know how this could happen. He seems to talk in falsetto.

I know, how the hell does someones voice change like that. I know as we age our voices will change, but they generally don't get higher. Here is an interview from 1994 Here is one from Broadway Idiot, the interview starts around 1:15 They don't sound like the same person. How the hell does that happen? I agree, I like listening to him talk, but I liked the tone of his speaking voice when he was younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had such a smooth-sounding speaking voice before, as if the lower tones of his voice prevailed in it - does it make sense? but I still like it now. I just can't wrap my head around that change.

I wouldn't doubt that that is a factor, but I don't know if that would make that much of a difference. I've never smoked and no one I'm close with has ever smoked so I really don't know.

Im not sure but when you quit smoking other things improve - like lung capacity etc so I wouldn't doubt that there would be voice changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To an extent - I think. The dryness and irritation of the vocal chords would be alleviated, even if a full reversal to pre-smoking state wasn't possible due to lesions etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurpleIron1039 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 I hate to admit this, because it makes me sound like one of those teenybopper fans, but one thing that initially drew me to GD was how green and pretty Billie's eyes are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
