Katya, you didn't think that anyone else on a Mormon forum knew Voice Male? Or am I understanding wrong?

I . . . just haven't met that many people who'd heard of them. That's all. (Or maybe I just haven't had enough conversations about local a capella groups with the people I do talk to on a regular basis.)

We have the album, "Hooked." "Farmer's tan on my neck and arms. Farmer's tan, the secret of my charms. Every girl wants a man with a farmer's tan." Love it.

"Hooked" is my favorite of the albums I have. Did you know one of their members died last year?

I didn't know anyone else here knew that group. I have three of their CDs (but I don't think that "Five Long Years" is on any of them).
Yeah, I have loved Voice Male since before they were famous (think 1995-96). I should probably make a T-shirt saying that I liked them before everyone else.

"Five Long Years" comes from one of their first CDs back when there were 9 of them.

Oh, wow. I didn't know there'd ever been that many in the group. I got to know them shortly after "Hims" came out, whenever that was.

Yeah, my choir teacher is bitter about Voice Male, because when they first lost those extra 3 people, he auditioned to become part of the group, and he was basically there when they called and said "We like what we've already got better" and they've been 6-man ever since. Except, I guess, now it's 5? That's sad.

(Okay, for the sake of being accurate, in case any of my high school alumni stop by and want to harangue me, they actually said "The more we sing together, the more we like ourselves." Since that's a line that gets made fun of in choir.)

Oh, man. Well, their harmonies were so tight with just 6 that it's hard to imagine them as big as 9, but that's not a very good way of letting people know. And, judging by a brief visit to their website, it looks like they've got a new person to replace Phil, but I don't know any more than that.

No, C is for, that is NOT how we do it. Also, how come you didn't say that for me? Do you like Tao better? Does he have a nicer car than me?

Also, I know Voice Male. But I do not like them.

Just checking, Marduk! I didn't do that for you because you didn't post a song after you'd forgotten a day, so there was no element of confusion.

They are utterly ubiquitous in this area, Katya. You'd have more paucity if you asked who DIDN'T know them.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound condescending. But rare is the moment when I can claim to be more in the know than Katya.

Oh, I know almost nothing about music (especially popular music), so, on that topic, you can rest assured you generally know more than me. :)

I said at the beginning I didn't think I'd last long, and I have officially run out of songs for this topic. I guess I still have a little while, but I doubt that I'll think of anything.
