Remember this Overstock.com commercial? It's been one of my favorite adverts of all-time. The woman is Sabine Ehrenfeld, a German model and actress born in Nov. 1963. I liked the commercial not just because she's pretty, but there's *something* about her voice that drives me wild, sending shivers down my spine. ("good" shivers) I'm not sure if it's the pitch or timbre of her voice that does it, but she's not the only female that does it to me; Shania Twain and Trisha Yearwood also affect me much the same way.
Now, I'm not particularly a huge fan of Twain and Yearwood's music; I like country just fine, but it's not my favorite musical genre. I do have a few tunes of each perfomer in my mp3 jukebox, but haven't collected their albums like you might think I would, especially considering how their voices make me feel. In fact, it's not Yearwood's singing voice that does it for me, but rather just her ordinary way of speaking. I try to catch her new cooking show on the Food Network as often as possible, Trisha's Southern Kitchen. I like her recipes just fine, but mostly enjoy listening to her talk.
While I'm on the subject of cooking shows, there's another lovely lady whose voice also drives me nuts and that's Nigella Lawson. I also try to watch her show as often as it comes on the network, but to be honest? Five minutes after the show was over I doubt I could tell you what she had cooked , but could definitely tell you the color of the sweater she had worn. Worn very well. -ahem-
