I have to agree with Jen and erika: half. Plus ASH.

Dude, Depp is holding an SG.

I'm-a hurt myself.

Ladies, the pretty is only the half, I'm tellin' ya. Brosnan has a highish tenor speaking voice, it can be caramel-smooth, true, and very nice, and when he gets a hint of his Irish on, it's a pleasure.

Liam Neeson has a wonderful deep baritone, fuzzy, warm voice that just wraps around you like a woolen plaid in t'heather, but there's a brogue, not a burr. Nevertheless, it's lovely, intimate and yum.

Clooney has an ordinary voice, which in intimate moments is so full of laughter and light that listening is as heady as drinking champagne.

Colin Firth has a nimble voice that ranges from low tenor to baritone, skips lightly over a wide and intricate range of emotion, and can arrest one's heartbeat with the hush before a word.

Johnny Depp has a uniquely random, again, ordinary tenor voice, but he's learned to do things with it: take on effortless accent and dialect, deliver intonations of emotion so finely gradiated they can barely be measured except in the response of the listener.

John Hannah, who has come up in recent days in connection with that Auden eulogy, has a light baritone speaking voice, and a Scottish burr to strip the very defenses of myself and many another susceptible female.

Sean Bean's voice? Is sex.on.a.stick. Very very nice indeed when he's being mannerly and upperishly class Brit, dead hot sexy in his natural Yorkshire. Deep baritone, with a rasp to it that raises all the hairs on the back of the neck and the small of the back, turns the sexual radar dish in his direction and awaits further instructions.

So far O/T it's ridiculous, unless Seattle and San Francisco plan to add romantical readings to their respective pimpage, but you guys started it.

Pimp Point: Hot guys in San Francisco? Tend to be gay fellas. Seattle? Your odds are better, ladies.

Sean Bean's voice? Is sex.on.a.stick.

I've heard him. Nice Irish voice. Doesn't ping me at all; I remember Liam Clancy's.

To each her own, bebe.

Was that for a role? He's got what I think of as a Yorkshire accent.

He is a Yorkshire lad, indeed. Fay has verified it.

He played an Irish IRA member in Patriot Games, I think.

He played an Irish IRA member in Patriot Games, I think.

Yep. But I also remember him in one of the Bond movies. If he's a NoE boy, hats off - he does accents and intonations very nicely.

Very pretty, very nice. Reminds me a bit of Viggo Mortenson. My bells and whistles remain completely silent on that one.

VM and SB do have broadly similar bone structure, but VM does nothing for me largely because I don't like his voice. Too thin and raspy or something.

John Hannah, Hugh Laurie... ahhh.

Ooops, nevermind, looks like I wandered into the wrong thread.
