I dunno, it's different certainly, but it's got a earnest and real quality to it.. His lyrics are really what moves people. No questions about In the Aeroplane is one of the finest albums ever made. So, Magnum'll join a list with Dylan, Springsteen, Jon Brion, Colin Meloy and Billy Corgan of people with different voices that just work. Back to this list though. Some lesser know possibilities.

How's about :

Elliott Smith

Stuart Murdoch (Belle and Sebastian)

Chris Martin (Coldplay)

Ben Gibbard (Death Cab)

Tom Chaplin (Keane)

The Watkins Siblings (Nickle Creek)

Gerry Rafferty (Stuck in the Middle With You, Right Down the Line, Baker Street.)

 

the thing is, is mangums voice is so much more jagged than Dylans. Dylans is odd, but smooth, it feels like the vinyl itself. Mangums is more violent, textured and jagged and can really hurt at points. I love NMH, but, I would never give his voice any awards.
