Is about as perfect a 'type' as you can imagine for Chris, and I think he was well cast in the DAMN YANKEES revival (for which he won a Tony Award), but...

Why, God... why are all his vowels so screwy?!?

I don't KNOW that he has no formal vocal training, but if he had a voice teacher that let him get away with those vowels, it's a tragedy of its own epic proportions.

- GMB, who is reminded that Steven Pasquale also has no formal voice training, and has a weird eeeu diphthongs when he sings "you."

Maybe it comes from being South Dakotan.

Well, I taught Voice and Articulation for two years in Kearney, Nebraska (an hour or so south of the Dakota border), and I always said it took the first half of the course to convince the students they had a front section of their mouth, so you may be on to something!
