Title: ACTORS WHO TRY TO SING
Post by: RCMerchant on June 25, 2019, 09:29:25 AM
I was thinking of Raymond Burr singing 'Windmills of Your Mind'- but Nimoy doing 'Proud Mary' is pretty much a "why"?

Wow, did you see SID HAIG is in the credits...?  Cool.  I own SPIDER BABY but I never look at it...  :twirl:  Definitely a Top 10 Bad Movie.

Bruce Willis.

Between Moonlighting and Die Hard he had a couple of hit singles in the UK. No idea if he charted elsewhere.

It's Nicole Kidman singing 'Something Stupid'. I had no idea it was blocked in America. It is usually the other way around, countries outside the U.S. getting shafted.

The cast of Sunshine On Leith do a good job of singing songs by The Proclaimers.

(https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4e/Sunshine_on_Leith.jpg)

I had a big silly grin on my face at the end of this: it really is a great film.

Here are some who have not been mentioned.

Kirk Douglas and Burt Lancaster
Unknown, but the pair made a wonderful singing duo.

Boris Karloff and Vincent Price
Red Skelton Show. Another pair that made a wonderful singing duo.

Vincent Price
Again. This time as a solo artist in The House of Seven Gables. A beautiful voice. Though, I'm not sure whether he was singing as a baritone or a tenor.

Harve Presnell
Paint Your Wagon, since we mentioned Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin.

Will Smith
I shouldn't have been, but, I was taken back by how well he sings in Aladdin.

Christopher Lee
I have never heard him, but those who have, say he had a wonderful bass voice.

Not in films or on TV, but here are a couple of more.
Lorne Greene with the recording of Ringo and Walter Brennan with Old Rivers.

And we probably should mention a couple, not previously mentioned, who should never have been allowed in the recording studio.
A wonderful actress, but a terrible singer, Bette Davis, and her male counterpart, another wonderful actor, but a terrible singer, Sebastian Cabot.

And the strangest singing performance, that'd have to go to Paul Frees, who put out a record, singing not as himself, but imitating many other actors.

Christopher Lee
I have never heard him, but those who have, say he had a wonderful bass voice.


He used to sing opera and released a couple of heavy metal albums (I have one of them, a concept album about Charlemagne. And there is always this cinematic treat (alas I have not been able to find a full copy of this movie).

Here are 13 more, excluding most musicals.

TV talk show hosts
Mike Douglas and Merv Griffith
The latter voiced a character called Merv Griffin on the animated TV series Hercules, who, of course, was both a talk how host and a griffin.

Doris Day
the man who knew too much

Natalie Wood
the great race

Robert Mitchum
thunder road

Steve Martin
little shop of horrors

More actor? More singer? They seemingly moved effortlessly between the two
Burl Ives -- JImmy Dean -- Shaun Cassidy

And . . .
Danny Kaye -- David Soul -- Jon Schneider -- Marlene Dietrich

As for singers, who were also actors . . .?
