Added 2024-05-14 19:47:34 +0000 UTCthe noise is my silk robe but I couldn't record without it
so many have read this beautifully so went with ack-ting it. It's aigh. I like the second half pretty good.
A lot of requests for this so don't say I never did ya no favors, kid
Plus it's my paw's favorite.
[I liked the Tiny Toons version a lot but don't hold me to that - it's been a minute since I've revisited it]

Thank you so much!! 🥰🐦⬛ You have one of the BEST voices I’ve ever heard. It’s like the first taste of morning coffee. Velvet. To top it off, you’re so incredibly talented with acting and voice acting. While I love the NSFW content, (of course🤤) your SFW stuff 🤌 if you never got me off, I’d still support you. I’d pay you to read the damn phone book and breathe. You, sir, are greatly appreciated, seen, and loved. Thank you for who you are and all you do. I’ve always been partial to the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror version lol but this is tops.

2024-10-09 14:33:10 +0000 UTCWas wandering back through your SFW catalogue [prompted by your wonderful performance of Flynn's fantastic story tn] and I've been stopped in my digital tracks by this. I listened back in May, when I was still a little too shy [or something?] to comment on your posts, but I'm moved [emboldened?] these days. You pick up a poem read in 100s and 1000s of voices and make it something really yours. It's such a visual reading, it plays in my ears like you on a stage, inhaling anguish, yearning, love, madness, and exhaling the colors of deepest loss. All clicks into something uniquely yours, but generously shared. And thank god you share. Thank you for the safety and spark to share back. These injections of aural and written magic really do seem to be working 🫶🏻

2024-05-16 03:38:22 +0000 UTCFound the Simpson's version if anyone is interested (Inspired by the lovely Lina!). I forgot it was done by James Earl Jones as well as the cast. https://youtu.be/bLiXjaPqSyY

2024-05-15 19:34:35 +0000 UTCLoved this! My high school English teacher (who we love dearly) had my class memorize different lines of this poem once and perform it by standing on a dark gymnasium floor with the audience elevated above us. As each kid read their lines, they’d turn on a flashlight held in front of them that only illuminated their faces and you never knew where the next flashlight would go off next. It was actually quite well orchestrated given how young we were. Anyway, your reading blows ours out of the water heartily 😂

2024-05-15 12:37:08 +0000 UTCWoahhh for my senior One Act Play we did “Shuddersome: Tales of Poe” which included multiple of his stories-including the Raven. And in fact! Each story had different actors as the characters (and the rest were the creepy ensemble behind the scene itself.) And my story was The Raven!! Along with 4 other girls-we all completed synchronized movements while taking turns at lines. And the lines would be said with appropriate inflection/rhythm/etc except a completely straight face. Not to brag but it was the hardest scene of the play 💅🏼 Might send you a picture if I can find one. (We won our competition.)

2024-05-15 03:42:27 +0000 UTCIn case anyone else wants to go down memory lane, I found the tiny toons version. Doc, I may be a bias patient here, but I like yours better. 🤷♀️ https://vimeo.com/389628985
