Hey, I like Harvey Fierstein’s voice. I just like everything about Harv, he’s the coolness. I gotta go with Ray Romano on this. In fact, I think Romano _is_ Satan. ---

I went with Rachael Ray. I don’t know what it is but I can’t stand her voice. It annoys the crap out of me. ---

And yet (if you do believe that he exists), the Bible says he keeps transforming himself into an angle of light. Being the ultimate tempter (as used on Adam & Eve, Jesus, Barny, etc …), I would think he would have a smooth, beguiling voice. ---

Being the ultimate tempter (as used on Adam & Eve, Jesus, Barny, etc …), I would think he would have a smooth, beguiling voice. That’s what I’d assume how Satan sounded. Something very pleasing, nigh irresistible. ---

The Prince of Lies has a smooth, almost pleasant voice. The Prince of Darkness & Destruction sounds like a dragon roaring. In other words, whatever he/she/it wants it to be. ---

That’s how I imagine Satan sounding like. Smooth, hypnotically ominous. ---
