C'mon gals, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

It's that deep soulful toe-curling growl that some men just instinctively know how to weave into songs.

Conway Twitty had it.

Kenny Rogers has it.

Jeff Bates has it.

Mark Miller has it.

Josh Turner has it.

Even the young Blaine Larsen has it.

It's that sexy guttural sound that makes a woman weak in the knees and unable to utter anything but a honey sweet moan of pure lusty desire.

Ladies, this hub's for you. Gentlemen, I'd take notes (and singing lessons!) if I were you!
