Sid Vicious

Crazy motherfucker what played bass for one the best punk bands ever, the sex pistols, sid did not know how to play bass and was notorious for being violent on stage, anywhere from self-mutalating himself or calling the audience a "bunch of fucking queers"
in conclution SID VICIOUS is the definition of punk rock and is a fucking god

Tenor

The highest male singing voice. Usually plays the hero, the lover in opera or musical plays. They get all of the best pieces written for the male voice.

The countertenor has the normal range, speaking and singing, as a regular tenor, but is capable of singing in the contralto, mezzo-soprano, and, sometimes, even soprano ranges. They use falsetto, rather than their lower range, when singing.

The lyric tenor is the lighter, sweeter sounding, while the dramatic tenor has a stronger, richer, more heroic voice.
There's the Heldentenor, and he looks interested in the dramatic soprano, all decked out in her brass chestplate and horned helmet.

Mezzo-Soprano

The medium womon's singing voice. Plays evil characters; seductresses, vamps, occasionally teenage boys...
Listen to this... the lengendary mezzo-soprano character of Carmen... crooning her seductive Habañera...

Contralto

The lowest womon's singing voice; on her lowest notes, she sounds almost like a man, often leading to people mistaking them for men on the radio, telephone, or wherever.

The alto range, which is below soprano, is really a mish-mash of the mezzo-soprano range and the contralto range; the mezzo-soprano is the higher of the two.
The contralto voice is pretty rare since there is little work that was written specifically for them. Countertenors, mezzo-sopranos, and often tenors, baritones, and basses take the roles that were written for them.

Baritone

Moi.

The medium male singing voice. Plays the nasties in opera and musical theater: cruel prison wardens and other villains.
It's a rather sensuous voice range... although the tenor range is quite sexy for moi... what does it matter?

Tenor, baritone, or bass, the male voice turns me on!

Soprano

The highest womon's singing voice, usually limited to womyn and children.

Plays the heroine in opera and musicals...
Ranging from sweet, innocent little maidens, to long-suffering victim womyn and a few villains or semi-villains.
Sopranos... ranging from high, fluteish, tweety birds... to steely, powerful, DRAMATIC Wagner roles

Sadism

From the Marquis de Sade, enjoying inclicting pain, fear, and/or general suffering

Witnessing
the same things inflicted on others.

Similar to schadenfreude, but sadism is often more sexual in nature.
What are you-?! Get that snake away from me! You know that I'm scared of them-! What did I tell you?! Stop it! You're so damn sadistic!
