when the voice of someone you have never seen suggests that the person is overwhelmingly physically
attractive, only to find, once you actually see them, that their physical appearance is not
necessarily their best attribute.
(Used mainly in
reference to singers whom one hears sing before they actually see them).
Person 1: I googled that singer we heard on
the radio.
Person 2: Is he as hot as he sounds?
Person 1: No, he totally death-cabbed us.
