    After my grandfather got mauled to death by that rat I would go to the office of the London underground everyday to complain just how irresponsible it is that the announcement that day sounded so annoying. I hope this is a step into a more positive future and people like my grandfather can have peace from now on because they hear your voice when they pass.

    I think you did those lines justice. The robotic train voice in Australia doesn't really convey the urgency of the situation when a homicidal kangaroo boards the rear carriage.

    • @blueberryy4702
      @blueberryy4702 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      The older trains don't have robotic announcements, and sometimes the announcements on the platform don't work. It's so nice when that happens because you can really hear the emotion in the announcer's voice.

      Fun fact: Assuming you’re talking about NSW, the voice of Sydney Trains is Taylor Owynns, who voiced the character Lulu in the old live action version of the children’s show Bananas In Pyjamas.

    The press release:
    *The new sound of the Underground*
    London-based TH-camr Adrian Gray (29) has been chosen to voice the announcements on the incoming rolling stock for 2024. Gray's only previous voiceover work was the voice of 'seal 12' in a recent nature documentary, and he was awarded this new position largely out of nepotism. Adrian said 'I was delighted to find out I will be the voice of the Underground announcements and can't wait to get recording and also to sort out these lawsuits between me the Build A Bear Workshop.'

    My old, sweet neigbour did the actual voice for the train announcements in the Stockholm subways blue line. It was always weird to hear her whenever I got to and from work (or just took the train home from the pub, drunk AF a saturday night). She was a TV-announcer in the 70s or something, had the voice for it.
