• "It has to be said that the voice of Eartha Kitt is an acquired taste as it doesn't suit everyone. It has a throaty quality that just oozes sex appeal. That, and her habit of languidly pouring herself onto settees, or men, was considered almost too sexy for her TV audiences."

    Martin Hutchinson, ''the Eartha Kitt collection'' (2000)

  •  "Miss Kitt who tends to be cool about her success, feels that this showing is respectable for a newcomer. 'Particularly when they saw I haven't got a voce', she adds crisply."

    James Gavin, box-set ''Eartha-Quake'' (1993)

  • "Fisrt of all, Eartha Kitt has a voice which is her own, her very own signature; it

    can be imitated, which is good, but never duplicated, which is better.
          "The voice has a carefully developed feline feeling, also exceptionally useful for
    suggesting more than customarily meets the ear when any singer displays tonsils for
    pay. The voice itself has a clearly discernible vibrato which is part of its high
    recognizability quotient; once you've heard it you hardly may mistake it for anyone
    else's. Its vibrati is not so broad as to suggest a musical shortcoming, as aging
    larynxes on the part of operatic soloists have a habit of doing. Its vibrati run so tightly
    together that it becomes a clear help instead of an artistic hindrance. Eartha projects it
     with agreat deal of mood whithin its vibrating limitations, if there are actually any
    limitations to her attitude, which also is part of the plot for success".
    Jack O'Brian, "Down to Eartha" (1955)

    Eartha Kitt, since 1983.
    But even in 1971, we can heard her in Up the chastity belt and her song A knight for my nights
