[@adamgarris7224]

What I love about her voice is that she doesn't need to change it much to speak like Lisa. Her natural voice sounds like an adult Lisa.

[@alextirrellRI]

Well now we know how underused she is on the show! Does Lisa nearly exclusively for 30 years and she comes up with 8 voices on the spot.

[@darkteentitan2699]

It could be a personal choice that she only likes to do Lisa

[@darkteentitan2699]

Also 8 voices on the spot as she calls each one out for being super similar to Lisa

I feel like hers is the best I’ve seen and she started off by saying it would all sound the same - which I don’t think it did

[@xenophile84]

I love this. When she reminded us at the beginning that she only does one voice on The Simpsons (which I already knew), I was half expecting all of the characters to sound like Lisa, but she actually has awesome range!

[@mpa1931]

Wow I wonder why she only does Lisa? She has much more to offer

[@niels6190]

M Pa It’s because you always hear a little Lisa, but I agree, her voice is more universal than it’s portrayed and should be used more. She did voice some one-time character though

[@anthonynorman7545]

Cuz there's always a hint of Lisa. The voices almost sound like Lisa doing impersonations

[@itsgonnarain135]

[@jeffk.9075]

Her version as Lisa Simpson of God Bless the Child is still my favorite of all time.

[@jbghumanjr]

The fact she used "Solar Plexus" as a description for the mid-section of the body shows how rad her mind is. I wrote/directed a film called SPORK where she blessed me with her talents as playing the teacher in my movie. She was extremely kind on set and nothing but amazing with her fast wit / quick timing. Truly a dope person. Film link in case you'd like to see - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jZy3dWdjrbdrrrM (ps: she could totally be sisters with Renee Zellweger)

[@ZwoolkTheNarwhale]

I swear the Solar Plexus is just the scientific name for that mid-section. Still an amaizing person.

[@mydogbrian4814]

> Its all about Lisa! - A magic blend of voice, character & a striving for perfection. And which, like all of us, failing in the quest. - I love listening to her in a southern drawl, and when she's, so rarely, drunk & bitchy. - And finally the shananagens she and her sibling rival get into that reveal "the dark side of Lisa". - You go girl! Never change. And continue making us devoted fans hungry for more & Yeardly a happy millionaire. ☆☆☆☆

[@strugglingwriter7228]

As a brit/Londoner, I can say her cockney accent was amazing! So surprised an American can do it!

[@kingkingsley8099]

She has much greater vocal range than I thought. It's a shame that unlike Nancy Cartwright and Dan Castellaneta, Yardley Smith does not have that many voice roles outside of The Simpsons.

Clearly there is one distinct voice that keeps recurring (Lisa) however, there were a few variations and good attempts. But obviously her main voice, which already sounds like Lisa, is definitely her selling point and all that is needed. Just remember, quality not quantity.

[@daniellikahong]

She also was in the TV Serie: Dharm & Greg. Man I loved that show harder than The Simpsons. Yeardley you were great in it!!

"but really, my hair is my helmet' ...Yeardley your improv is on fleek! (but maybe that expression isn't?) How do you keep the voice dialed in? If I start with an accent, say Irish...I start sliding into ? something British and only last maybe :15 seconds then slide into something else. Yer awesome! ... "I can make a very big noise like this AAAAAAAAHhhhhhh"...so wonderful! It was fun!

[@KeithNovember]

When you were on Hermans Head, and I noticed your voice was Lisa's.... I was 8, and that's what taught me about voice acting! I wanted to be a voice actor ever since.
