That has to go on my list:

Must be able to sing with any potential lifemate. Not necessarily beautiful singing, but I must not shudder and cringe when they sing, and they must not shudder and cringe when I sing, and neither of us must be intimidated into silence by the other's singing.

*nod* That one's on my list of highly-desirable traits. I'll live without it for someone otherwise almost perfect, but I'll miss it a lot. =(

Heh. I used to desperately want someone who could sing to me. I love the singing voice, I really do. And yet, both of my husbands have been bad singers. Well, Chris *can* sing, if he tries, and his voice is lovely, but not good. (Mark I would forcibly stop from singing, can't keep a tune in a bucket, and NO sense of rhythm! *giggle*) But...I don't miss it so much. Chris plays for me, and I've found it entirely makes up for not singing... *sigh* It was such a joy to play with him, those two weeks...and that's what drive me at that drumset, you know. The idea of playing with him again.

Right now I'm living almost without my favorite band for the sake of someone excellent. Evidently R.E.M. is depressing to some people.

With mine, his voice is beautiful but his singing is mostly bad... but that he lets me hear him sing at all is worth all that. Singing *with* him is better. (And LJ & Yahoo between them have been eating my comment e-mails.)

Yep, playing with them is always fun. That's one of the things about my family that I was always vaguely discontent with... everyone but me played an instrument. My sister hated my singing.
