Dow

(adj.) Having a jazzy or bluesy quality or the quality of a cheesey nightclub singer like the kind Bill Murray used to play on Saturday Night Live, esp. in a non-jazz context. Pronounced as if ending in an exclamation point.

Ravel's "Le Gibet" contains many dow chords. Sometimes when Jessye Norman sings she sounds kinda dow.
