And Now for a Musical Interlude 2
Afterthought:
Why do so many of today’s female pop singers choose to sing in voices that sound like little girls?
I mentioned this to my friend today, and she has the same wonder.
This website does not track you.
It contains no private information. It does not drop persistent cookies, does not collect data other than incoming ip addresses and page views (the internet is a public place), and certainly does not collect and sell your information to others.
Some sites that I link to may try to track you, but that's between you and them, not you and me.
I do collect statistics, but I use a simple stand-alone Wordpress plugin, not third-party services such as Google Analitics over which I have no control.
Finally, this is website is a hobby. It's a hobby in which I am deeply invested, about which I care deeply, and which has enabled me to learn a lot about computers and computing, but it is still ultimately an avocation, not a vocation; it is certainly not a money-making enterprise (unless you click the "Donate" button--go ahead, you can be the first!).
I appreciate your visiting this site, and I desire not to violate your trust.

It’s not just today. Check out any Marilyn Monroe song performance. Check out the woman who did the voices for Betty Boop, whose name I’m spacing out on right now, but her record of “He’s So Unusual” was big hit 80 years or more ago. Root around in those corners of YouTube, you’ll find hundreds of examples.

Good point!
You’re probably thinking of Helen Kane, who I would have thought of, but I did a web search after reading your comment and found this.
But the little girl voices seem to be almost epidemic these days (not that I pay all that much attention to popular music any more–Benny Goodman and Rimsky-Korsakov are more my speed).
And thanks for visiting!
