Micheal Jackson's Voice and Those Around Him

What I find most interesting is: a large number of people associated with Micheal Jackson take on many of Michael's vocal characteristics.

Michael would consistently speak in a soft voice; would speak without "normal" space between words, the words would run together like he was almost humming; would have the pentameter and cadence of music and used little reflection on individual words; would speak with a slightly higher than normal tone.

They attempt to mirror Michael's voice to show a certain amount of closeness that they once shared with Michael.

The problem is Michael's voice traits and characteristics were largely manufactured and altered consciously; and this in itself is a form of deceit.

When someone consciously changes the pitch and tone of their voice they are distancing themselves from what they are saying.◦
