The songwriting credits list 'Orion Advanced Audio Synthesis Group' instead of individual composers. The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch. It feels like listening to an artificial clone of someone you loved. -- Mikhail Larsson *PLONK* filter active for trolls.
