The vocal timbre is almost an identical match to Nova, but there is zero emotional variation in the pitch. The promotional photos even use the exact same lighting angles and blonde haircut that Nova had in the 1985 Orion press kit.

Compare the chorus of 'Mirror Signal' to 'Memory Hatch'. It's the same chord progression played by a sequencer with no human feel. -- Jen González US Robotics Courier V.34 @ 28,800 bps "The carrier frequency does not drift by accident."
