pitch to another so fast it sounds fake.
So that's how they did that. I had always wondered why it sounded
so synthesized. That makes sense. I'll have to listen more closely the
next time I'm subjected to that Cher thing or Kid Rock's travesty of
music (the name of which mercifully escapes me at the moment).
