I notice a common pattern for voicing characters like Sméagol (Lord of the Rings), Stitch (Lilo & Stitch), Mogwai (Gremlins), and Jar Jar Binks (Star Wars Ep. 1) that involves falsetto and raising the back of the tongue to the roof of the mouth while talking. Is there a common name for that technique?

I haven't found much discussion around this topic, so if anyone has links to existing articles or posts I'd appreciate it! Are there any concerns with the BIOS getting out-of-date if running SteamOS on a device that comes with Windows installed by default? A Lenovo support page, for example, specifies that the version is for devices running Windows. If you want to update the BIOS, do you have to reinstall Windows first?

Any info here would be a big help.

I'm looking for an album, probably R&B or hiphop, that has a specific interlude track. It's between actual songs, so the lyrics don't seem to be listed anywhere that I've searched.

The audio is a black woman talking to herself, and every so often a gospel choir will respond melodically to what she says. I don't quite remember what she was talking about but I think it was meant to be motivational or building herself up. There are some angelic or heavenly sounds like birds chirping. The only words I remember are:

Woman: "You feel me?" Choir: in unison "We feel you!"

It was probably from the late 90's or early 00's when CDs were still a thing.
