Very Random WDW Trivia Question I Have...

Hey all,

So I was listening to my Epcot playlist on my computer while cleaning my house this evening and noticed something interesting on one of the tracks. I am a huge fan of voice acting and of an actor named Jess Harnell who you might know as Br'er Rabbit and others from Splash Mountain. But anyway, I was listening to the Food Rocks track and during Pita Gabriel's "High Fiber" song I thought the voice sounded almost identical to that of Harnell's. Since he's voiced attractions in the past I was wondering if he also voiced Pita in the show? I know it's a random question but I was just curious if anyone knew?

I don't know for sure, but some glimmer of a memory is saying that I read that they got a number of the actual artists to record their spoof songs in Food Rocks. (Not all of them obviously, but some)

It's possible it was actually Peter Gabriel.

Edit: Apparently the voices that were the real artists were Tone Loc, Neil Sedaka, Little Richard, the Pointer Sisters and Chubby Checker. So you may be right about Pita Gabriel.

Thanks for the response Rob. I checked Wiki to see if Harnell was on the list and in the sections that listed the actual artists that worked on Food Rocks, Peter Gabriel wasn't on the list which made me think it was someone else doing the voice.

i heard this too, which is quite possibly how they were so dead on with voices :)
