Shaky, nervous Seymour is suddenly a smooth-voiced tenor and BrokenBird Audrey can easily take up professional singing. Especially obvious in "Suddenly Seymour" in which the switch is very audible. Justified, as singing while doing a voice isn't exactly easy, let alone with thick accents. Rick's Canadian accent comes out everyone once in a while when he has to say "soorey."
