Oh yeah, that one does have a higher pitched voice. Sounds like a woman's voice!
The budgies that have the male voices of their owners sound lower than that. I guess they just take on whatever voice they are most accustomed to hearing!
I heard one with an incredibly low voice and that was the one that reminded me of Darth Vader a tiny bit, lol!

You bring up a very valuable point!! I totally forgot that birds mimic the voices that they hear! The Budgie in the Youtube video must have an owner with a high pitch voice. I know of this other Youtube video of a Congo African Grey who's owner is a man from England, I believe, so his Grey has an English accent when it talks!! It almost makes me want to try to talk in an accent when I get my Grey haha! Good luck with your Budgie talking! Post some videos if you can.
