Its what you prepare yourself to hear.
Try "Brain needle" and "greenstorm". That works too
I can hear Green Needle or Brainstorm or Brain Needle or Greenstorm, but try as I might, I can't hear Apple Pie. Why is that?
"Apple Pie" isn't even close, so you can't hear it.
Try playing it several times, and putting the cursor on a point in the timeline.
The R in "gReen needle" and the first R in "bRainstorm" occur at the same moment.
The moment when the pitch is highest is in the second EE in "green nEEdle" and the S in "brainStorm".
Phonetically, EE and S have nothing in common: the former is a long vowel; the latter is an unvoiced sibilant consonant. But phonetics are not actually an attribute of sound; they are an attribute of the shapes of our mouths when we speak.
Pitch is an attribute of sound, and if you play it over and over, the moment of the highest pitch does not change.
