I think there is a difference between the "highness" of Plant's
voice and that of Michael Jackson. Plant's voice is only high when
he is singing falsetto (which he did quite often) -- his speaking
voice is quite "normal", as it is in certain songs in which
he does not use his falsetto, such as "Going To California".
Jackson's voice, on the other hand, appears to be high at all
times, something over which he seems to have no voluntary
control. As I understand it, hormone injections of some
kind have something to do with the pitch of his voice.
As for highness of voice indicating homosexuality, I don't
think there is any necessary correlation between the two.
I think that homosexuality is more often associatable with
effeminacy (although this is not always a good indicator
either). I don't think Robert Plant is physically effeminate.
I do think Michael Jackson is physically effeminate. (This
may have something to do with aforesaid "hormone injections".)
Whether or not either is gay cannot be derived from these data,
however.
