The Voice in Harry's head part II

Ok, let me try and get this all straight as to what I was referring 
to when I said Harry heard voices in his head.


I was not referring to the following scene in PS/SS (which I firmly 
believe is Voldemort):

P130 "Perhaps Harry had eaten a bit too much, because he had a very 
strange dream.  He was wearing Professor Quirrell's turban, which 
kept talking to him, telling him he must transfer to Slytherin at 
once, because it was his destiny.  Harry told the turban he didn't 
want to be in Slytherin; it got heavier and heavier; he tried to pull 
it off but it tightened painfully –and there was Malfoy, laughing at 
him as he struggled with it – then Malfoy turned into the hook-nosed 
teacher, Snape, whose laugh became high and cold – there was a burst 
of green light and Harry woke, sweating and shaking."

The initial reference I was referring to is from GoF:

P231 "Why though?  Another voice has awoken in the back of his 
brain.  Stupid thing to do, really, said the voice." *snip* "No, I 
don't think I will, thanks, said the other voice, a little more 
firmly . . . no, I don't really want to . . ."

And again, it helps him with Voldemort . . .
P661 "I asked you whether you want me to do that again," said 
Voldemort softly.  "Answer me! IMPERIO!"
And Harry felt, for the third time in his life, the sensation that 
his mind had been wiped of all thought. . . .  Ah, it was bliss, not 
to think, it was as though he were floating, dreaming . . . just 
answer no . . . say no . . . just answer no . . .
I will not, said a stronger voice, in the back of his head, I won't 
answer . . . .
Just answer no . . . .
I won't do it, I won't say it . . . .
Just answer no . . . ."


Ok, then of course, the most interesting reference to the voice . . . 
GOF P664:

"And then an unearthly and beautiful sound filled the air. . . .  It 
was coming from every thread of the light-spun web vibrating around 
Harry and Voldemort.  It was a sound Harry recognized, though he had 
heard it only once before in his life:  phoenix song. 
It was the sound of hope to Harry . . . the most beautiful and 
welcome thing he had ever heard in his life. . . .  He felt as though 
the song were inside him instead of just around him. . . . It was the 
sound he connected with Dumbledore, and it was almost as though a 
friend were speaking in his ear. . . . 
Don't break the connection.
I know, Harry told the music, I know I mustn't."

Now except for the Phoenix song, Harry doesn't hear any more about 
not breaking the connection for over a page, until Cedric comes out 
of the wand.  And when he finally gets back to the tournament 
grounds, Dumbledore does not want him to leave with anyone.  Almost 
as if he were there on the grounds with Harry and had heard 
everything already said.  

In COS, Riddle knows that Dumbledore sent Harry Fawkes and the 
sorting hat.  Dumbledore states that as long as Harry is true to him, 
help will be available.  In fact, why would they mention: COS p 
319: "Help me – help me –Harry thought, his eyes screwed tight under 
the hat.  Please help me –
There was no answering voice.  Instead, the hat contracted, as though 
an invisible hand was squeezing it very tightly."

Now maybe you think this was referring to the answering of the hat.  
But it seems to me that Harry has heard these voices that help him 
through things before, but I don't have time to look them all up.  
But here they are for you to mull over and tell me again what you 
think :o)
