Who sings the 3rd verse in The Goldrush?

Featured Replies

First one is Will, then the second one is Chris.

 

Is the third one Guy? Havn't heard his singing voice solo before, but it sounds nice if it is him.

 

 

I'm talking about the part at like 1:20 in.

 

 

I asked the Oracle... does anyone have the LIT single in which it might give vocal credits? But I'm sure Jonny probably sings in the back too so I dont know.

    I'm so excited they're talking about this song recently. Here's hoping they'll think about adding it to a live song set-list.❤️

    Yesss, I love this song. It's really great, they should play it on a B or C stage one day at least!

Yeah I think it's Guy. My sister once played that part over and over and we realized that it definitely sounds like Guy. She asked the Oracle about it too, but don't think that she ever got an answer.

Yeah, def not Jonny.

 

So I guess that only leaves guy.

 

Unless it's someone totally random like Brian Eno.

But, why would Eno be singing on their track? Aside from the obvious. I just find that odd.

 

Maybe Jonny and Guy were too shy to do solos.

:thinking:

 

I know Eno is the voice at the start of Strawberry Swing, not too sure about the Goldrush.

Honestly I've never really thought about it before, but I just listened to it again and I agree, I do think it's Guy! :P Something about the way "prospektor had been told" is pronounced... Does it not sound like his Scottish/British accent? :laugh3:

mmm guy is so hot...oh, im sorry what were we talking about?

Well I thought it was Guy cause it really sounds like his accent but someone here once said it was Eno.I'm not entirely convinced cause that voice sounds more like Guy to me, especially the way he says "mountain".But well.I would love to know though cause I like that song.One of my fave b-sides.I like all the different voices

I have no idea. It sounds like a young voice so probably is Guy.

Huh. I always just thought it was all Chris after Will's part but now that you mention it maybe it is Guy...

mmm guy is so hot...oh, im sorry what were we talking about?

 

:lol::lol:

 

anyways, at first i thought it was Guy, then i thought it was Jonny, then someone said it was Brian (i hope not) and i still think it sounds like Jonny especially on the "i went down to the valley, over by the mountain" part. especially when he says the words "valley" and "mountain."

i listened to it over and over and i think it sounds like Jonny. yet at the same time i really hope it was Guy :heart:

i want him to sing.

for anyone who wants to try to compare it with Guy's singing to see if it's him, here's an example of it:

start at 2:10

im pretty sure Guy is the only one singing backup

No no, it can't be Jonny. He can't sing that well. :P

 

Plus it's not his voice if you listen to Don't Panic.

 

idk idk.

 

 

PS... if it was Eno, he should get credit in the LITii single bookle right?

i hope it wasnt brian. he's amazing and all but....y'know. :\

Well I believe Eno does play some instruments on some of the Viva album tracks, so it very well could be.

 

 

I still kind of think it's Guy though.

yah i think so too (about eno)

but i think it's a little invasive for him to be singing in the songs they release.

just my opinion. :\

 

i hope it's Guy.

Does the vinyl even come with a booklet/sheet? (It's the only one with The Goldrush)

 

Heard before that it's Eno, but I don't think it was solid word.

Hmm... let's hope the Oracle answers it.
