At the end of the song, before Chris sings a line from the chorus for the final time, there is a very noticeable female vocal part. After hearing Lhuna, I suddenly wondered if this vocalist was actually Kylie Minogue, because it sounds a lot like her voice (granted, the only performance of hers I've heard is her part in Lhuna). I haven't heard any information so much as acknowledging that those vocals are there, much less who performed them, and it made sense to me that maybe they asked Kylie to provide a quick vocal part for the song while she was in the studio recording her part for Lhuna. Any word on this? Does it make sense to anybody else?

I forgot who but its another woman somehow associated with the band. Not Kylie.

Where exactly do you guys hear a female voice? :stunned:

I honestly don't, but there was a thread, or oracle post about it last year...

There's a female singing in the track, I believe it is Emily Bart-Smith.

Wow! Thank you for a very precise and concise answer. I must say, I really thought it was Kylie. Where did you learn this?

I'm pretty sure it says it on the cd back over. That and I think someone asked the Oracle.

 

Not a problem though :)

It says it in the Prospekt's March little CD sleeve: (well, something along the lines of)

 

"Additional vocals on 'Rainy Day' by Emily Bart-Smith"

 

By the way, I always thought it was Chris singing that bit. But after a few listens, I concluded it is very much a female voice. (:

Speaking of, the way RD ends with the female voice reminds me of the ending of Lhuna, how they both use female vocals 'oohing'. Thought that was interesting.

That's a woman??

 

I assumed Chris had gotten his ridiculously high feminine falsetto powers back. Huh. :/

You make it sound like a super-power. :nice:

 

'Ridiculously-High-Feminine-Falsetto-Man saves the day again!'

Wait, what part?!

I knew that there was a female singer but what part does she sing?

In the end of the song.

i thought it was both Chris and that other lady singing the oohs. :thinking:

edit: nope, that doesn't make sense. :P

Whoah. I just listened to Rainy Day, and there is a female vocalist singing at the end with Chris. I need this Emily Bart-Smith for my band! Even though the vocals are kind of overlayed, it sounds like she has an amazing voice!
