Does Kylie Minogue do the vocals at the end?

- Gabriel · 10-08-2009, 01:22 AM

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.

Twisted mind · 10-08-2009, 01:42 AM

Where exactly do you guys hear a female voice?

Tnspieler1012 · 10-08-2009, 03:09 AM

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

anniea89 · 10-08-2009, 09:20 AM

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?

anniea89 · 11-08-2009, 10:36 AM

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. (:

anniea89 · 11-08-2009, 01:04 PM

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.

noonsun · 11-08-2009, 08:11 PM

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.

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

In the end of the song.

coldplayisawesome · 09-01-2010, 04:05 PM

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

edit: nope, that doesn't make sense.

aarontennies · 24-07-2010, 07:39 AM

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!
