Title: Vocals on "It's Over Now"
Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on November 10, 2006, 11:36:23 PM
For a long time I thought that Carl and Brian were the only leads on this song. I believe Carl sings the verses and the chorus up to "Shades of blue..." which Brian sings. I always asumed it was Carl singing the "Heaven..." bridge. However, it didn't quite sound right. I believe that if my ears tell me correctly that it is actually Marilyn Wilson on the bridge. Does anybody know for sure? If it is Marilyn, its amazing how well she blends with Brian and Carl!

It's Marilyn. For whatever reason (from incorrect sampling rates during digital transfers, through tape slippage to his being sh*t-faced), Carl's vocal is more than a little off on this one.

Many of his vocals from the same period sound similar , esp. the other Adult Child songs.
