Break Away Vocals

I'm new around here, and I've gotta say it's amazing finding my way into communities like this that have been around so long with so much valuable information about the things that I love.
On to the question, does anyone have a definitive answer as to how many voices are on Break Away? I'm trying to transcribe the vocals so I can record them, but I always have trouble figuring out if I'm hearing another vocal part or just hearing things. Thank you so much!

That's through doubling and unison, anyway. There are 16 unique vocal parts in the tag over three layers. Most of the rest of the song veers between 5 and 6 parts at any given time, sometimes down to 4, and the second bridge again has three layers of different group arrangements. The vocal stack rarely stays the same from section to section because it was worked out and overdubbed in pieces. Brian, Carl, Dennis, Mike, Al, Bruce, and Murry all sing on it.

Still 10 voices short of Spem in Alium.

The transcription artist's curse.
