I searched the archives for this title thread but after 10 pages couldn't find anything.
I know we've talked about this song and how Richard corrected the damage on the master tape on the intro by replacing Karen's with his own.
But I was wondering if anyone else thinks Karen's vocals on this track sound so silky, maybe that's not the right words but I think one of the reasons why I love this track so much is the smooth delivery by Karen, it's hard to describe but it's almost effortless by her.
What am I looking to describe this? It's like when she first says, "Said the little lamb to the shepherd boy.." It's like, if you could touch these words it would be like silk to the touch.
I'd also like to get your opinions on:
Do you think the single 45 version of this is rare? Also why do you think Richard picked this track for the 45 single to back Little Altar Boy?
It was the choir that was damaged on the first part of this song since Richard is using the choir on the 2nd part again on the first part, why didn't Richard just extract the entire choir off the whole track & leave Karen's first part & then maybe just re-do the whole choir again. Maybe this was impossible? Due to Karen's vocal being attached to the choir on the original tape? I've never understood that part.
