There's kind of a deal between the artist and listener isn't there? You trust some vocalists who are amazing storytelling vocalists to *also* do stunts. PSB's Heart is a good example maybe

I'd have to listen to that track again to see what you mean but it's amusing to think of Neil doing the main vocal, and the Chris interjecting with the h-h-h-heart beat bit.

That's what I meant really. And the Oh-ah-oh-oh thing. They re-re-process Neil loads and turn him into an instrument on most tracks but the only time I've ever gone, "eh?" is on the Introspective version of Always. Totally allowed the rest of the time

Hmm I'm not bothered if all the instruments are all overdubbed by the same person so I'm not bothered re backing vocals. But I do agree that in general if you're a band, use the band or you're cheating.

I like the human voice basically - let's hear the people. It's just easy contrast built into a group - someone will have a soft voice, someone will be a shouter, maybe someone can do weirdly low notes. Get them all in there.

Yeah it's definitely a good thing; I also like it when there's an alternate lead vocalist on the odd song
