Brown Eyes
Was listening with car audio and noticed Lindsey's vocals throughout this track (panned to the left).
I always thought of Brown Eyes as a 100% Chris vocal, perhaps with some harmonies from the others on the chorus (but even then mostly layers of Chris).
But I think Lindsey is there all throughout the verses, doing those soft and sibilant background vocals that particularly become prominent later on in Tango and Say You Will. It's not a harmony -- it's the same melody notes as the lead vocal, just augmenting it in a way that's almost indistuingushable from the lead singer unless you're very familiar with how each of them sound.
Exhibit A for the jury:
The biggest give-away is at the line "What do you want to say." You can detect Lindsey's falsetto wavering/breaking. He does a great impression of the girls but even his falsetto has its limits.
Or is this already covered (or disproved) in Ken's book?
I haven't read it.
