Something Fun: Guess the soloists competition...

bar · Post by **bar** » 15 years ago

I'm really starting to say Panis Angelicus is Stephan.

There's really only 2 possibilities for that IMHO: Liam or Stefan. They have very similar voices - lighter, airier notes that seem to "float" up the register.

2 years ago I would've said 100% Liam, but I have to say Stefan simply because I seriously doubt Liam can sing that high anymore.

Stefan's voice is very similar to Jaymi Bandtock's rendition of Panis Angelicus. Very, very similar.

My guesses for Panis Angelicus would be Stefan, James T or Flynn.

We should tally up the votes on this thread just for
fun.

OH GAWDDD!!!!! it's out already, awesome Dani!!!!
TOM CULLY??? seriously???

and the mysterious soloist in The Fountain is RALPH!!
i'm too surprised with Tom's appearance as a soloist, apparently someone's right about Ave Virgo was recorded before Tom's voice broke.

Yep somebody posted that list as album is out in Germany. Yep that Ave Virgo must of been reocrded for New Dawn or something and held back.

But looks like with Stefan the future is bright as he sings on 2 of my fav songs.

so agree with this! and as someone has predicted, no Liam.. no Kavana as well, turns out to be mini-James in Touch the sky.

argh! but at least we got the booklet

yeah there's no Ed but the fact that he's still singing with libera makes me quite relieved..

No Ed's solo..
Tom Cully is the soloist for Ave Virgo is really a big surprise though

dani · Post by **dani** » 15 years ago

Yep still shocked its Tom as to me it sounded like Ed and as we can see i am pretty good with the boys voices.

~humble pie in hand~

Err, so despite my complete ripping apart of people who posted Tom C as the man for Ave Virgo it is Master Culley indeed. My apologies to one and all.

Obviously it was a track recorded some time in the past and I wonder if the absence of Ed means that he too has joined the back row?

Oh, and Bayan Ko too

Glad I didn't pay for the download on iTunes.

Wow, the soloist list surprised me! I love Ralph's solo on "The Fountain" and I was definitely not expecting it. I was also surprised by Daniel's solos, and I'm thrilled to hear Jakob's a soloist. I was also surprised that there was no solos by Ed, and I didn't recognize Ben's voice on "Lacrymosa" that much, probably since it's so changed from the 2007 recording. But wow, amazing! My soloist predictions were pretty far off, ha ha. I think the only correct one was Mini-James on "Touch the Sky".

dani · Post by **dani** » 15 years ago

It was always Ben on Lacrymosa , there was never any doubt on that 1.

And Yorkie quite a few of us was conviced it was Ed so you was no different, i will mock you on Kavana tho as you was banging on about that being him haha.

Tom on Ave Virgo??? HAHA I KNEW IT SOUNDED LIKE HIM. XD

well, i'm totally bummed though. Ed didn't get any solos. i'm going to have to start picking a new "favorite" soon!

i think Stefan's voice is starting to grow on me. i thought it was a bit shrill at the Crystal Cathedral, but after hearing him on How Shall I Sing, i might have to change my mind about that. his timbre is similar to Ed's, in a way...it has that same soothing quality. and the distinctive enunciation. lol.

OH, and it's RALPH on The Fountain? WHAT. he has amazing range! i seriously thought that was Liam, and a mature Liam at that (hey, if Tom got a solo, why not him? haha). but really. wow.

libera36 · Post by **libera36** » 15 years ago

Well, I called that one being Tom.

There was no way its wasn't. Otherwise.... I completely failed.

I'm sad not to see any Liam or Ed, though.

On the other hand: these solos are amazing!!!!! Why haven't we heard any of these soloists before?
