Steven Wilson singing on Bleak?

[Child of Time]

I remember I read an interwiew with a member of Opeth somewhere at this site and he says that Steven Wilson is singing lead on "Bleak". Have I dreamt that I have read this?

If not, someone must tell me exactly when he's singing, 'cause I've listened to that damned song lots of times, but I've never heard there's two singers. (maybe there is'nt, maybe Wilson is singing all the time, but then - why do I not hear ANY difference between the voice at that song and any other at Blackwater Park?)

Probably I'm deaf.

I think it start on "Devious movements in your eyes" but they interchange and sing together a bit. Steve's voice is quite a bit higher and thinner sounding.

I also swear he sings some harmonies in Drapery and Harvest. Like, listen to the Harvest choruses, and the "Waking up to your sound again" part in Drapery.

He also plays some guitars and piano on BWP.

Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree are awesome.

Yes, he is singing that "Waking up to your sound again"-part in The Drapery Falls. He sound more english than Åkerfeldt, if you know what I mean.

"Devious movements in your eyes
Moved me from relief
Breath comes out white clouds with your lies
And filters through me

You’re close to the final word
You’re staring right past me in dismay
A liquid seeps from your chest
And drains me away"

Yeah, he plays the little solo in Bleak, and plays the piano on Leper Affinity and Patterns in the Ivy.

Does he play that sweeping spacey high third guitar sound that is speckled through the album?

No, that's just overlayed e-bow stuff, that's all over Still Life too. I think all Steve Wilson did is the thing at 5:20 in Bleak.

No thats becoming a new opeth style and I like it. It is there on Still Life but not as much.
