Curunir 7,510 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 So apparently there's saxophone on three songs off the album: ROM, Enigma and Babylon It's pretty obvious on Enigma and Babylon, but where is it exactly in ROM? Is it the noise right at the beginning before I DIDN'T ASK FOR A FREE RIDE? If not, then where? And if this question has already been asked and answered, my apologies Spoiler I might or might not have just gotten my life to Chromatica while stoned, or maybe those are just rumors. The point is we need answers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CautiousLurker 19,354 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Idk where that Saxophone is, but... it took 8 people to write Rain on Me? Mind you, I love the song, I bop to it when I fall asleep, I bop to it when I wake, but still... 8 people It's a joke! When you give me that look, it's a joke!

Quartz 12,535 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 It could very well be the beginning. Doesn't sound like a traditional saxophone but I would assume they put the sound under a ton of tuning and effects. Inside, we are really made the same. 🕊 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any of those people could've given her one line that she later tweaked, or a single word, and she'd give them a credit I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin.

hELXIG 43,031 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 I'm also thinking it's the opening sound, but they've edited it/chopped it together. Funny that she gets credited for a couple notes! Maybe saxophone was initially a bigger part of the song but they cut it, but still used it in the intro, so still gave her the credit? We'll never know! I'll be myself until they fūcking close the coffin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
