Does somebody belch in Styx's "Lady"?

As a Styx fan, your question intrigued me so I went and grabbed my iPod to take a listen. My initial thought was either bass guitar or drums, and since I wasn't sure, I set my brother (also a huge Styx fan) to task on figuring it out. He isolated the section of the song you questioned and listened and listened and listened and listened. He came to the conclusion that it was either the kick drum or tom tom, and he came to this conclusion by listening to other versions (Lady '95 and live versions) to figure out which instrument transitions were happening in the song at that point for comparison.

NO! I've listened to the song numerous times, but as a refresher, listened again after seeing your question, and the sound you mention is from an electric synthesizer/guitar. I suppose though, if you plant that idea into most anyone's head, they can be made to think a 'belching' sound is what is made. Nice try though.

It's not a belch, it sounds like a Korg or a Moog synthesizer.

But, great thanks for ruining the song for me, now every time I hear it from now on, I'll think about someone belching.

Eccelliente...........Smiling on the out area crying on the interior, Sorrow and excitement do walk hand in hand, "severe the discomfort of kid and superstar at beginning" a astounding line as is the completed of this pen. Bravo! supply us extra of this you.
