I was trying to figure out which parts were which singer, and I’m not entirely sure. I think they sound so similar! Have you listened to Jakob’s (as The Death Chat) song Lost at Sea? He sounds SO MUCH like Billie in that one! 

They sound soooo similar, I was doing my dishes when I listened to it for the first time, and didn’t even realize Jakob was singing too, I thought he just did the guitar. I figured Billie really brought out that deep voice from his youth.
 

Only on he second listen I realized there were 2 voices on the track lol

I admit I‘ve never quite understood the Joey „scandal“. The girl was 16 and he was 6 years older. Some girls that age are quite mature. As I can’t know anything more about their relationship I think it wouldn’t be fair to pass judgment from the „outside“ perspective.

I don’t think 16y years olds are mature, but neither are 22 years olds. Now, at 28, looking back, I see more similarities between my 22yo self and my 16yo self than between my 28yo self now and my 22yo self.

Just noticed Jillie Bow Legweak changed his spotify profile pic.

I had an ex who when he was 22 and started dating someone who was 16. Everyone around me, including myself, thought it was weird and kind of disgusting. If they'd been ten years older I wouldn't think that much of it though.

What a wild thing to say. Nothing proves that David Bowie ever slept with underaged girls. He specifically refused to kiss Jennifer Connelly in Labyrinth because of her age, and he had a long string of girlfriends and boyfriends and all of them were full grown adults. Predators don’t sleep with children once and then start dating adults, it’s a repetitive and recognizable pattern.

And bringing up the Joey scandal is completely unnecessary, but so is comparing a 22yo kid, dating a 16yo younger kid to a full grown adult grooming a child.

Bowie sleeping with the 14 year old groupie has long been proven 

or are we doing the we only believe the victim if she mentions someone we don’t like was the one? 
 

and comparing a 22 year old being with a 16 year old and a 26 year old with a 14 year old is the same thing

So I guess you boycott every classic rock artist and group from the 70’s then because literally every band from The Rolling Stones to The Who to Led Zeppelin and anyone else you could name considered teenage groupies to be a rock star perk.

Where have I said boycott? Just said it’s a weird optic to chose someone who slept with a underage groupie when his oldest had a similar situation happen hell I didn’t even call Bowie a pedo

It doesn't matter if a 16 year old is mature, they're still legally a child and a 22 year old shouldn't be involved with someone that young

Listened a couple more times and I feel fairly confident about who is singing what now.  Voices are so similar, but Jacob’s pronunciations are a little different. 

First refrain and chorus - Billie 

Verse 1 and second chorus - Jacob 

Verse 2, refrain, third chorus - Billie

Verse 3, fourth chorus - Jacob

Bridge - both?

Last chorus and outro - Billie

In Germany it’s legally allowed to have sex with someone of the age 14 and older if it’s consensual.

I don’t want to say that I would approve of that but the Joey „affair“ wouldn’t be a thing here.

I think you’ve hit the nail on the head here, we all have different laws with different age limits.  Sixteen is the age of consent here so I have never got involved in these discussions. It’s largely the culture you are used to.

Anyway, Jakob says they shared it YT tube says Billie is lead, a press review (now lost in among many, can’t remember which) says Billie is lead….either way, it sounds great. They certainly compliment each other, that genetic connection wins every time.

This is what I wanted to say but couldn’t really express it in English. Thank you!

It’s the same point whether it’s you who judge musicians that way or him if he did that The Coverups would have no one to cover. He’s not going to select songs that way when it was a thing across the board back then it’s silly.  This has nothing to do with Joey.

I think you could be right, especially about Jakob’s delivery early on.
