At the beginning of Nostalgic Pushead

Who is it who makes the weird noise and then counts before the song starts?

Remember this being discussed before. Pretty sure it was either Richey or Nicky but not 100 % sure.

I'm 99% sure it's Nicky. Doesn't sound like Richey.

I say it's James taking the piss out of the two faced insincere people they've met and it sounds also like him doing the countdown.

I've always thought it was Nicky laughing, but James counting...

Just listened to the intro and for me it's either Nicky or Richey, doesn't sound like James to me!

Not sure Jimmi. Doesn't really sound like James to me but could be wrong!

I've pretty much convinced myself that it's James that does the count in.

It's definitely Nicky laughing, the count though, I'm not sure. It sounds a lot like Richey at first, but then it begins to sound like James around the '7, 8' bit.

Tbh, I never really paid attention to the intro before or who does what. Sorry I wasn't much help as a result.

I'm pretty sure that Nicky is the one who's laughing and James is counting.
