I could be completely wrong and Mick's lyrics and his (and Lisa and Cindy's) vocals may be the only new elements apart from the strings. The piano sounded more "new" than vintage to me which was why I questioned it. I'm not sure a mellotron was used (I rather doubt it) since David Campbell is credited on the album for strings. Same gentleman who arranged strings for "Out of Tears."
David Campbell is Beck Hansen’s dad. Matt Clifford could have processed the piano digitally, and altered the timing, making it sound less vintage and less Nicky.
Thank you. That would make sense to the alleged Matt "enhanced" the piano so Mick could find a melody to build the song on rather than the overdub I concluded the statement to mean. Didn't know that about David Campbell. Interesting.
