Anyone know who the vocalist for Hixxy's Sacrifice is? Can't find any information on it anywhere.
Also, are the lyrics original?

Thanks very much for the info. Lucy Westhead seems like a decent candidate, but I can see that she did vocals for Hixxy in the later years (2010+) but can't find any trace of her around the 05-06 era which is presumably around the time when Sacrifice was produced.
My initial instinct was the initial Raver Baby vocalist, Elaine, but it just doesn't sound like her, and I don't think she did anymore vocals for Raver Baby around the time of Sacrifice.

Jaimes' listed as a credit on the song on Clubland Xtreme Hardcore 3... at least it looks like Jaimes on the blury Discogs image

Great catch on the CXH3 and True Hardcore credits, had missed that.
Thanks very much for the confirmation!

Discogs credits Jaimes as the vocalist. Unless this was something you'd added since?

Yea I added that. Although it may have to be removed at some stage. Apparently there's a Discogs rule whereby credits cannot be shared across releases (i.e. Jaimes isn't credited on the vinyl release, even though she is on True Hardcore). Although I understand the need for the rule, I disagree with it in its totality. Single releases should be able to have as much details as possible, even details not present on the physical release itself, although what defines a single...
Anyway, I had another question unrelated to Discogs for those who know this kind of thing: what determines whether producers explicitly credit vocalists? Does it have to do with compensation? i.e. whether the producer pays for the vocals, but the vocalist has no royalty rights to the track?
Or is it more to do with the involvement of the vocalist? i.e. whether the vocalist is heavily involved in the writing of a track
