Wayne Gray Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 Heard this one on Wave of Good Noise YouTube station. I like it. Good for writing.
MrM Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 (edited) Goodbye - Ulrich Schnauss (Memories of Tristan) Heaven Help take me back To the dream-world Life has been just once Answer my prayer Take away all the fear And let me fall asleep Let me fall asleep Fall asleep You know You'll have to let it go Don't cry So hard to say goodbye He will never return Never again be part of what was once Felt so secure Just adored But it is getting oh so cold It is getting cold Getting cold You know You'll have to let it go Don't cry So hard to say goodbye So hard to say goodbye You'll have to let it go So hard to say goodbye It's all over He said ~~~ Edited April 9, 2019 by MrM
Page Scrawler Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 @Comicality Just a thought: What if Ruel made a cover of Aerosmith's "Dream On"? 1
Cris L Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 Jesus! I just popped into this topic, and after less than 2 pages, can I say if I never ever see or hear the name Oscar Stembridge again it will be a total blessing. 2
Former Member Posted April 20, 2019 Posted April 20, 2019 I watched a video of Robbie Williams covering Bohemian Rhapsody live. He cheated by including most of the Queen harmony section as a video. But he doesn't seem to have the range to sing many of the high parts of the song. I'd have to judge his attempt as a huge fail! You'd think he would have used backup singers to replicate the harmonies that are such a big part of the song. I always thought he was theatrical (in a good way), but in the video he comes off as amateurish when he waves ‘goodbye’ in the middle of the song. I'm sure there were other Queen songs he could have chosen that would have made a much better tribute to Freddie Mercury. (He could have used images of his own exposed ‘bum’ to accompany Fat Bottom Girls, for example.) ;–)

I try not to repeat the same videos over and over, but he's the only artist I follow on Youtube who posts "new content" with any regularity. I should check my notification settings.

Former Member Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 Seems like everyone is jumping n the bandwagon…

You know, back when the first complaint about Oscar popped up, Page restrained himself from linking to Oscar's version of The Joker… ;–)

I'm sure part of it is that his fingers and hands struggle with adult-sized instruments and that he'll grow into a better musician. Spoiler I'm not as big a fan of Oscar Stembridge as Page Scrawler is. ;–)
Former Member Posted April 21, 2019 Posted April 21, 2019 I just wish they had been able to use a mixing board to adjust the volume of the trumpets in a few places to emphasize the vocals more.

Declan's voice gets "buried" under the instruments and back-up singers towards the end...but it still shows the power of his voice. 1

I was listening to different Mariachi version of Bohemian Rhapsody (with male voices) and I was amused to notice the same sorts of Spanish-accent pronunciations as I hear from my Mexican, Salvadoran, and Guatamalan neighbors. When I worked in department stores, I'd get used to hearing Chinese-influenced and Tagalog-influenced English too. I remember one woman from China who would page people to the ‘Men Department’ or the ‘Shoes Department’ (there were several separate women's departments in that store). ;–)
Page Scrawler Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 (edited) Okay. This one's more substantial, not just a song that's been covered to death. @droughtquake I know what you're going to say. Kindly keep it to yourself. Edited April 22, 2019 by Page Scrawler 1
Wayne Gray Posted April 22, 2019 Posted April 22, 2019 This guy is completely new to me, but I love his sound.
