indy4 155 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Cool! I'll be watching out for this CD. And cool to see Seth MacFarlane contributing some vocals. Is that MGM Overture a new composition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 1,059 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 This made me laugh. My sister and I used to love taking our story LP's and playing them at a 45's setting. My favorite one to do it to was The Empire Strikes Back story album. I also loved to play Horner's Star Trek II, the Battle In the Mutara Nebula is hilarious at a faster pace.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s9UECtNLe_U Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wojo 2,453 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 So do it! Sheesh, I don't own the DVD, don't want to take the time to do it, and certainly can think of better things to do with the bandwidth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omen II 1,235 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 Cool! I'll be watching out for this CD. And cool to see Seth MacFarlane contributing some vocals. Is that MGM Overture a new composition?The MGM Jubilee Overture was actually written / arranged for the 30th anniversary of Metro Goldwyn Mayer back in 1954. I cannot remember for definite who arranged it, but I think it was probably Conrad Salinger or one of his ilk. Indeed, I have posted below a wonderful (if I say so myself) clip of Johnny Green conducting the original version back in 1954, before MGM threw out all their music in the 1960's! John Wilson has essentially reconstructed most of this music from surviving conductor scores or by ear, a phenomenal achievement. If you do get the CD, indy4, I recommend the 'luxury' version which will include a bonus DVD and looks like it will not cost much more than the regular version.Judging by your avatar, you would have enjoyed the MGM Proms concert a couple of years ago, featuring John Wilson and his orchestra. Seth MacFarlane was one of the singers and during the encore (a performance of the song That's Entertainment) sang a couple of the lines in Stewie's voice! A DVD is available if you cannot find it on YouTube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uni 306 Posted July 20, 2011 Share Posted July 20, 2011 Haven't seen these in this thread so far, so I'm hoping this isn't a repeat. . . .This entire series is hilarious, but I'll stick to posting the two most relevant to this website: If you like these, be sure to check out Einstein vs. Stephen Hawking (the funniest), and Napoleon vs. Napoleon.

Wojo 2,453 Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I've never hear of PowerGlove before -- an American power metal band that covers classic video game themes -- but their performance of Batman is almost legendary. Can't say I'm as interested in the video itself, but fortunately the video didn't ruin the song with sound effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melange 446 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Personally I hope the the Beeb never changes their current news music. It is a 'done' deal now.Another great one is Al Jazeera English. I hear this a lot (understandably) when in the middle east. Below is one variation that includes that mellow chord change at 0:14 I love, as the visuals continue to glide. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sck1R7T4GVEAnd from 0:11 onwards on the video below is a beautiful graceful merging of music and visuals.
