OT - Pinky

[LA Lady]

Hey, just figured I'd say hi on the boards. Takes too long for you to check PM's sometimes. ;) LOL!

[LA Lady]

And yes, I'm the impatient sort. ;)

[pinky]

LMAO!!!

Hi, Mel! I was just listening to Willy singing She Bang again....I'll check out the remix tomorrow (later today, actually).

I love the fact that there's a site dedicated to him!

[LA Lady]

I know, isn't it the cutest, Pinky?

Hey, speaking of music, I have 2 questions for ya -

1) Do you like the Beatles?

2) Do you like Peter Gabriel?

:) Random yes but I have a point.

[pinky]

Are you kidding me?????


I was just on the BSB board, in a discussion about who is more musically talented...BSB or the Beatles. As if it's even an issue!!!!

I absolutely LOVE the Beatles! I was fortunate enough to see them live twice, in '64 and '66.

Peter Gabriel is very good. I'm not a real great fan of his, but I do like his stuff.

Why all the randomness?

[LA Lady]

There's a song I want you to hear. A remake of Eleanor Rigby. It's got a real Peter Gabriel vibe to it, though.

I'm totally digging it - so much so that I can't stop listening to it, actually, lol. Just something I dug up and I'm loving it.

If you have time, take a listen. I am sitting here jamming out, with my headphones on so I can blast it.

[LA Lady]

LOL and NO he's NOT one of my artists, so it's not a shameless plug. LOL! ;)

[pinky]

Well, I'm at work now, so I'll listen later when I get home.

I love Eleanor Rigby! I think it's one of the most complex songs they ever did. I can't even imagine it done any other way, so I'm really interested to see what this guy has done with it.

[LA Lady]

Now I'm quite interested, because (sorry) I don't know the original. Though I'm going to dig it up now. 99 times out of 100 the original is clearly better... but I hope he did it justice.

Without having heard the original, I dig it a lot. We'll see how I feel afterwards. :)

[pinky]

Well, although I truly love the original, this is pretty good.....a very contemporary twist on it.

Personally, I like the Beatles' arrangement much better. That may be due to the fact that it's the only one I've known for, oh, 35+ years!

I'll say this: I think John Lennon would like this a LOT! :wink:

[LA Lady]

I have to dig up the original now. I think Jenn has some Beatles CD's... so I'll check it out. :)

[pinky]

It's on Revolver (one of the very best Beatles' albums, IMO, along with Rubber Soul), and also on Anthology 2.

[LA Lady]

I dig the original. No surprise. It's typical Beatles fashion. :) And I dig the Beatles. ;)
