Those Mysteries. The Louvre. The Lady Is Lingering. Sherlock Holmes. Whippings and Apologies. <-----It would be pretty amazing if they could pull this one off. --Previous Message-- : The song I wanted to hear the most is Let's : Get Funky. Although it does seem highly : unlikely they will choose that song in the : extended repertoire after they play Kimono. : : It already has one the great diabolical riff : driving the song and I could imagine the : intensity would be amplified with an : orchestra backing it. In fact the song seems : made for the orchestra. I could easily hear : strings, flutes and horn blaring those : instrumental parts. : : Hell I wouldn't mind an orchestrated version : of the entire MTYCDT album. The songs have a : thick enough arrangement to translate well : orchestrated. : : Other songs I would like to hear : Never turn your back on Mother Earth - it : has a mellotron and harpsichord and so it's : half way there : : Rosebud - orchestra could bring out the : mournful aspect of the song : : Number one song in heaven - if lil Beethoven : symbolises orchestrated techno music. : Perhaps they should it bring it further and : make an orchestrated arrangement out of a : lot of their dance pop songs. Certainly the : first half can easily be done due to it's : dreariness but I'm sure the techno-esque : second part of the song can be given a : lil-beethoven esque vibe. Similarly I like : to hear a Lil Beethoven version of tryouts , : the title track if MTYCDT : : Progress - cheesy synth strings swapped with : an orchestra : : So important - it's clear that I see the : whole Sparks plus orchestra as a brilliant : way to de-eightify their back catalogue. I : certainly would like to hear the songs of : Interior design heard in a different context : : Moon over Kentucky - imagining "la la : la" section over horns in the : background. Orchestra can certainly bring : out the creepiness of the song : : Tits - I always imagine the bass opening the : song and the piano riff being played by a : string quartet so I think that would work : with a full orchestra. The orchestra and : easily bring out the desperation in the : chorus. : : : Slowboat - if anything I just want Sparks to : recognise the first album as it seems like : only people in the WRC recognised it as a : major album. Certainly the keyboard tingling : sound in the middle plus guitar solo could : work well in an orchestrated environment. : : Calm before the storm - it already have : horns there and it wouldn't take much to : fully orchestrate that song : : Thank god it's not Christmas - I have a lot : of difficulty imagining Kimono My house with : an orchestra with the exception of This Town : (because of the string version on : Plagiarism) and this song. Certainly the : most epic vive and most densely arranged : song in the album plus mellotron chorus : could be easily translated. The song I'm : interested in hearing the most in the : concert : : : : : : --Previous Message-- : That's cool i guess. but it's just one : performance so not like I'll ever get to : hear it unless they put out a live : album/video. : : : |
