Damn. I may not give a damn about politics, but he seems a genuine guy.


And who the hell covered it?

Dunno, was some female "soul" style singer...I seemed to be the only one in the store who recognised it and was oddled out by it

a soul singer? how weird...

Oh, wait. Hang on. I seem to recall talking to someone about it actually, and telling them it's a worse version because she doesn't go "And nothing else mattEERRRRRRRRRRSSSSSAAAAAHH!"

think i might go play gt4 some more

inabit lads

later OT. Imma play some EVE in a bit.

[QUOTE=Wiki on Nothing Else Matters]It was covered by the bands "Apocalyptica" and "Die Krupps" for tribute albums, and has also been covered by the Vienna Boys' Choir, Gregorian (a troupe of Gregorian chanters), Lucie Silvas (a British pop singer/songwriter), Bif Naked, the Angels of Venice, and Staind. The song was also covered in Italian by singer-songwriter Marco Masini, the song being titled "E chi se ne frega" (moderately vulgar Italian for "and who cares").[/QUOTE]

that reminds me of the s&m dvd when james sings that part and he is like speaking it instead of singing it all out lik ethe song. it kinda ruins it. it's like he was bored singing it...

the mattERRRRRSAAAH! is the most important part of that whole song.

:eek: I saw that once. It was awesome.

I might have been somewhat intoxicated at the time, though.

Greetings gentlemen.

Just got back from leeds.....realised how much I want to learn 'Home' by Dream Theater

hahaha, I'm playing DT songs at like twice the speed on media player, while keeping the pitch the same. It's f[COLOR="Black"]u[/COLOR]ckin hilarious.

Mop: Home is my fave DT song by far. I can play it all bar the solo.

Home was like the highlight of the show when I saw them. It was freakin sweet

The highlight of the DT show I went to which was actually Gigantour in Dallas was when they covered Cemetary Gates and Russell Allan, Scott Bell and Labrie did vocals and Mustaine came out and did the solo.

Oh man. You people need to do this.

Play Home in media player, get to the first verse, where Petrucci starts a'chuggin on the D, and select play -> play speed -> slow. Now listen when the held vocal harmonies come in over this obscenely slow riff.


lolcano.

I can get that great wah sound with my behringer hellbabe

srs, that wah kicks arse, It's just a cheap 535q but sounds like the sh[SIZE=2]it[/SIZE]

Do you know roughly what percent change in speed that is?

I don't really have windows media player (it appears to have deleted itself) but i can slow it down without changing pitch on audacity.

I;m having so much fun just messing with the speed.

I decided to play the song of my name, and set the play speed to fast, and it sounds like 20 x better.

eric johnson
 

hey i made a thread on this awhile ago....what do you guys think of eric johnson? have any of you seen him live? i am thinking about going to see him on the 11th of august...is it worth it? one guy told me to bring a pillow to the show...:lol:

Eric Johnson annoys me. His tone, I find horrific (aside from his cleans). It so horribly driven, at point it almost sounds synth-like.

And his playing style also annoys me, he just seems to stagger through everything playing it as stiffly as possibly, no cool smooth legato work to be seen. At least, as far as I've seen from him.

I love his style. The way he picks things sounds so solid and even and yet, every note punches out.

/plays In The Name Of God solo on 'fast'

Serious, the Home thing I said, you HAVE to try it. The vocals go on for like 10 seconds each time

wow,two VERY different opinions...

well i don't know if i am going yet,the tickets aren't on sell...can't even find how much they are...i checked up on the place it is going to be at (freebird live) and i looks like generally tickets aren't even above $20...

i just am bored...i haven't been to a concert in awhile and now i am really picky with music...ever since i pretty much stopped listening to a lot of metal...

now i am just listening to anything...everything from eric clapton to ry cooder...to bruce springsteen and queens of the stone age...

but yet blab blah...

i personally think EJ souns like weather channel music...so there you go...
