i hope this isnt old or anything, but its really good. basically i guess this guy recorded the first guy, then played it for all the other people and they all added on to it. its really fucking good i highly recommend watching it. my grandma sent the link to my brother and she said "Spencer - this is kind of fun and toe-tapping!", and she is right.
gabe out

this was rad. thanks for sharing

wow this is an awful topic.
you realize there's a youtube one RIGHT THERE for what you're listening to.
jesus christ man I feel bad for calling you out in particular but man this forum is bad.
edit: like as neat as this and the gimmick and everything your topic sucks dude. this isn't 9/11 and while this isn't the strictest forum some fucking effort. it's not like youtube didn't launch their own huge version of this like last month or that there isn't something to talk about in regards to collaborative video efforts via strangers and everything but no MY GRAMMA SENT ME A LINK I THOUGHT IT WAS NEAT???
-
and if nothing else i'm really confused why it's filmed like a pseudo-busking experiment when everyone is clearly using very nice equipment to record.
We Are The World was shot in front of a live Madrid audience for no reason???
-
because it's a music video you dummy. i think they just wanted it to feel natural
-
also, this wasn't an internet collaboration. i'm pretty sure the recording team traveled to each of these places to put it together. i think many of these artists are somewhat poor and the equipment was provided for them, and it's meant to also show the local flavor of the locations where these people are playing.

i honestly don't get why this information is necessary to understand their choice of location though
-
the youtube ones really blow. I'll link a recent one if I can find it, it was horrible. there's a pork and beans element in there. but this is good, it seems genuine and they were actually successful. yeah this is good

damn dude. dont be such a bitch its just a goddamn topic with a pleasant video. who gives a shit.

AGHHHHHHHHH THERES A SHITTY YOUTUBE MUSIC VIDEO TOPIC WHERE NO ONE READS OTHER PEOPLE'S POSTS FOR THIS TYPE OF SHIT YOU GODDAMN STUPID CUNT
-
ya try to show people something nice. JEEZ LOUISE :fogetshrug:
-
guys my mom forwarded me a youtube, let me make a topic ~this topic.
w/e who gives a fuck. what the fuck difference does any of this make.
i'll take why forums are shitty for 100 alex.
seriously you posted a music video forward from your grandmother like two topics above the topic of people posting music videos. you then didn't say anything at all about it.
and just a day ago you got mad at ATARI for asking about using the FTP as a dumping ground for his own shit buuuut it's like you wandered into the music forum and dropped an email attachment.
-
the fact that no one reads the youtube music vid thread is why it's one of my least favorite threads but if i have to pick between ragnar dumping weird goa remixes of Jadakiss no one talks about and posts where the person doesn't even tell you what song you're about to click on because their grandma sent "Fwd: Funny Vid Of Music Collab" i'm probably going to call out the second.
-
its a cool video why dont you unwind a little and enjoy it?? sounds like you can use this topic more than me.
-
its not that cool because i actually listen to music my grandmother didn't send me in the mail and don't think false multiculturalism covering a song under the guise of LOOK WE FOUND BUSKERS (ALL SINGING IN ENGLISH COVERING A SONG YOU'VE HEARD A THOUSAND TIMES IN THE ELEVATOR) is interesting at all when its been done a thousand fucking times in the last year alone and finding out its under the guise of some bullshit charity event makes this seem more like WE ARE THE WORLD than something that at least point to a real charitable donation to the world (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzoNInZ2ClQ) and when you're getting owned by SARAH MCLAUGHLIN dude your topic blows. if I wandered into code forum and said "my mom made a myspace page" and it was MYSPACE LAYOUT BY BLINGEE you would give me just as much shit and this attitude of chillax is hilarious because if this was shitty metal you all would be like GR what the fuck.
seriously are you going to google lady smith black mambazo and freak out now or something.
-
I never knew ELEVATOR MUSIC exists until recently, I've been told.
-
all of this ignoring the fact TREG shouldn't be the one googling your shit in your topic for everyone else.
-
m-my topic sucks :*( mother f
-
you guys heard it. topic sucks. no need to post anymore.
-
all of this ignoring the fact TREG shouldn't be the one googling your shit in your topic for everyone else.
what can i say i'm just real helpful :fogetshrug:
-
whoa treg i see you're listening to konami - last showdown. fascinating . . .
-
man i downloaded that when i was 15 and my itunes is on random. i don't want to delete any of it though because random soundtracks i haven't listened to in years are getting me good uploads on what.cd.
-
i get your point but i'm not takin down the sig. this is a standoff now.
-
wrong. this is a motherfucking blood war.
-
m-my topic sucks :*( mother f
you mean.. grandmother f
-
those sigs were honestly useful in getting rid of that stupid WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO topic so i can't hate on them too much.
part of the reason i really dislike this kind of shit btw is I REALLY DISLIKE THIS KIND OF BORING SHIT and I lied when I said I liked the gimmick (well I actually don't mind collaborative efforts which is the gimmick I was really addressing). first off no this isn't something i'd ever listen to. are you kidding me? its a cover of fucking Stand By Me. I wouldn't care about this if I was in it!
secondly I think it's indicative of a luckily DYING sense of "world music" that was perpetuated for way too long. earlier this month I finally defriended race "scholar" (he can say the stupidest fucking things) Tim Wise on Facebook not because he was just...being...so dumb but because he posted a video saying HOW SOUL AFFIRMING. I saw several black children in the video and it was clearly them singing. knowing Wise's interests I expected either some kind of urban school in the brink of decay but they're still singing some feel good blah blah stuff.
it was kids singing Viva la Vida. all the comments were HOW SOUL AFFIRMING and shit like that it was fucking Coldplay.
I do not like these kinds of things. when people supposedly unite under a banner, and then proceed to cover or make a song that has absolutely nothing to do with them. am I supposed to genuinely believe children singing Coldplay is a video I care about? this organization (which no thanks to GR I had to look up on my own) is raising money for a music school in foreign lands.
they chose to promote it by having a bunch of people sing a cover of an English song. awesome. good job guys. American Idol sings to the fucking troops huh. why not have a song from the region you are you know TRYING TO HELP? because youtube won't watch THAT cover. they won't get it. no it's better that despite every single aspect of this supposedly being multicultural we sing a banal fucking cover. hmm let's gamble. how about IMAGINE? that's a creative choice for our next shill. raising money for a music school in another country that will have nothing to do to do with easy listening should not be done by musicians across the world singing and playing Stand By Me. it's dumb and it perpetuates a myth that not only are these kinds of songs representative of the world of international music (NEW: GOOGOOSH COVERING LADY GAGA) but that ethnic music can't stand on its own.
luckily as our own pal DS will back me up on this shit has been falling out of favor ever since Graceland (which whatever else it may have done punctured the cultural boycott directly, although bands like the Talking Heads or artists like Jeff Buckley have weaved musical styles into western music much better) and whatever you think of VAMP WEEKEND and shit you can't deny that more than ever African music in particular is getting press on its OWN merit. despite that Amadou and Mariam album being probably their worst to date, I heard Sabali on the radio yesterday. Toumani Diabatte's album topped lists in 08. Fela Kuti is less of a name drop and more of a "you DON'T know who that is?" (admittedly this is for much worse reasons and probably not because of the spread of real multiculturalism).
this video would have been something I'd care about if it was a genuine exercise in artists across the world attempting to show the real power of ethnic traditions in music instead of just shoving some black chicks going OOOOOO and acting like you've made a great stand for a school somewhere. it doesn't help that I can think of exactly ZERO of these ever working to any great success, even Live 8 tends to be found out as wasting more money than it raises usually.
you can say JUST A FUN LITTLE VID but that just kind of shows at best you're a boring person getting a kick out of a boring song and at worst you're perpetuating a pretty stupid mentality when it comes to spreading foreign music.
qawwali for life wc get in here school some dudes about scales or something.
feel free to disagree with everything I said as I haven't thought about it much and this topic blows otherwise so I went ahead and made a LOT of overarching statements but no I don't agree that doing anything for a supposed charity (especially since once again has anyone ever seen this shit have a real impact? that dumb sarah mclaughlin video is really the only thing I can think of that actually pulled off any charitable donations and it was literally her GIVING MONEY AWAY) and thinking its toe tapping fun is just a cute little vid. it can also be stupid as fuck.
-
those sigs were honestly useful in getting rid of that stupid WHAT ARE YOU LISTENING TO topic so i can't hate on them too much.
sounds like your approach to life is more of "born hatin, learnt to like some stuff" instead of "born lovin, learnt to dislike some shit"
-
my attitude towards life is neither of those, and has nothing to do with what I was quoting (you realize that like four posts above you panda and treg are discussing these very sigs and panda dislikes them and treg thinks its just a sig and HATIN does not mean ACTUAL HATE at all in this context) and that was one of the worst topics on gw.
it was like twenty page of people posting
29501. Joy Wants Eternity - [You ][/You] From Embrace to Embrace
and leaving.
goddammit shep why do you make such bad posts sometimes. its like in your constant attempt to be as succinct as possible you forgot that for brevity to be the soul of wit there must be some WIT behind it to begin with. you and marmot love just making pithy one liners and they're 90% really bad when you do.
-
panda based on your joke post where you said motherfucking blood war i think your attitude towards life is closer to long term attempts at oedipal based genocide instead of casual forum jokes aaaa this isn't even funny as a parody post because its dumb.
-
Hey treg..this topic SMells Like Teen Spirit, eh?
-
irt to the sig yeah it's kind of dumb but i actually think it's dumb because you're using the one liner one! the little chart with the last like ten at least means if i see you're listening to a leak or somehting i can say oh snap ididnt know you liked them where as a one liner usually just shows whatever embarassing piece of shit you're listening to right now which usually ends up being frequent.
they're both kind of dumb but yeah dude use the chart of your last ten plays at least it's representative. edit: especially if you IRONICALLY LISTENED TO PARAMORE or something and went away and your sig will show TREG IS LISTENING TO: THATS WHAT YOU GET-PARAMORE for two hours.
-
whats funny is when guys are using winamp or something and they're watchin porn and it shows up in the sig
Now playing: XXX HOT BITCH CREAMPIE

i was looking for the last ten plays one. where can i get that

that doesnt make sense. last.fm doesnt take track of videos. unless it was a porn audiotape
-
it wasn't part of their sig things with the other one? i dont know i just see people on SA with them, I figured they were the same? lemme check really qucik.
huh can't find it yet. will edit if do but yeah how'd it not fall in witht he other one.
that doesnt make sense. last.fm doesnt take track of videos. unless it was a porn audiotape
there used to be a winamp one that wasn't last.fm that did this. i know because i was watching some anime and it showed up and i was like oh fuck.
-
it might have been back with AUDIOSCROBBLER or whatever but i noticed one time i opened a porn vid and it showed up on my thing. also ive seen it on other peoples and it was pretty funny
-
i don't have any porn on my computer, but 90% of it had random file names like 29485_A854.avi anyhow
