HGG Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I fucking hate when you get a song in your head and you can't remember what it's called. And I should know it... Yaaaaaaay. Do we get another P&B guessing game here? You hum it, we'll guess it for you. Have you tried that website where you can "play" the tune on your keyboard using the spacebar and it'll tell you what the song is? Can't remember the URL but I'm sure someone here will as it was posted on here a while back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart. Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I fucking hate when you get a song in your head and you can't remember what it's called. And I should know it... Is it "Just Can't Get Enough" by Depeche Mode? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I fucking hate when you get a song in your head and you can't remember what it's called. And I should know it... Whitesnake - Here I Go Again? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It's a classical tune. It's irritating the shit out of me. So much so that I've set up Garageband on the mac and have started arranging it! *geek* 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gray Ghosts nag, he has just finished going through one paper, and needs to go through another one and come up with a plan for tomorrow morning. Curses to The Gray Ghosts supervisor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 No, it's none of those. It has the most fantastic bassline. We used to play it at band - it was one of my favourites, which is why it's bugging me so much! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We used to play it at band - it was one of my favourites, which is why it's bugging me so much! Tchaikovsky - 1812 Overture? It may not have the most fantastic basslines, but it has cannons in it. Imagine playing the cannon in an orchestra! Would smack f**k out of a triangle! The Gray Ghost appreciates that this doesn't help you at all, he just thinks cannons are cool. sorry. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Haha, thanks for trying to help, but I really don't think you'll get it. It's very melancholic and sounds great in a brass band or church organ arrangement. It's in C minor, I've figured that much... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, The Gray Ghost is pretty much exclusively all about Russian composers.

Do you think orchestras have a "utility man", a sort of versatile bloke (or blokette) who plays the odd stuff that turns up now and again? One minute he's blasting a cannon, the next he's got one of those tubes filled with beads that make a whooshing sound. I have absolutely no idea why any orchestra in the land would need one of those whoosh-tubes Unfortunately, that's the only thing I could think of. I have absolutely no knowledge of classical music. Up until last week I thought Rivaldo had composed The Four Seasons. Edited July 16, 2008 by Dunc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One has to hope they never compose something that makes use of jungle animals.... "Alright, so brass section in on my mark got that? Good. Now, Steve, when I give the signal, you have to prod the hungry uncaged tiger in b-sharp. After that, you need to follow that with panther yowls, and then finish with the whoosh tubes." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reina Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I GOT IT!!!! It's Sarabande. But it's not the version you'd recognise - there appears to be at least 2 Sarabandes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Disciple, you have travelled far, worked hard, and now, it is time for you to learn the skills of the legendary Sarabande." "Gosh Sensai!" "Yes, the SarAbande is the semi-mythical combat weapon first built by Gohan, and was used to defeat Emperor Ryu in honourable combat. Only one disciple a generation is taught the skills of the sarAbande, and now it is time for this wealy ord man to pass the gift on to his chosen student" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
