Metamatic Forums Socialising The Green Room What Music Are You Listening To ?

It is not a bad remake by any means, but the earlier film is incredible. I can't say I particularly noticed the soundtrack on the Clooney film - I'll have to check it out again.

Soft Cell "The Art Of Falling Apart" - I love this one. Then, once the album ends, on come "Martin" and "It's A Mug's Game"

That "Martin" song for me is quite disturbing.
It's a brilliant piece of music, but the manic, slightly psychotic vocal of my own name un-nerves me.
I recall distinctly a show at Hammersmith Odeon that involved a ten-minute, crowd-joining-in version that was utterly amazing.

...Martin is talking to you

I have to say I prefer the remake of the film. Although I found the original fascinating, I felt it was too long. It is however a stunning piece of cinema for its time, and just as atmospheric as the remake. I found that it lacked the emotion present in the new version.

Plus, to add confusion, there must be a problem with my DVD version as the language keeps jumping from dubbed to original!!

For Rubycon, I liked Part 1 better than Part 2 but still overall unbelievably good.
Encore Live is fantastic. I wasn't sure how it would be given that it was taken from their 1977 tour but the sound is great. There are 4 tracks on this cd, each being approximately 17 minutes or so. I wish there were more tracks or even a second cd.

Do you sense a shopping trip in the works?

Actually it's a live DVD, but I spent the afternoon capturing the audio from it

It was released in 2005 and was recorded on 2004's "Still Growing Up" tour. Features a new track called "White Ashes".
