Blog de Musique

This is a music blog. Different kinds of music. And commentary on said music. Most of the files uploaded will be AAC files (because I'm an Apple guy) so you best have iTunes to play them. Sorry if you don't. (If any links are dead, leave a comment and I'll reupload.)

I buy way too much music for my own good and then waste my time talking about what music I've bought on my blog.

Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas?


I don't care what anybody says, this is still pretty awesome song. Especially this extended remix by Trevor Horn of Art of Noise fame.

Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas? (Trevor Horn Remix)

Why I like this version...

- the bit just before the "holiday greetings section" where they they hold they hold the "Do they know it's Christmas time at aaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll... and then Trevor Horn has to get his Art of Noise on and adds the crazy orchestra samples

- then there's the "holiday greetings section". That is just classic in itself. Bono saying "This is Bono from U2 and I just want to wish you a Happy Christmas and a Merry New Year... Is that right?"

- Phil Collins' drum solo before the "Feed the World" bit. Miles better than the boring drum solo from In The Air Tonight.

Fuck We Are the World.
