        i subscribe to editors i do NOT trust, need to keep an eye on those.
      • CatCat
        i do both
      • warp
        in theory i would also subscribe to editors who tend to add interesting releases, but in practice i haven't done so yet :)
      • CatCat
        i tend to subscribe to uh.. you guys.. liek a lame "buddy" list.. isthat lame? yes
      • warp
        no it's not
      • BrianFreud
        yeah, I have both - ones I don't trust and ones I do - on my list. If "Subscribed" actually showed subscribed editors' edits, I'd prob just subscribe to those I don't trust.

        heh, i need to get the AC in my car checked. looks like it's gonna be early summer, maybe short or no spring at all
      • BrianFreud
        What you must realize is that it is not a question of going outside. You must realize, there is no outside.
      • CatCat
        pfft matrix?
      • HairMetalAddict

      • zoke
        what do I do if tracks are just silence ?
      • BrianFreud
        [silence]
      • zoke
        just put Silence as track name ?
      • thanks BrianFreud
      • HairMetalAddict
        [silence] No caps, with the brackets
      • Hmmm... Okay, Weird Al's "I Love Rocky Road" is a parody of "I Love Rock 'n' Roll". It came out not long after Joan Jett's version spent 13 weeks at #1. He was obviously parodying her version. But the original was done by The Arrows in the early 70s. So is it a parody of Joan Jett or The Arrows?
      • BrianFreud
        If her version was different enough to be a new work (if we had works yet), I'd say a parody of her work, with her work a cover of the arrow's work.
      • HairMetalAddict
        Hmmm... Never heard The Arrows version.
      • Doubt many people have. They may have done the original, but she made it the legend that it is. ;-)
      • Think I'll go with Jett's version ("artist intent").
      • BrianFreud
      • srotta
        At some point there was talk about using "earliest" vs. using "most known" version in cover ARs.
      • BrianFreud
        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8AT_Pbtyid0 is more useful that that other link prob
      • hers sounds pretty much identical to theirs
      • HairMetalAddict
        Damn idiots released it as a B-side. No wonder noone knows who they are with stupid decisions like that. :-P
      • Bah, decisions, decisions...
      • yllona idly wonders if ruaok could visit the a/V department at SLO-Poly to check for "lost" tapes of Wierd Al
      • yllona seems to remember that weird al got his start at the SLO/Poly radio station
      • yllona
        in the dread "archi-torture" program
      • BrianFreud
        I thought Wierd Al was from Canada... wouldn't he have started up there?
      • yllona
        can't remember where he's from, but he definitely went to college at SLO/poly
      • HairMetalAddict
        During Yankovic's sophomore year as an architecture student at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, he became a disc jockey at the university's radio station, KCPR. Yankovic said he had been nicknamed "Weird Al" by fellow students and "took it on professionally" as his persona for the station.
      • ^Wikipedia
      • yllona
        HairMetalAddict: yep, that's what i remember
      • HairMetalAddict
        He recorded My Bologna in the restroom across the hall from the station
      • yllona
        yeah, we're about the same age, and i was a visiting student there, looking at schools.
      • HairMetalAddict
        Bah, I'll use The Arrows since it's technically correct.
      • yllona
        again for for the dread archi-torture program

      • BrianFreud Jeff Buckley - Moisture (from 1997-02-09: Arlene's Grocery, New York City, NY, USA)
      • BrianFreud
        most obscure cover ever :)
      • Who covers The Residents? :p
      • yllona
        laterz folks
      • drsaunde
        how would you even know it was a residents cover? might actually be one of the Residents in real life...youneverknow
      • BrianFreud
        kind of doubt it...
      • drsaunde
        well if you know who was in the residents, enter those members in the db
      • we'd have a scoop
      • BrianFreud
        not a clue, but considering they were most likely in high school in the 60's in Lousianna, Jeff Buckley was probably a bit young to have been one of them
      • drsaunde
        yah..but they could have had rotating members in as well
      • buckley of course would be amongst the very least likely
      • BrianFreud suggests Hendix and Cobain as other Residents :P
      • drsaunde is just realizing how of he says stupid stuff in this chatroom
      • *often
      • CatCat would use jett's version of rock n roll personally :s

        he's in last.fm, but zero info
      • Freso
        Googling puid 808f51a7-a0c5-8b93-e73a-bfb8ab1e5e3e gives nothing.
      • (Then again, I hadn't really expected it to.)
      • Oh well.

      • BrianFreud
        actually found something on this - looks like it was some 100 tape release. (caution, the site he links to is NSFW, and I don't see it there anyhow) http://robocybersquaw.livejournal.com/97034.html
      • HairMetalAddict
        *sigh* Really thinking artist intent should be deciding factor in parody/cover. Who's version the artist was attempting to parody/cover should take precedent over "the original artist".
      • Becomes a big factor on Weird Al's "Even Worse" album. 4 parodies are of songs that were popular at the time of release but each was itself a cover song.
      • "I Think I'm a Clone Now" = Tiffany's "I Think We're Alone Now", not the Tommy James 60s version.
      • Alimony is Billy Idol's Mony, Mony, not the 60s Tommy James version.
      • And so on.
      • CatCat is falling in love with Grieg all over again http://youtube.com/watch?v=lLDTzspI9CI&feature=related
