Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Discography remains widely available... Drico. Oh yes, there it is, that classic retort. If we don’t like a new PSB song then it must mean we only like the 18 songs on Discography :roll: Anybody listening to a snippet and then hyperventilating about the lack of a chorus and how boring it might be m...

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Well Dancing Star sounds a bit..boring??!? I know we’ve only heard a 30 sec sample and we have a few mins from the remixes..but I don’t hear any chorus? Just the line ‘dancing star’ being screeched a hundred times in a row. Where is the orchestra gone? Where is the lush sound gone? For a 2nd single ...

Re: New single „Dancing star“ (digital April 3rd / CD May 3rd)

Erm..not too sure about this. It sounds like a cousin of the Bobby O track Pet Shop Boys mixed with A Man Could Get Arrested. I mean I love all the early b-sides but I thought all the songs on the album were lush orchestrated melodic tunes? This sounds nothing like Lonliness! It’s even got those ‘Pl...

Re: Catalogue 2 or Catalogue updated

Well considering the blurb on the publishers website says:

Marking the fortieth anniversary of the duo’s first release—“West End Girls”

So..must be this year!!

Re: All Of Us Strangers

Last night, I watched this film in bed with my headphones on whilst my wife slept next to me. I only intended on watching the first 10 minutes or so to see if I’d like it. I ended up watching the whole film through! I couldn’t stop watching. As a straight guy I thought the film wouldn’t connect wit...

There’s only a score which is the official soundtrack. Don’t think they’ll be anything else!

Re: All Of Us Strangers

When you take a Look at the AOUStrangers reel in Instagram, you will get the Impression that Always on my mind is the Main Theme Of the movie, as the a Song is used in different variants in quite a few reels. It becomes quite central because of the timing around Christmas. There are other bands giv...

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

Hi everyone, I have a few questions about the Dreamland concert we all saw at the cinema. I honestly enjoyed it and would sure recommend it as both of the boys still have their musical talents. I will ask the questions and give a little reason underneath as to why I am asking each one. Is the Dream...

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

Just got back from Watford Vue screening, loved the way the film was shot ,but sadly the sound was awful, the staff at the cinema was asked to turn it up and that helped slightly but was told that's as high as the volume would go because the way the film was send ,the bass and percussion was awful ...

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

Saying it was more enjoyable doesn't mean crap in my book :roll: Saying it was more enjoyable (because they turned the volume up) also doesn’t mean it’s not still crap does it? Having the volume louder just means you hear how bad the sound is at a greater volume. You can’t polish a turd. There’s no...

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

Just got back from my second screening, which was at a different cinema to the one I saw it at on Wednesday night, and I am happy to say the sound was much louder. The sound still seemed to be coming from the front of the cinema but I could hear the crowd in the surround speakers from time to time....

Yep, I also sent a complaint email to Vue and also got 4 free tickets valid for 12 months! You can’t argue with that!

Re: Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live At The Royal Arena Copenhagen

It’s a bit weird that in some cinemas the sound is good enough, and in others not. Those of us who say the sound was good clearly have low expectations on what is top quality sound. All cinemas were sent the same shite file. Some cinemas may have ‘turned it up’ a bit - but in no way would that have...
