c*** ups

#1 Post by Undertaker »

First of all, sorry to those who thought this was a pornographic thread. It's not, unfortunatly.

I've just thrown the PopArt dvd on and i've noticed a few things. It might well just be my copy but on a few songs, Neils singing and the actual words seem to be out of sync. It looks like bad miming. Also on Jealousy, the song seems to be missing a few seconds right at the beginning.

Is it my copy, or does everyone have this little fault?

I've just realised i've posted this in the wrong forum. Thats purely down to lack of sleep though. :doh: I apologise.

So people lip sync in their videos, Weird al does it, no big deal.

Ya sold crack to my sister, and now she's sick.
But if she happens to die, because of your drug;
Im puttin' in your culo, a .38 slug!

Yeah, there is a little bit missing at the start of Jealousy. I seem to remember quite a few other people commenting on this at the time of the DVD's release.

The only video that looks slightly out of Sync to me is part of Single-Bilingual (the bit after Neil gets out of the Taxi).

I dont think WeirdoAl and Vince grasped what i was trying to say. I didn't ask if you thought Neil was miming in the video's, i was making a point that the DVD recording was slightly out on some tracks. Nevermind :roll:

I find the music channels have become unwatchable. I'll tune into them when the new single is out but there is only so much RnB i can take (and that equates to about 10 seconds)

VH1 try their best though with the greatest whatever videos.

And I dont get the post, (like most of mine)

Who cares if there is a 10 second flaw in the video, someone must been drunk remastering the video.

So why did you then write something that had nothing to do with what Dave asked?

To add: my copy seems to be behaving the same way with Jealousy. Feels cheap, in a way.

Yeah, I was working out to PopArt this morning Dave and noticed exactly the same thing - out of sync, can't quite remember where though - Jealousy may have been one.
