Shut Us Down clip is up!!!!!!!!!!

[wondergirl9847]

You can listen to a clip of the song at www.elizabethtown.com !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUPER short clip, but you can get the idea.

EEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!

Here are the lyrics (hope I get this right!)

"...even after all these years
I can't even see you clear
a child was born, another dies..."

GAH! I wanna hear more!

[ontheEdgeof17]

Awww...it sounds soooo good! <333




Is this the same as CVB? I didn't download it.

[wondergirl9847]

It doesn't sound anything like the CVB song. Of course, we didn't get to hear his chorus, but I think he wrote this himself. :thumbsup:

WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


YAYZ!


Don't you just want to grab someone's hands and jump around together in a circle?!?! :lol:

[EnchantedSLN]

SQUEEEEEEE!!! Thank you for the heads up Christy! :D

[wondergirl9847]

Don't you just want to grab someone's hands and jump around together in a circle?!?! :lol:

Yep! :blob2: :blob1:

[golden braid]

Awesome! Finally something to look forward to. It doesn't sound anything like the CVB song. :]

[johndoe]

Okay, that's a lot of fast forwarding to find it... and there's a lot of Nancy Wilson, whoever she is. Okay, don't like murder me, but I find that song to be slightly disapointing. Like its sounds kind of, blandish. I dunno, maybe its just the clip that's bad.

Or maybe I'm tired...

[wondergirl9847]

Do you like Say Goodbye or Red Rover?

Nancy Wilson is 1/2 of the band Heart...well, sorta half. LOL She's part of the group Heart...you know, Ann and Nancy Wilson and she's married to Cameron Crowe.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Do you like Say Goodbye or Red Rover?

Those are the first two songs that came to mind when I heard the clip.

[johndoe]

I liked Red Rover but not Say Goodbye. I dunno, maybe if I hear the full version, I'll like it better.

I'm really all over the place with some of Lindseys stuff. Like I love most of it, but there's some stuff, where I'm like "Oh...okay..."

[wondergirl9847]

That's why I asked John if he liked those songs, because they are VERY reminiscent of those two songs. If you don't like them, you probably won't like this song. That's Lindsey's sound these days, I'd imagine. Stripped down...sweet gawsh, just tour already Lindsey, I'm dying here!!!!!

[chiliD]

... and there's a lot of Nancy Wilson, whoever she is.


Are you serious?

Yes, sadly :(

:nod: :nod: :nod:

It's very stripped down. I'm dying to hear the verses....I bet the lyrics are to die for!


On a scale of 1 to 10, my fandom for him is around a 6....I want him to tour by himself soo soo sooo sooooo bad, so he can rise to like an 8 or 9....I wanna be a BUCKwheat!

[wondergirl9847]

Buckwheat! LOL!!

[ontheEdgeof17]

Buckwheat! LOL!!


:laugh:

It popped in my head. Chiffonhead...Buckwheat.....it fits! ;)

Nancy Wilson is from Heart. She's the blonde sister of Ann Wilson. She sang lead on 'These Dreams' among other Heart songs.

[sodascouts]

I like this new style. Can't wait to hear the whole thing - and SO glad it's not another cover!!

[AliP]

The way he is singing reminds me of Blue Turns to Gray or She Smiled Sweetly.

[wondergirl9847]

It's a mixture of Say Goodbye/She Smiled Sweetly/Red Rover.

SG - for the guitarwork

SSS - for the vocal

RR - for the wierd lyrics

[tuigirl]

Okkkaaaaayyyy......hmmm..the problem is..I love that CVB snippet ..oh well...
Blue turns to grey, yes, good comparison(good cover too)..it'll have to grow on me I'm afraid...

[WelshWitchPMD]

OK I am at that site and I click on Lindsey's name and NOTHING HAPPENS!!! :mad: Did they take them down? Do I need some magic trick to get this to work? Don't tell me that it does not work with AOL, right? :confused:

[WelshWitchPMD]

Good Grief! I finally got it to work! It sounds pretty good from what little I could hear.

[Johnny Stew]

I read this thread before I followed the link, and my heart sank when Christy compared it to "Red Rover" and "Say Goodbye." I've been hoping against hope that L.B. wouldn't further pursue that style of instrumentation (which I've gone on record in the past as saying I feel is overly fussy for songs with vocals).

But I like what I heard in this clip... so I'm optimistic about the potential of the complete track. :D

[shackin'up]

the man touches me deeply in the first three seconds of singing. stunned again.

[shackin'up]

The CVB lyrics are TOTALLY another cup of tea...eh....pint of lager..... :D


Shut Us Down Lyrics Camper van Beethoven:

I’ve got a ’lectric guitar and half a bottle of warm beer
I’ve got some funny ideas about what sounds good
What sounds good
Better shut us down
Better shut us down
I’ve got a dollar (fifty) (fifteen) and nothing better to do
I’ve got a half tank of gas and nowhere to go
Better shut us down
Better shut us down
Better shut us down.

[Lindsey Jr.]

Mhm... I'm gonna wait until I hear the full song

[wondergirl9847]

The first time I heard it, I went "Hmmm...okay.", then I listened to it about 20 more times and I love it now. Cannot WAIT to hear the entire song and read the lyrics!!

JS...I just meant the RR comparison because of the wierd what-the-frick-do-these-lyrics-mean, not the sound, it's TOTALLY Say Goodbye, if anything.

For the peeps who don't care for it, wait for the entire song and maybe listen to it a few more times. :shrug:

[dissention]

Ooh, thanks, Christy! I love it. It does remind me of Say Goodbye a lot, which is fine with me because I think it's one of his finest songs. This new one sounds like it's going to be really great.

The rest of the soundtrack is pretty darned good, too. :woohoo:

[catinthedark]

So is there a way to get to the Lindsey track any faster? :laugh: There's a lot of Nancy Wilson there! I was like, skip, skip, skip....

Okay - so I like what I hear, so far... I love the guitar. You're all bang on - very Say Goodbye. Can't wait to hear more.

PS I LOVED the Tom Petty song Square One. Is this a new song? (Don't kill me - I don't own any of his albums).

[wondergirl9847]

You go to Music, and they list the songs, click on Lindsey to get just his song.

[Serrart]

Hi all,
I'm in Venice right now so I should be able to watch the movie, even if the two days in which is projected are hell (too many movies and I can't always choose where to go, but I'll try my best). Unfortunately I'm in a public place and don't have headphones right now, so I can't listen to the clip, but I'll try later.

I loved Square One too and I think it's new. The other Tom songs on the soundtrack are not new.

[dissention]

"Flame To Ashes" by Nancy is fantastic. All of her music on this soundtrack is, to be honest. :thumbsup:

Doh!! :D Thanks!

Runs off to Google Square One and Petty....

[catinthedark]

And on edit: It IS new! Square One and Jack are new. I can't wait to get this full soundtrack! (And see the movie)

Oops - I hit reply instead of edit. Oh, well.

Thanks Christy! I love his vocals on it...but I love Say Goodbye.

You're at the filmfestival? That is so cool - have a lot of fun there! (spotted any celebs yet? :D)


Um, the song.. I'm not that enthousiastic about it .. yet. It sounds like it's only half done, and I don't like that hoarse sounding singing on it. Sowwy.

[Janet]

Oh how exciting!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU for pointing this out for us. I LOVE it.

[shackin'up]

Oh guys i understand the comparison with Say goodbye, But this has so much more "space" inside the instrumentation and The guitar sounds so much more "warm" than that metallic sounding picking on SG.

I just say: Put some good headphones on, focus on the sound of the guitar and cry. This is going to be a heartbreaker first class, I'm sure.

[Barbara]

After hearing the CVB Shut Us Down I was primed for a rocker, so I'll reserve judgement. I'm not nuts about his whispery "sotto voce" delivery, but maybe it's right for these lyrics.

Barbara

[Gwillaker]

there's a lot of Nancy Wilson, whoever she is...

Heart ;)

[PenguinHead]

Nancy Wilson is an immense talent...as a singer, songwriter and guitarist. With her sister Anne (another amazing artist), their group Heart was a pioneering rock group from the 1970s onward.

Back then there weren't many women in the rock world. For two women to front a band was very unusual. (save for Stevie & Christine) Have you ever heard the songs Barracuda, Magic Man or Crazy On You? Those songs of part of what is termed "Classic Rock." Anne and Nancy are from Seattle and still live there. A very nice city. (not too far from where I live -- in Portland).

Yeah, the Lindsey song sounds a little too whispery...but I'll reserve judgment until I hear the whole tune.

[golddustwoman77]

Thanks for posting that. Wow, I'm so excited that we have a new Lindsey song to look forward to!!!!!! :blob2: I wished I could hear more of it right now.

[Nico]

I'm not going to listen to the clip...I'll just get the album because I love T. Petty and because I like to blow $16 or whatever on myself from time to time. Besides, I almost always fall in love with Lindsey's music...it's weird...I got "Mirage" and thought, at first, that Lindsey had created utter **** and the high pedestal where I had placed him had finally met it's demise. But now I love 4 out of 5 of those songs on there. And if it sounds anything like Say Goodbye or Red Rover...OMG. I'll be in heaven. :shocked: Those are both perfect songs, imo.

[ReFleetwoodMac]

Is she the once morbidly obese one, or is that a whole other entity completely?
Nobody has answered my question, and I'm itching, positively itching, to know. "Googling" it is for suckers.

[DavidMn]

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: I love it!!!

[johndoe]

Have you ever heard the songs Barracuda, Magic Man or Crazy On You? Those songs of part of what is termed "Classic Rock." .

Well, I know what classic rock is, lol. I'm not that out of it. LoL. But thank you for the explination.

[dissention]

Nobody has answered my question, and I'm itching, positively itching, to know. "Googling" it is for suckers.

I would hardly classify Ann Wilson as morbidly obese, but to answer your question, the answer is no. This is Nancy Wilson:

http://www.robertmknight.com/photos/guitarheros/6-NancyWilson2.jpg

[dissention]

My deepest graditude extended to you, my kind sir. Can you figure out to whom I was referring?

Her sister, Ann Wilson.

http://web.insidevc.com/special/fair2003/slideshows/entertainment/heart/slide03.jpg

[estranged4life]

at least it is something new, So here's hoping for even more new material.

[golddustdragon]

His voice sounded a bit more hoarse than on Say Goodbye. I hope he doesn't do that same whisper singing on Soundstage.

[dissention]

Wrong! Be careful - Lux will not hestitate to beat you to it.

As if I give a rat's ass.

[johndoe]

His voice sounded a bit more hoarse than on Say Goodbye. I hope he doesn't do that same whisper singing on Soundstage.

He taped the soundstage in 2003 in the middle of the SYW tour, so its probably its probably the same as it was...

[trackaghost]

Her sister, Ann Wilson.

http://web.insidevc.com/special/fair2003/slideshows/entertainment/heart/slide03.jpg

She doesn't look morbidly obese to me :shrug:

[dissention]

She doesn't look morbidly obese to me :shrug:

Me, either. She lost 60 pounds quite a few years ago and I think she looks great. Still sounds just as good as she did 25 years ago, too.

[DavidMn]

Me, either. She lost 60 pounds quite a few years ago and I think she looks great. Still sounds just as good as she did 25 years ago, too.
I agree. She's not as big as she was for awhile there for sure.

[MaccaMaBelle]

I agree. She's not as big as she was for awhile there for sure.

I also agree. I LOVE Heart, and watched them progress through a few years, but she's never been morbidly obese.

I'm also not bothered at all by the fact that I had to listen to a crapload of Nancy Wilson to get to the Lindsey song. :thumbsup: Just disappointed that it's such a short clip of his song!

[Serrart]

You're at the filmfestival? That is so cool - have a lot of fun there! (spotted any celebs yet? :D)

Yes, some till now (yesterday Harrison Ford having a drink with Calista Flockhart). By the way, today, there's the first Elizabethtown projection, hope to be there.

Romy

[princessblair]

I've seen Heart live twice in the past year (including their Soundstage taping) and I think Ann looks great. Nancy is one of my favorite guitar players and her new stuff sounds fabulous! Aside from Lindsey's guitar playing, his new song sounds too much like Say Goodbye, which I'm not a big fan of.

[DownOnRodeo]

I love this song (going by the clip). To me it's most reminiscent of Love Minus Zero/No Limit, which is a style that I've been hoping he would pursue. :blob2: :woohoo:

He just keeps getting better and better - pleeeeease release an album, Lindsey. :(

[DownOnRodeo]

I was watching the trailer video... They used instrumental music from Monster at the start. Odd..

[ERigby818]

actually, I think his voice sounds a little like Stevie's. And i have no complaints. :thumbsup:

Amazing how those two are so alike and continue to influence each other.

[BTFLCHLD]

look what youve done :rolleyes:

[Lindsey Jr.]

I hope this movie will come out in the theaters and not straight to video, I'm dying to see it on the big screen ;)
