There was a series doing the rounds on some of the social medias where people highlighted the importance of music by removing the actual music and playing something else over the top. Eg. A sad funeral type scene... And someone's playing Pharrell Williams - Happy over the top of it.
Really highlights the importance of music.
Or take music away when it's used to build suspense in a movie ... And all you get is an actor looking a bit scared in a wood... Add that music back in and suddenly it's eerie and scary again.
I've only recently been able to the listen to this.
Kerrang and scuzz used to play this ever 10minutes. It became so overplayed I got sick of hearing it.
But nowadays, I can appreciate just how good it is in its simplicity and that's part of the reason why it still gets used today at sports events, it's a good song that lots of people know and it's simple and effective.
i'm sure there's plenty more where that came from. around the same time as "i hate everything about you" there was another track that got played loads on Kerrang and scuzz... and i just associate the two tracks together. so that one might make an appearance tomorrow 😉
this had a real comedic effect going on, especially in the beginning, i loved that his chair looked like a cut off shopping trolley.
felt like i was watching a benny hill sketch or even harry hill for that matter (no relation to each other).
great track, i can hear that western style guitar mixed with that samba feel. really really cool fusion. and it's hugely impressive that they had songs in multiple languages. too often do we just hear English in music.
