it's actually quite a cool technique when it's done well, which is usually in jazz. although the bocfan outrage is amusing lol.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd- ->

Okay, I listened to it (again) and you're right, it's probably an attempt at a Lydian scale, since that scale seems the most likely, but when she does those stupid little "scoops" her voice drifts flat.  Any other time, she sounds okay, but when she gets loud or "creative," her pitch suffers for it.  I think it might have been a drawback to using a quieter track, since STBD is subtle anyway.

I'm not convinced she knows what a mode is...

That aside, I'm pretty sure if BoC wanted vocals to one of their songs they would've done it themselves... Their music is meant to be instrumental.

I'm pretty sure this didn't happen:

Mike: Man, we've been working on this track for over a month, do you think it's ready yet
Marcus: I dunno man, seems like some thing is missing...
Mike: Do you think we should run that bass drum through some more tape machines?
Marcus: No... that's not it, it's something else...
Mike: Oooohhh, I think I know what you're saying.
Marcus: Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
Together: BEYONCE!!!
Mike: But, wait... She's doing that movie "Dreamgirls" right now?
Marcus: Hmm, well looks like we'll have to get Solange then...
Mike: Great idea! But she's also doing some terrible movie.
Marcus: Sigh, looks like our great idea will have to wait 'till AFTER The Campfire Headphase is released.
Mike: Good things come to those who wait, Marcus... Good things come to those who wait.

You know, before she did this, I used to think it would make a neat mash-up with "Who Will Rescue Me?" from Disney's The Rescuers.
