Guest Joe Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Wasn't sure where to post this, but for any one wanting to hear Solange's version of "Slow this bird down" here it is. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=YS84evUm-6E I don't like it personally, she should have kept it to how it was. EDIT: Title should have said "This Bird", but thats what happens when you trust semi-illiterate Youtube users... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keltoi Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 jeez, couldn't listen past the intro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest plazzTT Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Much much worse than I expected. Terrible. *puts Slow This Bird Down on repeat to clean out ears* It's got a lyric that references the original title too. Something like "This bird's gotta slow down". Can't bear to listen again to correct that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caretstik Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I skipped through the first minute or so and that was enough. I'm bemused by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lands end road Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Yikes, I acutally had hopes for this track. The vocals don't sound in tune at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terpentintollwut Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 She made a terrible mistake - she missed the original position of the track in TCH by one track in her own album, it's 13, not 12! How could that have happened... :undecided: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaini Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 jesus wept nothing wrong with the key though, it's just a fifth or a seventh or something above, and maybe in an odd mode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest musicforairports Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 I refuse to listen to that shit on the grounds it will ruin one of the best songs of TCH. Why did the bothers even let her sample their song? Doesnt it go against their "lets be mysterious" band ideology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granty Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Doesnt it go against their "lets be mysterious" band ideology. Probably, but that was likely outweighed by their "lets pay off our mortgages" ideology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Super lurker ultra V12 Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Boards of Canada was an underground band known by a few people in the world. Now that solange used one of their songs they'll become popular and one of the main acts on Warp records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCONES TO DIE FOR Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 Solange should become a new verb. I liked the first bit of that track until the vocals came in and completely solanged the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, but that was likely outweighed by their "lets pay off our mortgages" ideology. They could have at least given it to a better singer or let someone like radiohead *shudders* sample it, not solange. Even Freescha managed to score a song with britney which is still better than solange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
