NOCK HUNTER · 25-11-2009, 06:30 PM

Excellent

I miss the Muppets.

That was very good. They did not like the original words much though, but there again this section is not very suited to the general muppet audience

Quote:

Mama just killed a man
Put a gun against his head
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead
Mama, life has just begun
But now I've gone and thrown it all away

NOCK HUNTER · 25-11-2009, 08:56 PM

yeah, I think the original words would have frightened the kids a little

frommy · 25-11-2009, 11:54 PM

I just had to go back to the original though.

Yeah.
Listening to it the first time, my mind was a few words ahead of what was being sung and I was thinking "How are they going to reconcile lyrics about murder in what appears to be a kids show"

Question answered I guess. I still find it jarring though. Like my train of thought gets derailed when the lyrics don't match what I'm hearing.

Love it.

Loved the Muppet's clip and the original (thanks Frommy) but the clip after the original on youtube started playing and I had a listen. Glad I did. Sorry for the derail, sort of.

It's the nature of these threads to derail

Anyway - if you like string work done well (read - superb) try:

It's not Queen (Beatles actually) but still excellent.

When I retrieved the original video from Queen I was staggered at how closely the Muppets had reproduced the effects. It made my appreciation of the efforts from the Henson team even greater.

That Edgar Cruz rendition is just superb. Thanks ActionMan.

Finger pickin' rules.

The ukulele piece is a nice bit of goods, but did not strike home for me like the Cruz piece.
