  • Please fill a newbie in on just exactly how this works. It's an e-mail account, but it has songs on it? huh.gif I've not encountered this type of thing before, but I'd love more OK Go songs!
    Thanks,
    Misty

    I've sent about 30 songs- all of Appendices, the three songs from the Six Song Demo that I have, the Napster Live tunes (including "Clementine"), and a few other songs.


    AHHH CLEMENTINE! I'VE BEEN WAITING TO HEAR THIS! FOR TOO LONG! I LOVE YOU!

    Yep, go to gmail.google.com and log in using that info, and there are songs there to download. Just don't accidentally delete anything. smile.gif

    1) What do we consider to be a "commercial release"? The EPs aren't really a commercial release, and they were up there last time, but they're available for purchase in the store and anyone can buy them. (I'm one to talk, I haven't yet, haha...) Whereas something like......"The Lovecats" or "Down For The Count" are on commercially released singles, but they're only really on limited release.
    I personally think if it can be bought it shouldn't be up there.

    Thanks for the work on this! I'm going to try to add some stuff today.

    Thanks Sheri!

    Wow! That was like Christmas!! More OK Goodness to listen to!
  • I added the other three songs from the Six Song Demo. "Fuzz" is different from the Appendices version, and "Bye Bye Baby" and "Laserlight Sister" are mixed differently or something. It sounds like the same recordings, but they're louder and clearer. So I just figured I'd put 'em up too and have the whole demo up.

    Is that cool? Or do people feel it's redundant?

    I'm gonna add more tomorrow, hopefully.

    Thanks for a lot of that stuff, Katy! A lot of it I haven't heard before (live "Aren't We Dozy," "Clementine," others). Haven't had a chance to listen yet, but am bouncing in anticipation. biggrin.gif

    Ooooooh! Thanks for finishing the Six Song Demo! You're right, "Fuzz" is different from the Appendices version and the EP version (aka "We Dug a Hole"). "BBB" and "LS" are the same as on Appendice, they're just better quality copies. I'm going to keep them on my iTunes just 'cause, even though it's redundant, haha.


    Bounce away. smile.gif
  • This is excellent! I had the majority of these and then the hard drive they were on dies a painful death (taking a lot of my recent work for my class with it - man I was annoyed, it waited until the first day of the holidays though which was kind of it...)

    Anyway... oh yes, thank you for letting me get these back!

    Someone mentioned about posting videos if they had been captured... let me know if you want them adding as I have some and can capture more if pointed in the right direction (I have the technology to do it, but might need to know where some are that I don't have...)
  • Cool about the Six Song Demo smile.gif

    I was also thinking, what would everybody think of putting interviews up there? (clearly marked as interviews and from where) I've got a few:

    *mp3.com Great Albums
    *Feta for the Birds KRUA Anchorage (2 parts)
    *The Backstage Pass CJIQ Ontario
    *Radio KOL (2 parts)
    *Let's Get Baked

    **Edit: Yay, I'm "Something Else"! laugh.gif
  • ohmy.gif :s :s

    I'm shocked and appalled at the live "Aren't We Dozy?"

    I think the studio version is absolutely perfect wonderfulness. Hence my shock.

    I'm not categorically opposed to changing things up live, but ... eeesh.

    Done whining now.

    I like the banter at the end, though!

    .....

    "Clementine" is nice smile.gif But it's gonna take me a little while to not get annoyed by the backup vocals. Too used to the original!

    That Napster Live "You're So Damn Hot" is awesome. And it's very cool having a live "1000 Miles Per Hour."

    Okay, this isn't the "comment on the songs in the account" thread, I guess ....
  • I added the rest of what I've got. 25 more live songs (yay smile.gif ).

    I will check back later to see if there are any doubles. I had an email issue that made me send a couple things twice. It's taking a little while for the files to show up in the gmail acct., so I'll check back later.

    I also put up Tim's audioblog thank-you song, "Shooting Star." laugh.gif If people feel like that shouldn't be there taking up space (it's very small anyway), since it's gettable elsewhere (the blog archives), I'll take it off.
  • Um, I added what little else I had.

    If we're not going to put up songs that are still available for purchase, I think we're done, unless we want to throw in interviews and videos.

    I mean, that means we can't post some good stuff:
    "Bye Bye Baby"
    "We Dug a Hole"
    "It's Tough to Have a Crush..."
    "Antmusic"
    "Unrequited Orchestra"
    "Hello, My Treacherous..."
    "This Will Be Our Year"
    "The Lovecats"
    "Oh, Lately" acoustic
    "GOI" live
    "Invincible" live
    "Down For The Count"

    Yeah. *shrugs*

    Do you not have that one?

    See, that's the thing about the UK singles.....you can't really get them over here, unless you hit up eBay or something.....
  • Yeah, I was hoping I'd get to hear it. I totally understand, though.
  • I should be able to get hold of UK singles stuff... what's missing again and I'll see if I have it

    Oh, I have all of them.

    The issue is whether or not we should post them, seeing as they're still on sale and all....


    Then again, I'm a total fucking hypocrite, 'cause I have both EPs but haven't actually bought them.
  • Have just sent "Oh Lately It's So Quiet" (acoustic Version) - I noticed that I'd missed a post...

    Enjoy!

    Anything else UK based I might have?

    -------------------------------------------------------------------

    EDIT: And again I missed your post...

    I can stop it sending if you want.

    Eh, whatevs. I'll leave it up for now. Figure out what to do with it later and such.
