lost highway Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 The Heroes soundtrack comes out in a couple weeks with a still unheard SBS outtake on it. And you can hear about 15 seconds of it over at amazon.com. Its a higher tempo number, more blue eyed soul guessing from the bite sized serving of it. If anyones got all of it I'd love to hear the rest. http://www.amazon.com/Heroes-Original-Soun...k/dp/B0015BZM9C Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Szabo Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Cool, just by those lyrics in the clip, it doesn't seem like it would've fit well on SBS. Sounds like a decent song though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Panther Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 It reminds me of Alone from the YHF demos. Its interesting how all of the songs that didn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Szabo Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Wasn't Alone pretty much a Bennett song? It appeared on In the Palace at 4am as the name "Shakin' Sugar", if I'm not mistaken. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bourbonbreath Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Wasn't Alone pretty much a Bennett song? It appeared on In the Palace at 4am as the name "Shakin' Sugar", if I'm not mistaken. Jeff sang it at a dozen or solo shows from 98-00 if my memory serves me correctly. I liked the original YHF demo version much better than the engineer demo version. I listened to Bennett's version once... with Jay's voice it was a difficult listen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markosis Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I hear a bit of Steely Dan in that one (as in SD when they were still rocking), and that aint a bad thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I thought it sounded a bit like Hate It Here, or at least in that same vein. Sorta Steely Dan (as said before) the Band and White Album Beatles mixed, mind you it is a ridiculously short clip lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheMaker Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Right on. Sounds like fits in nicely with the blue-eyed soul of Hate It Here and Thanks I Get. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zebra Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Seems like it has a similar theme to "Hate It Here", you know, domestic problems. Sounds good thus far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
LouisvilleGreg Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Based on that 15 seconds it would officially have been my 3rd favorite track were it on SBS, 4th if you include Thanks I Get, and 5th if you add in LNGCA. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twisted Acres Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 you must mean before michael mcdonald ruined them exactly the way he ruined the doobie brothers. Surely Koko Goldstein would disagree with you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

wilcogirl Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Thanks for posting that! The song really showcases one of the (many) things I love about his voice, which is his unique phrasing and his "accent" which I suppose is mid-western-esque (I've always loved how he says "somethin'" and "nothin'"). Can't wait to hear the whole thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I was talking about "Cant Buy A Thrill/Countdown To Ecstacy/Pretzel Logic" aka "The Skunk Baxter trilogy" era. I don't really listen to any Steely Dan post-Pretzel Logic.

giraffo Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 It reminded me a lot of a more upbeat Theologians right away. after listening, I'm pretty sure it's in the same key, either way, I can't stop listening to this snippet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
