Check out Noel's comment re. Live8:

Makes me almost want to go out and buy an Oasis album.

No i love the song too, I'd just like them to do something a little more unexpected.

Noels comments seem fitting. Noble idea, but kinda futile. And if anyone should be begging for debt dropping, America would be near the top. We're in the hole too.

It would be completely unexected for me because I have no doubt in my mind that they wouldn't play that song again in a million years.

Ok there were like 4 negatives in that sentence so I dont understand. You would not expect it?

Ugh. I've been sick for three days so exuse my poor grammar. I'm barely coherant. No, I DO NOT expect it. Not in the slightest. (dead1)

I heard that they're trying to get the Spice Girls to reunite for Live 8. Mel B is holding out though.

XDDDDDDDDD

I heard they didn't want the Spice Girls because they were affraid they wouldn't be taken seriously with an act like the Spice Girls (seriously).

Mairi · « **Reply #49 on:** June 25, 2005, 01:38:22 AM »

What, you mean the Spice Girls are not respected?

Joost · « **Reply #50 on:** June 25, 2005, 08:56:34 AM »

Yeah, I mean... How can anyone doubt the musical integrity of the Spice Girls? :

Echoes and Dogs are two of my faves from The floyd aswell Sunny.

Waters scathing voice is amazing in Dogs...'Gotta Stay Awake Gotta try n shake off...This creeping malaise'....Awesome chords aswell.

My guess for their slot based on 3 songs from DSOTM is 'Money', 'Us & Them', 'Brain Damage/Eclipse.' Presuming that Scissor Sisters will be doin 'Comf. Numb', I'll go with 'Wish You Were Here' aswell.

now that they've got pink floyd playing they should get ringo to go on stage with paul

Okay, on the subject of the Scissor Sisters, I found this on a site talking about the greatest covers ever. What are these people thinking??

9 Comfortably Numb - Scissor Sisters, 2004

Orig. Pink Floyd, 1979

Only divine inspiration could explain how, or why, New York's bendiest band came to pop Pink Floyd's balloon of pretension by re-recording their most horribly self-regarding song in the style of the Saturday Night Fever-era Bee Gees. At once cold, sexy and relentlessly danceable, it far outshines the original in both concept and execution. Key moment: The flurry of electronic handclaps after the line "You may feel a little sick."

But then they do make sense here:

8 Twist and Shout - The Beatles, 1963

Orig. the Isley Brothers, 1960

The Beatles recorded their version in a single take for their debut album Please Please Me

I read somewhere that they'll be doing speak to me/breathe, time , brain damage/eclipse and comfortably numb could be wrong tho lots of rumours going around about this

wow that description of comfortably numb sounds awful

adamzero · « **Reply #57 on:** July 01, 2005, 11:00:56 PM »

Looks like floyd are slated to do: 1) money 2) Comf. Numb and 3) Wish you were here

Pretty close guess, Apple Beatle.

Well, so far MTV are doing a VERY poor job of broadcasting the show. Too much talk and not enough music. McCartney and U2 did a good job with Sgt. Pepper. I liked the faux Beatles playing horns. U2 just did Beautiful Day and ended with the last verse of Blackbird. Very cool. Paul looks good btw. Very cute.
