Someone tell me where Bootsy Collins was, I didn't see him or hear him anywhere in that.

It was okay, but I was a little disappointed in the sync with the original recording. Sometimes the drum machine wouldn't quite track the beat.

I think "craptacular" and "underwhelming" are 2 words that come to mind after hearing and watching it. Makes me realize why I never heard that song when it was fresh in 1989.

Bootsy Collins was the arranger, and the band was The Bootzilla Orchestra.

I remember when I first heard it (1990 or so), I thought it was interesting. Actually, it was more like,"I want some of what he's smoking."

That's funny, I don't remember getting high today.

/that video was horrible. Really, truly horrible.
//not even ironic horrible. Just a "fail to appeal on all levels" horrible.

It's called "cocaine." You can get it in "crack rock" form for pretty cheap in just about any ghetto and probably college campus.

Actually, McLaren's drug of choice was heroin. And I'm quite past that stage now.

/"I'll have two ounces of the madman."

Unlistenable crap.

Well, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Praxis or his other stuff with Buckethead was much better.

I liked Jeff Beck's guitar work on Roger Waters' "Amused to Death" album.

I thought you were specifically asking about Bootsy.

My blow/green dealer who lived next door in the dorms was named Bootsy Collins so I'm getting a kick...

/not his real name
//motherfarker looked just like him though
///lots of random slashies!
////bonus exclamations!

Time signature fail... The original is a waltz in 3/4 time like all waltzes - that is pretty much the definition of a waltz. The drum machine, however, is thumping along with a standard 4/4 rock-pop beat. The two simply cannot mesh.

That's what happens when you try to shoehorn a sample in 3/4 time into a 4/4 sequencer.

This sounds like something the KLF/JAMMs would do, just for a laugh.

Oh wait....they did.

Who the fark programmed the drum machine in 4/4 time when attempting to synch with a waltz? You can't tell me Bootsy would have done something that stupid, can you? I mean, it was 1989, but even then you could sequence things in different time signatures.

Strauss? Why not? After all, he made a bundle by raping Puccini.

What do the 80s and Japan have in common?

/yep, lotsa farked up shiat
//I miss the 80s sometimes

Can't be random slashes if they progress 1 per line, random is what random does.
