The Verve's "Bittersweet Symphony"--Wasn't this song recently used in something?

The Verve’s lead singer - Richard Butler - sang the song with Coldplay at Live 8. The video was one of the featured performances - got a lot of play.

I had no problem with that, not only because it sounded good, but because the critics tended to say that the song was so powerful it took away from Coldplay’s songs right after that. I am not the biggest Coldplay fan out there…

I don’t know that they had it. I was just making a guess that it appeared on one of those music composition albums.

Richard Ashcroft.

Me too. They even used the crap mixes of the early songs. The whole point of “She’s a Superstar” is the massive swirling guitar bit at the end, and they ended up using a mix without it :rolleyes:

Kids love hearing other kids sing. Don’t know if you have/had a three year-old in the house, but they just dig it. At least, mine does.

And yes, they’re censored. So are many of the compilation CD’s - for some reason, we have a copy of Wow 19(?) with “Hollaback Girl”. Trust me, the lyrics in the song we hear are far more tamer than what they really are - not a single profanity to be heard.

:smack: thanks. y’know, I almost put a question mark after his name 'cuz it was nagging at me. Shoulda woulda coulda…
