Can I make a music suggestion?

Post by CWR » Sun Sep 02, 2007 3:23 pm

I ask because I made one before, but I made it in the wrong forum and I proceeded to make several more stupid mistakes. I tried to apoligize but nobody would accept it and a couple - three people jumped on me with both feet, told me I am not welcome, (even though I do pay an annual fee to use this site, so I thought I was a member) and the thread was locked.

I have been a fan of anime since the seventies and my best bud in college (early 80's) would bring back betamax tapes full of the latest stuff from his summers home in Japan - it was on those tapes that I saw what I think is the very first AMV; Gainax's DaiCon 3&4. So I am no noob to anime.

So I thought I'd ask before I made any more suggestions, and I will only make the music suggestion while leaving out any opinions I may have. If I am not welcome to do so, then I will abide by your judgement...

No sweat,members here sometimes do that when they're in bad mood or are just bored. Donation is not needed here to be a member... Actually,if you would look around,you would notice that most of members haven't donated.. And as an anime fan,you're more than welcome here. If you're uploading your vids to youtube(boochsack),just don't link 'em in these forums,and I guess you won't be bashed.. Pretty hard,but hey - everyplace has it's own rules,even if they're not official. :?

Congratulations,then I guess you're a senior for me. I've been into anime for only like 10 years. But that's not the point,here we don't decide who's a noob and who's not just by the days,weeks,months or years they're into anime - that is decided by your behavior (godix is an exception).

Coolness - thank you. The song is "The Hell of it" from the 'Phantom of the Paradise' soundtrack. If you've not heard it, go to Google, choose video (search option) and type "hell of it" in the window, and it should be the first video listed (The hell of it - The Phantom of the Paradise). The song is long (4:15) but since it plays over the end credits, the last 2:15 is instrumental padding in order to cover all of said credits (think piano solo).

I'm not sure, but I think that Paul William's character in this movie (Swan) was the model for the villian in Lupin III's first movie Mytery of Mamo, I just popped over to Wikipedia and found this quote -

Some aspects of Mamo's character, notably his appearance, were reported to be based on actor Paul Williams who had starred as a similarly charismatic villain in the 1974 film Phantom of the Paradise.

thank you.
