I think of Nicole Kidman picking his telephone and calling me
Damn, again : it seems that it is one of my fave mistakes ...
I've noticed a trend, especially but not exclusively in prog, toward using spoken recordings and other sound effects not directly connected to the music as parts of the songs (sometimes just in the intros, sometimes more). There's no question in my mind that some of the songs that include these things are very good, even great in some cases, but I'm curious as to whether people think this improves the music, takes away from it, or something in-between.
I've been listening to alot of Pink Floyd recently and I think they have managed to insert random sounds and talking brilliantly throughout the years.I do fall into the only when they are good at it camp though. Some of them can be very irritating.
Another example : Guns N'Roses cover of Knocking On Heaven's Door. I am really addicted to the passage with the sound of phone keys and spoken words.
