I was watching AI a few weeks ago, when it was country week, and this guy Adam something made an awful emo version of Ring of Fire with a lot of screaming

god... but everyone adore him

srahman24 · 04-15-2009, 05:17 PM

Haha.. yeah, I thought it was pretty atrocious but... apparently it's having a good effect? Falling Slowly and the Once soundtrack are climbing back into the iTunes charts.

#4 on the US Soundtrack charts (#5 in Canada, #1 in Finland, but I doubt that's to do with American Idol)

The whole thing was kinda surreal yesterday.

Quote:

Fortunately, Kris Allen stepped up and made the most inspired song choice of the night. He chose "Falling Slowly," the 2008 Academy Award winner for Best Song from a Motion Picture. It is a gentle but powerful love song, and Allen's interpretation was on target. It is a beautiful song well deserving of greater exposure. This was the type of performance that sends viewers to iTunes to check out the original recording. "Falling Slowly" is the product of a real-life romantic and artistic partnership between Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. It is not the first time Kris Allen has shown his skill at picking the right song. 2 weeks ago his choice of the Bill Withers classic "Ain't No Sunshine" was another stroke of genius. Once again, it's not just about singing, choice of song can make all the difference.

Isn't this Swell Season thing supposed to be dead and gone? It was nice, but I want my Frames back now.

mariaoran · 04-16-2009, 10:33 PM

so, i've been listening to "the frames" station on last.fm (while doing a stupid air conditioning project .... X| ) and i'm wondering if anyone has heard the Into the mystic/heyday version that plays on there. I like it and want it. But basically i just want to know where its from... anyone?

and if you haven't heard it, then go and hear it. its good!

dboyd · 04-17-2009, 02:32 AM

no.. just the relationship is gone.. i thought i remembered hearing that they will still sing together and stuff.. they are remaining good friends... Anywho, It works as Glen's solo name too? :P

srahman24 · 04-17-2009, 05:19 AM

^^ Does it have a bit of Queen of Hearts in there too? A friend tells me that's from their 2008 Atlanta show

mariaoran · 04-17-2009, 04:15 PM

Yes, it has a bit of queen of hearts as well. Thanks Shaaar!

don't really know why but surprisingly The Frames are at #57 on the US I tunes with Falling Slowly from The Cost album!!! The version from the Once soundtrack credited to Glen & Marketa is also re-entering but lower in the charts. So far more than 400,000 downloads in the US...

NE 57 FRAMES FALLING SLOWLY 27,347 (Total: 56,769)
RE 128 HANSARD*GLEN & MARKETA IRGLOVA FALLING SLOWLY 11,801 (Total:407,872)

srahman24 · 06-30-2009, 10:16 PM

Marti, it was because of So You Think You Can Dance - they used The Frames version of Falling Slowly for one of the dances, and then again for one of the "last night on SYTYCD" montages for the results show.

mariaoran · 07-07-2009, 11:13 PM

This belongs here and in the Lisa section too.

Lisa will be supporting the swellies in Ireland!!!
