Oh what the fucking fuck! He’s only gone and started one of those threads on “every No.1 song on the UK charts” to ensure he can bump it every day for years to come. Is anyone here skilled in pc viruses that you could attach to his username over there and ensure everything he poats is automatically deleted?

"Grease" - the pre-1998 audio mix?

A film buff I know recently clued me in on something I never realized about "Grease", having been raised more or less on the DVD editions..... the audio mix is *very* different on home video releases starting in 1998 (the 20th anniversary VHS onwards), and not close to what the theatrical version presented.

So, intrigued by this, I bought a VCR today and scoured the thrift stores for an edition that pre-dated my 20th Anniversary boxed set (my VHS copy has that 'Megamix' CD and the mini script, so likely the first of the 'remix' batch), and after coming up empty at a few stores, I found a 1990 VHS.

Listening to the movie on headphones...... he was right. Some songs like "Summer Nights" sound the same to me (well, the song itself does; I seem to remember the DVD mix having ambient sounds audible through the song, like birds and people playing football, which are missing on this VHS), but others are *drastically* different - "Sandra Dee" is a much different orchestration than I'm used to, with the strings much more subtle and a very prominent banjo and accordion I never noticed before; and "Greased Lightning" sounds less bombastic and over-orchestrated, and the sound effects seemingly changed for the 1998+ releases (the horn honks during the instrumental break being the most obvious to me).

Is there a list of differences anywhere, so I know my ears aren't deceiving me?

Booby has said it before and will say it again.......

As I've said before, his version of Just The Way You Are was a bigger hit here than Billy Joel's original.

I've said it before but Marc shot himself in the foot with Tanx

As I said before, some of the cases are beaten up, but the discs and artwork have always been decent.

This was the best Stock Aitken & Waterman single they never wrote. I've said that many times before. It's getting a bit tiresome, actually..

I've said it before, but this 1973 Patrick Lichfield shot captured Olivia at the peak of her beauty.

I've said it before but all of Olivia's best interviews seem to take place in Australia.

I've said it before but I can't believe I never realised Gary Glitter wore wigs in the 70s and 80s.

As I've said before, the LP was repackaged in the autumn and the huge summer hit, "Into The Groove" was added.

As I've said many times before, they really should have stopped and thought again.

As I've said before, I think the success of this album is due to Farnham's fanbase rather than hers.

As I've said before, Olivia's not a horrible writer, just not a very good one.

I've said it before, but Physical is the worst one of them!

As I said before, my next door neighbour talked me into buying The Stranger.

As I've said before, I loved the Stranger from pretty much the first listen,

I've said it before, but SHMF should have a helpline. They'd make a fortune.

I know I've said this before, but I just wanted to it say again while it was still fresh in my mind.

I think I've said before, but I have the Japanese remasters of FTTSON and Secret Dreams.

I've said this before in other threads, but the Mastered For iTunes versions of Arrival and The Album are really nice.

I've said it before, but Beyonce has the 'better' voice of the two.

I've said before, and been treated with disdain because of it, that Bieber's Believe album is excellent.

I've said it before, but another strike against MAF is that the CD sounds bloody awful.

As I've said before, Say Say Say has now become Blur Blur Blur.

As I've said before. I bought Totally Hot on Wednesday 29th November.

I think I've said before, but I never bought a cassette single.

I've told this story many times before, but Have You Never Been Mellow was the single that got me into Olivia.

I've said it before, Elton is more Oliver Hardy than Tom!

I've said it before, but Magic captures the feel of what the people making the movie were trying to do.

As I've said before, the aforementioned PS was so scarce it took me 20 years to get hold of a copy!

As I've said before, I think this is Cliff's last decent pop album (that I'm aware of).

As I've said before, the LP was repackaged in the autumn and the huge summer hit, "Into The Groove" was added.

I've said it before, but I think if people are going to like one ONJ song, it'll probably be 'Magic'.

As I've said before, side one of The Album is nigh on perfect.

As I've said before, I didn't end up getting it for another 25 years.

I've said it before, but I'm thrilled these are the next Archive releases.

I've said it before, but these two UK comps from around 10 years ago have lots of great songs that don't often crop up on CD.

As I said before, it's the Frank Stallone song people remember from that movie!

As I've said before, 11 out of the 14 tracks are over 5 minutes in length.

I'm more than happy to get Tug Of War and Pipes Of Peace as I've said before.

As I've said before, Olivia's stuff is so well recorded it's hard to muck it up.

As I've said before, I don't like live albums.

As I've said before in reference to 'Stop (Think Again)'... They really should have.

I love Landslide too, and as I've said before, I'd have chosen it as lead single.

I've said it before, but I'd like something along the lines of 'Back With A Heart'.

As I've said before, she could have brought out the pathos in Agadoo!

As I've said many times before, this was a GH album from a time when all the tracks actually were hits.

As I said before, I've no idea if Bieber's song is 'commercial' or not.

I know I've said it before, but I wish she'd go to Nashville and record some of the songs for hire there.

I've said it before, but if you put something like Clearly Love next to Soul Kiss, it's like 2 totally different artists.

I've said it before, but Michael Beck was one of the biggest mistakes in the movie.

As I've said before, Elton dipped in quality after 1978.

As I've said before, 'Soul Kiss' is an album I always enjoy and appreciate when I play it.

As I said before I got the 2CD 1 DVD digipack of BOTR and instantly regretted it.

As I've said before, most orders from them resulted in a trip to the sorting office.

As I've said before, if you didn't look at the small points I mentioned, it is convincing!

As I've said before, 80s Elton is not to be sniffed at.

As I've said before, after the huge success of the Physical single, there was nowhere else for her to go.

I've said this before, but I've no idea why Greg Penny wasn't used again after Made In England.

As I've said before, the only CD I have by them that's relatively decent sounding is 'Shoulder Of Giants'.

As I've said before, I discovered him in stages and mostly much later.

I've said many times on here that it's almost like an album by a different artist.

As I said before, this was never an official UK release. It was compiled by MCA from Olivia's 3 previous studio albums.

As I've said before in other threads, I did find "I'm Alive" a let-down.

As I've said before. she isn't the most dynamic personality and could have used someone to bounce off of.

As I've said before, this show offers the best version of Love Is Alive I've ever heard her do.

First LP definitely cost £2.15 in mid-1973.

As I said before, my first was £2.15.

God no, I wouldn't waste that much time on that moron.

I simply typed "As I've said before" and "Bobby Morrow" into the search function and there they all were. It took maybe 20 seconds to copy and paste each one.

Here, let's try putting "Jimmy Osmond" and "Bobby Morrow" into the search. I'll give myself 5 minutes to copy and paste as many quotes as I can.

Also, crushingly, Bowie’s The Jean Genie held off the top by “Little” Jimmy Osmond’s Long Haired Lover From Liverpool in January 1973.

The latter, believe it or not, was also covered by Jimmy Osmond. It was the B-side of Long Haired Lover From Liverpool.

This became a #11 UK hit for Jimmy Osmond in 1974.

Jimmy had 2 further big UK hits (Tweedle Dee Tweedle Dum and I'm Gonna Knock On Your Door) before the Osmonds' bubble burst.

Little Jimmy on Bargain Hunt? How the mighty have fallen.

I remember Long Haired Lover having Jimmy's version of Mother Of Mine as it's B-side.

BTW, sorry for having to include Jimmy Osmond again!

Three day weeks, power cuts, and on top of that Jimmy Osmond goes to number one for 5 weeks.

It may be mean of me, but I'd have loved Little Jimmy Osmond to have beaten Paul and George in this poll.

He'll be lucky to be remembered with Jimmy Osmond, never mind Hendrix.

I myself have begged Polydor for a 5.1 mix of Little Jimmy's seminal Killer Joe album.

Some Little Girl was one of Jimmy's best singles. The B-side was Breakaway (From That Boy).

Wouldn't You Know It is perhaps a little too bright and jaunty for my tastes. Probably more suited to Donny, or perhaps Jimmy Osmond.

There you go. That was 5 minutes work.
