I've heard this way before fallout 3, and people accuse me of "playing the game to much" and having no taste in music. Why can't people just have opened minds?
I've to say that i started listening to the ink spots as the Game Fallout appeared in my live. Normally i like heavy metal, but the ink spots are an important part of my music collections since i've heard the songs played in Fallout 1&2. This song is a masterpiece... i love it :) So bann all this MTV Kids hehe
I mean, this maybe very cliche, but I can definetly understand the old people wishing back the good old days! And it seems to be right, America and generally the world was definetly doing better in the 50's!
the good old days, huh? Sure,if you were a western male white middle class mid-twenties entrepeneur profiting from the post war econimic boom, the world was your oyster. But I don't think Miss Fitzgerald would agree.
Its sad how most people nowadays can't appreciate music like this,while the music they like shouldn't be considered music,I'm 15 and I love the Ink spots.
I'm double your age and was lucky enough to be brought up with this: Ink Spots, Mills Brothers, Ella, Louis (Armstrong), and the inspirational Mahalia Jackson.
It's also worth having a listen to Leon Redbone, who does the old tunes with rhythm and fun.
@dougd1015 Musicians didn't write back then. Hardly ever. There were writers and there were performers. I don't think it is that important but it's inaccurate to say otherwise.
They did actually, and for that matter NO musician can today, and they might as well be hiring McDonalds employees to write their pitiful excuse for songs.
@dougd1015 Hell yeah, got the same prob at my HS, have to deal with the auto tuning dog they call "Kesha" or, whatever the hell they call it. Nothing will ever compare to this.
The song is no more than a very primitive metaphor which any 5th grader today can understand. It's foolish to think the is iver the heads of modern kids. Sure they probably won't like it but that doesn't mean they don't understand it. I my love jazz, blues and other songs like this, but I also understand that back then people were simple minded and not super intelligent, but they were capable of art that is as good if not better than modern art and music.
this rendition is about as fine a recording of pure talent that you'll ever hear, this kind of talent unfortunately has been gone from earth for too many decades
Nah, I think talent like this still exists today. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem so much about the music, but rather, the image/money/etc. I am positive there are talented people out there...it's just that no one is looking for them :(
I am 20 years old, so this music doesn't exactly surround me. I've always been interested in jazz though, mostly the older stuff. But i never knew the artists, then i picked up fallout 3 and finally found the sort of music i had been searching for in my life. I do not associate this music with fallout 3, i am just thankful that i discovered this music and i have that game to thank.
