fantastic cover

[MrsTillyMilly]

what is that thing the qituar player has instead of playing with his fingers?

[abehughesmusic]

@MrsTillyMilly: It's an Ebow. I'm not exactly sure how it works, but it basically vibrates the strings for you and gives you a sort of infinite sustain.

[MrsTillyMilly]

@abehughesmusic thank you for your answer,wish you a sunny day! Greetings from Germany

@MrsTillyMilly its an ebow. really cool device

[cgmcgarty]

@MrsTillyMilly I know it as a gizmo develeloped by one of ELO in the late seventies/Eighties. it's like a revolving wheel of plectrums to give a sustained sound like a synth this one is probably newer design and just vibrates, you could always use the washing machine on spin cycle for same effect? :D

[BlackMonk66]

@cgmcgarty That's the Gizmo, developed by 10cc. An Ebow is something different and it uses magnetism. I'd guess this is an Ebow, but I'm not familiar with what a Gizmo sounds like. According to Wikipedia there are vitually no working Gizmos that still exist, though.

3:12 there he goes again, dear god, atrocious. Seriously, who did the drumming on this? I want to find him so I can slap him.

@ryko26

*Sigh*

[ryko26]

also - what the fuck is the drummer doing? Is he even playing to the same song? Awful

[ryko26]

oh dear...she can't sing can she?

[DannyDesperate]

@ryko26

Brian Eno couldn't write a tune either, but it never stopped either of them getting on in the muzak bizness...  It helps to move in the right circles!

[ryko26]

@DannyDesperate Are you comparing the drummer on this track to Brian Eno?

[ribotaddict]
