If you just want to hear 'Snowbound', go to... http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/song/Snowbound/851585

... For those disappointed by not finding 'Snowbound' audible here, some thanks must go to 'mriseborough' in prompting me to search out the above link where this song can be heard, (though their attitude while doing so is not appreciated, nor are their assertions correct).

..[Note: Knowing what the copyright nonsense is like, I couldn't say if the 'Grooveshark' vid is accessible outside of the UK?] 6th Sept '09
Disclaimer: despite a slight similarity between the names, there is no association or affiliation of any kind between 'ELGROOVER' and 'Grooveshark'.

If you want to know why you cant hear 'Snowbound' on YT, or a lot of other web places, then read on....

'Audio Swamp' [sic] ~ replacement track →

Illegal (Drost's Downtempo Mix)

artist: Kinder Atom

album: MMM! (disc two)


After 2,100+ views, Snowbound - Donald Fagen is yet another tune hit by the recent avalanche of copyright enforcements killing the sounds on YT. I'll trot out yet again my little piece of wh@ I think of this stupidity - I think the record companies don't understand the record buying public and th@ they lose more potential sales than they think they gain by this action. If you're considering buying this excellent music (th@ you can't hear here now), I recommend th@ you buy it 2ND HAND OK!!

♪♫ [Chorus:]
Snowbound
Let's sleep in today
Wake me up
When the wolves come out to play
Heat up
These white nights
We're gonna turn this town
Into a city of lights

At Nervous Time
We roll downtown
We've got scenes to crash
We're gonna trick and trash
We're gonna find some fun
We hit the street
With visors down
With our thermasuits
Sealed up tight
We can beat the freeze
And get saved tonight

Let's stop off at the Metroplex
That little dancer's got some style
She's the one I'll be waiting for
At the stage door

[Chorus:]
Snowbound
Let's sleep in today
Wake me up
When the wolves come out to play
Heat up
These white nights
We're gonna turn this town
Into a city of lights

We take the tube
To Club Hi Ho
It's about deadspace
It's a marketplace
And a party house too
Something new
From Charlie Tokyo
It's a kind of pyramid
With a human heart
Beating in an ion grid
A critic grabs us
And says without a smile
The work seduces us with light
Eviva laughs and we step out
Into the blue-white night

[Chorus]

We sail our icecats on the frozen river
Some loser fires off a flare, amen
For seven seconds it's like Christmas day
And then it's dark again
And then it's dark again

[Chorus] ♪♫

  • Fagen sure sounds different these days

  • to TheFunkologist ~ yea...;-) thanks for your comment.

    Did you try the 'grooveshark' link?

    I'm curious to know if works where you are? ;-j

  • @ELGROOVER Naw it's not workin'. No biggie tho, my pops got the cd at home. Also I've seen the video a lot of time back in '93 or whenever it was released. And if I'm right either Dailymotion, or another videosite is still streaming it.

  • to TheFunkologist ~ thanks for the feedback.

    Grooveshark™ is working fine here in the UKplc. (btw - it can take a little while to load up at the initial page). As is common with these things, it's dependent on where you're listening from.

    Maybe anyone else who can't use the above mentioned link could try your suggestions, and then let us know where else this "Snowbound" track can be accessed ☺ ;-j

  • @ELGROOVER I looked it up and you should try: clevver. com

  • to TheFunkologist ~ Yep, ^th@^ works (back here in the UKplc))-;-)) It's the slightly shorter version with the viddy that has added sound fx. Thanks for the info. Proost! ☺ ;-j

  • ~ btw - The 'Grooveshark' link (for those who can access it) has the full 7min+ of the 'pure' album track (no viddy) ☼ ;-j

  • I know how you're feeling about the song being disabled and replaced, bro. It's these copyright claim actions by these music megacompanies like WMG that are killing potential sales for their albums at record stores and on iTunes by keeping people from hearing what they're missing.

    Incidentally, "Snowbound" is one of my favorite tracks off of Kamakiriad and I've got the complete album, downloaded off iTunes. Donald Fagen's music (with Steely Dan or solo) is the ace high.

  • What's all this '@@@' shit?

  • My Almost Gothic video was killed in less than 2 hours by WMG. I think Don and Walt wouldve loved my tribute

  • I know right? I tried to make a video, with pixeleen as the background music and my video is audio disabled, I don't understand the logic behind it all, come on its like a tribute to a song i like, its a conspiracy I tell yall. Response to olivej1942's comment. look at my simple channel and see what i mean, not even sure if there is database of allowed songs out there in youtube or even by these people that seem to block people's creativity in videos and music tributes. thats my 2 cents...

  • ass

  • I tried posting the Snowbound video just to see what would happen, and it only lasted about one day before they (WMG) blocked it. I didn't put any tags or even the name on it, but they still found it right away. So I looked them up on Wikipedia and saw how they blocked some group's own video on their own website! They wouldn't even let the artist post their own video. Very strange. I'm just wondering how it could benefit them to do this sort of thing?

  • Playlist. dot com works! Of course you can't see the cool video :(
