This song is playing in my head for some reason


teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

When Phil Spector first played "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" for Barry Mann, Mann's initial impression was "Phil, you have it on the wrong speed!" He apparently thought that Spector was trying to play a 45 RPM record at 33 1/3. And I decided to try it out.

I don't have an LP with that song on it, at least, to my knowledge, but I had a few other tools to help with it. I had Audiotronic, which allowed me to go the full sped-up, pitched-up route. The instrumental starts to sound a bit closer to Motown than the Wall of Sound, but the pitched-up vocals sounded wrong.

What sounds better than that (but likely not the officially released version), is just speeding up the tempo. So, try watching/listening at 1.25X speed. Or if you want the full 33 to 45 speed without the pitch, go to VideoSpeedUp and try the custom speed of 1.35x (though you will have to go to YouTube itself for that option).





If nothing else, it's an interesting experiment.

I've known for a while that the country-music=right-wing paradigm is oversimplified (and listen to some Willie Nelson or Johnny Cash for evidence of that), but I never expected a country song to be this fucking based:

I had this album.  My dad hated it so much!  He wasn't a big fan of Black Oak Arkansas either because of the raspy-voiced lead singers in both.  He always griped but my music choices were never censored.
