New song on Eliazabethtown 2 sdtk

[lazybones]

I enjoyed this movie for several reasons, one being I am a huge  Cameron Crowe fan and consider him a kindred spirit of sorts.  I was also pleasantly surprised the one of my fav bands cameoed in the film (MMJ).  It wasn't a GREAT film by any means but it kept a Crowe fan satisfied, for its emotional moments and its great soundtrack.  To be honest I think it was a bit self indulgent but that is partly what I liked about it.  Cameron tends to include HIS favorite music and also relies on certain emotionally inflated moments.  But as I feel these things to be self indulgent I also think he knows his audience and what they appreciate.  I think he gives personal shouts out o his biggest fans in that way.  He focuses on more of a cult following than a mainstream one.  I seriously think he feels like he is a fluke of sorts and doesn't really care if he gets media and popular raves.  My favorite part of the film was the road trip part.  Being a huge Sun Kil Moon fan I loved the flash of their name on the "mix" CD that the Kirsten Dunst character made.  It was a subtle moment meant for fans.  For anyone who has yet to hear this band or anything that Mark Kozelek has put out please give it a listen.  Cameron will always have the backing of a prominent movie sudio because he has proved himself as a filmmaker and artist.  He is certainly no Ford, Scorcese, or Spielberg.  But he has his precious moments.  lLke I really needed to sell that thought to you guys.

It's all good. I'm a fan too. Vanilla Sky is one of my favorite movies ever.

Has anyone heard the version of "I Will Be There When You Die" from the Elizabethtown: songs from the brown hotel ep?  It is my understanding that it is different from the Tennesee Fire version and different from the Chapter 2 version.  Apparently this was recorded live at the live in Seattle, WA for the 10th Anniversary of the Coalition of Independant Music Stores.

This is one of only three studio quality recordings that I still don't have.   Obviously, I can purchase the Brown Hotel EP, but can anyone help me with these other two:

*Old Sept Blues (2 Meter session)
first released on: "2 Meter Sessies Volume 10" NL v/a CD (September 2001)
note: radio session recorded at the Byton Studios, Loosdrecht, NL, April 5, 2000

*Sweetheart (version #1)
first released on: "Louisville Is For Lovers 2002" v/a Valentine CD (February 2002)
also released on: "Louisville Is For Lovers Volumes 1&2" v/a 2CD (2003)

Kory, do you have the Louisville is For Lovers '02?

I sure do... I happen to know that the dude that made the comps has some left, I recently bought some I was missing from him a couple months ago...
It should be the same version as on sweatbees and chocolate and ice though. Check your pm's.

Just listened.  I am pretty sure it's different.  Not a lot. But different.  I am at work now, so I will have to wait until I can listen better to be for sure.  Either way, thanks.   As I've said before, you rule.

[dragonboy]

I have the Brown Hotel EP. I like the version that's on there but Sunrides is still my fav.
I never put it on my PC though as I read somewhere that the disc has the same virus/program/problem that Z had? Not sure if that's true, didn't want to risk it...

[aMD]

I agree with dragonboy, the sunrides version is still the best but the version from this EP is great.  Also, it does have the same copy-protection virus as Z.  I still don't have the song on my computer,.although the virus is on there a few times over.

[Willard1979]

If anyone happens to have the MMJ  track from the EP, and can post it here, I'll greatly appreciate it!!   ;D

He is certainly no Ford, Scorcese, or Spielberg.  But he has his precious moments.

I am with you on that.  Cameron Crowe is one of my all time favorite movie makers, ever since Fast Times at Ridgemont High came out in the early 80s.  Roger Ebert wrote an interesting article about this movie a while back.  In a nutshell, his position is that this movie got a  lot of bad reviews because it was shown at the Toronto Film Festival before it was finally edited.  So a lot of people who reviewed the film never even saw the final version.  The final version was 18 min shorter and much better.  Heres a link to the article:

Now a question about "I will be there when you die"...the Sunrides version is different from the meteor 2 version available on itunes?  Can anyone tell me more about this?  I never knew there was 2 version of the Learning cd.  

[Loaded_Question]

I got both volumes for Christmas....Both MMJ songs are good but I can't really imagine listening to much of the other stuff on these. Acoustic Chorale inspired the purchase of vol. 1 and when I saw them on vol. 2, I figured what the hell. Where to begin is superior live on the DVD, but still excellent on the CD. By the way, Elizabethtown is a really shitty movie. Orlando Bloom can't act to save his life. The only redeeming quality: Freebird.

No, there isn't 2 versions of learning, it's just that learning is called 'Chapter 2:Learning.".
