  • Songs that have "studio chatter " bits?

    I enjoyed today’s list basesd game today at work. Think of songs where something they leave some “chatter” on.

    Arctic Monkeys “Library Pictures” starts with Alex Turner mumbling “I’m in a vest” or the end of Jamie T’s Brand New Bass Guitar”. Both contrived, but complimentary to their respective songs.

    There must be some classics but I can’t think of any.

    There’s one by Pixies, IIRC, which involves a fair amount of profanity, and Elbow have one as well, not in a position to check the tracks at the moment.
    There’s likely a lot more, I can’t think of any more of the top of my head.

    ‘Gallons of rubbing alcohol flows through the strip’ – bonus track from Nirvana’s In Utereo.

    Roy Harper’s Tom Tiddlers ground. I can’t type out what he said as I’m at work and it’s in reference to illegal narcotics.

    Smashing Pumpkins – Bury Me ‘Boys lets do it’

    The Beatles – Hide your love away ‘Pauls broken a glass, broken a glass’ & ‘Oh, you ready, Macca?’

    If you listen closely you can hear the drummer shouting **** after he drops his drumstick in the Kingsmens version of Louie Louie.

    Somewhat bizarelly the FBI investigated the song for containing profanity (on another issue – there was a belief that the lyrics were different to what was published) but the investigators completly missed the **** bit 😀

    Surfer Rosa. Steve Albini’s idea, apparently. Thinks now he imposed himself too much on the production.

    The Ash album 1977 has a hidden track at the end, of the band members vomiting. Which is always embarrassing when I forget it’s still on.

    It’s not studio talk, but the album version of Ash’s ‘Jack names the planets’ has some excellent mutterings by a drunk dutch bloke who reckons his town Niuew-Vennup is the centre of the universe and hence why the plant should be named Nieuw-Vennup……

    There’s a bit of studio talk on the Wedding Present ‘George Best’ album, before ‘Something and Nothing’ – seems one of the engineers asks David Gedge if it sounds nice and he responds that that’s where they’re being paid for, to make sure it sounds nice!

    But my favourite definitely isn’t studio talk – on St Etienne’s So Tough before ‘You’re in a bad way’ and is a great sample from Billy Liar. Which I repeat every time I take my daughters into London. Including using anything to hand as a echo chamber

    The Housemartins – Step Outside.

    Intro has Paul Heaton saying “It’s faster Stan” just before a restart.

    Always makes me smile for some reason that one 🙂
