"Europe A Go Go" was a Eurovision Network linkup featuring stations all over Europe, hosted from Belgium. Not just a Tube special. It probably deserves an article in its own right, except that everyone seems to have forgotten about it now. It was followed a year or two later by Eurotube which was entirely broadcast from Newcastle. Lee M 01:30, 12 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Moved Here from the Main Article

[edit]

The following looks like unfinished notes to me, and also a lot of POV - so I've moved it here.--DaveG12345 (talk) 22:46, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The first 12" mix is also referred to as "The Pleasurefix" mix (not to be confused with the "Pleasure Fix" instrumental). It's basically an instrumental run through the track followed by a vocal run through, with an edit back to the start after the third instrumental chorus. The introduction uses the spoken voice as detailed above, with some unusual keyboard sounds.

The "Fruitness" mix is a lot more complicated and involves a lot more edits. It also starts with spoken words from an actor, as above. The music starts with a sound loop that's featured on the "got to reach the top, don't stop" part after the 2nd chorus of the "Pleasurefix mix". It then uses stripped down instrumentation without drums from the "shooting stars never stop section", then using the last chorus, again stripped down. It then uses the instrumental section that's also found in double looped form on the album mix (on the album mix with the "Dark side of mood" guitar solo). At the break in this it joins to a vocal only of "shooting starts never stop" from the 1st verse. It then has a keyboard only run through the first chorus. At the end of this there is a short break and it loops to the original start of the track. The first verse is used in instrumental form, with an edit on the last snare beat before the 1st chorus then joining to the 2nd verse in instrumental form. The 2nd verse is followed by the last 3 chords of the 2nd chorus. The "got to reach the top, don't stop" is then uses in instrumental form. The break at the end of this then loops back to the original start. The song then plays through in vocal form. The "got to reach the top" part is edited slightly differently so that there is 1 instrumental section and 3 vocal sections. The song then plays to the original end. There is then a reprise of the female vocals from the "shooting stars never stop" section. Finally the chords from the last chorus are used up to the end of the original track.

On the nearly fourteen-minute album version, the song is preceded by three short segued introductory pieces, titled, in order, "well...", "The World is My Oyster" (both of which are sometimes indexed on CD as one track) and "snatch of fury (Stay)", which consist of atmospheric primeval-jungle sounds as well as eerie, wordless, atonal choral chanting that builds to an early, dramatic climax, which was perhaps intended as a kind of parody/homage to György Ligeti's Requiem, Lux Aeterna and Atmosphères as heard during the discovery of the monoliths, heralding "The Dawn of Man" and his evolutionary journey "Beyond the Infinite", in the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The album version uses some clever editing for extension. The first part with beats is worth listening to carefully - it cheekily uses the first 6 bars several times. The flutey sound from the introduction is clearly evident in the edit for the 2nd run through.

Number the first sections 1,2,3,4,5,6, with each one being marked by a guitar chord. 1,3,&5 are the same chord, and 2,4&6 are the same chord. 3 has a crash cymbol at the start, 4 ends with two drum beats, 6 has a single drum beat at the end.

The extension intro uses:

1,2,3,4, 5,2*,3a 5b,6, 1,2,3,4,5,6

  • still trying to verify this.

This version of the song, which is notable for not having the vocal over the drums was used for BBC One evening programme promotions during 1985.

About "How To Remake The World" and "Alternative To Reality"

[edit]

I found them from some of the original adverts for the 7" and 12" releases. They were used rather than what is said on the labels.--TapLover (talk) 23:47, 28 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
