Back to the issue.

I would like to be very complImentary to whoever corrected the spelling in the subject line, because I was just about to offer myself for free.

Well done, fellow English pedant.

I think we can disregard the last statement from 'pheloxi* | introducing eeteehootoo and bowbe on my space - please say hi to them | in 6 month 121 United Federation of Friends join us too A',

60/70's soul music belongs in the past, and ought to stay there!

United Federation of Friends

Federation? do not change my nickname plus news!

btw I mean we need people who can sing without computer improved singing.

I'm sorry I spelled it wrong to begin with!

I'm confused, did I just get moderated for moderating myself?

oohhh....Moderators you can moderate sweetest lady here
... you distroy my childhood imagnation

Yes but why did I get moderated? thats what I want to know!

Oh and it was me that changed the title sorry but you mentioned it first! I'm not really a pedant, honest I'm not

Moderators you can not moderate sweetest lady here

hope 14 days will pass soon, they mr sillflirt has brand new pair of glasses to see with

There are people who can sing without computer enhancement of their voices. That doesn't mean they have to though.

...Although it would help...

With what, exactly?

making them appeal to musical purists I accept loads of people don't appreciate it but being a I think she's wonderful

I just get annoyed with the way so many music videos now use that colour separations system that was first used on "Have a Nice Day" by the Stereophonics. Its as cliched now as the morph

I did know what it was called, but haven't a clue now...

Oh and... *hugs Fiona for being one of the bestest friends he could ever have, and hands her a shiny silver tiara*

*hands out for everyone to enjoy since everyone here are such wonderful people*

>...now use that colour separations system that was first used on...<

It also featured in Schindler's List (not a music video ) Where the little girl in the red coat is running through the streets - the rest of the film is in B&W.

Liam.

*hugs Joe*
Thankyou sweetie!
*passes him some all for him*

Wasn't it first used in a Duran Duran video, many years ago?
The technique, not the .

Yey 80's trash!
Yey! Cheesecake!
*wonders if it's wrong to bribe people with to be complimentary about her, decides it possibly is but nevermind*

*sniggers at EV knowledge of Duran Duran videos*

I've done too much sniggering today. I'm off to get myself a proper sense of humour.

Liam.

But is 80's music? It's great!

Its not just a technique, its a specific piece of software. It doesn't separate the colours in as brute force a way as making them go black and white, instead it subtlely pushes the reds and hightone greens to make the picture warmer and the flesh tones seem to glow, whilst leaving the whites and cool colours bright and crisp.

Its used such a lot now though...
