I'm sure it's been asked before, but please someone tell me who did the cover of Tomorrow Never Knows at the beginning of the Chems' set.



Appreciated.

Hmmm. Are you sure it's a Beatles cover, or the sample "Surrender to the void..." from the Beatles Tomorrow Never Knows?

No I'm fairly certain it's a cover. It was played on a documentary about The Chems and I think I've heard people talk about it before.

Not 100% positive, but fairly certain.

A documentary on the Chems?? (more *hmmmmmm*'s from me) I have not seen this, so unfortunately I'm at a loss...



I have heard a cover of Tomorrow Never Knows though - heard it in a shop a couple of years ago, and a woman was singing it. From what I understand there's a pretty tight grip on Beatles songs, and there's a whole lot of red tape that needs to be cleared before any Beatles songs can be used in advertisements, movies, and covers released commercially. Getting a clearance to use a Beatles sample is pretty tough too from what I understand.

There are at least five covers of Tomorrow Never Knows I've found, so it can't be that hard. I just can't find the one I'm after...



Yeah, it was FBS night (urgh), a documentary about their gig at Red Rocks or something.

Ah... I see. I've seen the Fatboy/Chems gig on video, but didn't get to see any live interviews.



You may want to just go here:

It's a starting point to all the song titles that match Tomorrow Never Knows and at least you can listen to samples (if you can get the damn thing to load, it's sllllooooooooooow) and take it from there.



Good luck!

Junior Parker.



NegativeSpace: you talking about the Your Weekend Starts Here doc?
He put on a turn-down collar, a black bow, and wore his Sunday tail-coat. As such, he looked spruce, and what his clothes would not do, his instinct for making the most of his good looks would.

As we are already talking about the Beatles - does anyone know their movie "Yellow Submarine" and love it as much as I do ? :)

About the Blue Meanies invading the peaceful Pepperland, 20.000 leagues under the sea. Young Fred can escape them with his submarine and heads to London where he picks up the Beatles, for music is the only thing the Blue Meanies can't stand.



One of my three favorite movies.

Not really a comedy, but has some funny gags in it. The story is quite weird, yes.

[ah, need a damn "edit" button]



The YELLOW submarine maybe refers to the Illuminatus books by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson, as well as the Apple symbol of their record label.



(Illuminatus is most popular for the use of 23's and the Eye In The Pyramid signs)

It's available on DVD in a highly restaurated version with some formerly deleted scenes and new mixed soundtrack.
