As I mentioned in this thread (http://thecardboard.org/board/index.php?topic=13422.0), I love the Lorde remix of Everybody Wants to Rule the World.

Interesting that the video ends with the ESPN discussion of Wazzou's strengths, Stanford's defensive weaknesses. The coaches must have wanted to provide a little extra motivation to get everybody amped up for the game.

Lorde's voice ruins the video for me, so I muted it and played the original Tears for Fears version instead  ;D

To each his own.  The original was good, but the song's mood didn't match the somewhat dystopian lyrics ("there's a room where the light won't find you"), which might have been the point.  Still, I thought Lorde's brooding matched the mood of the song well, and the musical build-up to the final "Everybody wants to rule the world" was great in her version.

I've always liked cover versions that seek to reinterpret a song, rather than re-sing it.  Lorde does that, but if you don't like her voice, not much you can do.

Lorde's version has an edge to it that is far more appropriate for this team and this time.

Ok that was sick.

Also the inclusion of those clips at the end leave no doubt in my mind that the number one audience for these is actually the players.

Really good video. The music worked, I thought.


Re: Everybody wants to rule the world - PalmTree - 10-31-2015

I hadn't heard this remake of the song - I'm also fine with it for purposes of this video. 

I LOVE the multiple views of Garnett's pile driver hit on the DB @ 2:01 - KA-BOOOOOM!!!  8)

I totally, 100% agree!  That sequence was superb!

Very far aside, but Terry, I've noticed recently it seems like you've devoted the time you used to spend debunking rouge kal fans on this board, to now debunking johnnyo53 on Facebook.


Re: Everybody wants to rule the world - fullmetal - 10-31-2015

Good video :) But overly dramatic and slow to develop imho...and the first couple of game sequences seemed pointless to a fan, but perhaps noteworthy to players.
