    Aha, I KNEW I remembered seeing a low F on sheet music before...

    In Cygnus X-1 Book II: Hemispheres, in the spacey intro leading up before "Apollo was astonished" --

    "...thunderbolts, across the sky, I cannot move, I cannot hide, I feel a silent scream begin inside."

    The red "I" is a low F, F2. That's too low for most natural tenors to reach. Most males are baritones, and F2 is at the very bottom of their range, some being able to hit the low E2 or D2 with a struggle (or when we first wake up in the morning) wink.gif

     

    I don't know which keyboard you're using, but F2 is an octave below what Geddy can sing. The red "I" is F3--a P5 below middle C.

     

    I don't know if the note in "Available Light" can truly be considered here--I've always been convinced that he processed his voice through some kind of machine to get that note--it does NOT sound natural, even for him. It sounds to me like he dovetailed a synth track into his voice track for that one note. Am I in left field on this?!

    z7shysterical.gif Nice!! I don't think Broon had a hand in Presto though.

     

    (if that's Broon. doh.gif )

    That's definitely Yousef Karsh, the portrait photographer who took their beauty shots for GuP. Not Broon.

    Just back from the cinema....

    I saw it last night, and on the whole I liked it. The special effects were amazing, I really liked the way they did Zaphod's two heads, and Marvin was just fantastic.

     

    On the down side, I think they seriously didn't do justice to the book, and they focused too much on the love story. Ford got hardly any attention at all!

    Wow...I hadn't realized until I saw that poster what a star-studded cast it is! I'm definitely interested now!

    I really enjoyed this movie. I think some of the best parts are when the two of them are wine tasting, the writer gives an elaborate and verbose appraisal, and the actor just replies "Yeah, I think it tastes good." biggrin.gif

    Witch Hunt?

    or

    "...pause at a light, then flow through the streets of the city"

    The Camera Eye?

    No, that's not it either.

     

    I didn't think it was this tricky...

     

    Here's a hint: Where is the picture being taken from?

    Trick of light
    Moving picture
    Moments caught in flight
    Make the shadows darker
    Or the colors shine too bright


    Available light

    No.

    Nope. Try again.

    That's not it either, I'm afraid.

     

    Both good guesses, though. trink39.gif

    Nope. Good guess, though.
