Fade out

Does anyone else think that its a total kop-out when bands fade out a track? It takes true musical genius to end a track properly and so many bands have fallen into the trap of fading out songs on the album. Why bother doing that cus when they play live they have to stop it properly then, so why not do it on the album?

It may not make any sense to anyone else but fading out really bugs me. mad

I admit that it is rather cheesy, I absolutely hate it. I dont fade out my music. I dont see the point in it.

it is for keeping down the track lenghts. It is an old radio thing really, if the tracks were longer than some length they didnt get airplay. So by fading the songs they cut up to l 10-15 sec
of a track. And it have stayed ever since. Dont know why they do it now days though, but the entire songs never get played on the air anyway.

Fade outs have their place, but I agree that it is much better when a track ends with some kind of, well, ending I guess...smile

Queen has got some good music.

I don't think it's good or bad when musicians fade out their tracks.

I do, however get irritated when artists, call themselves artists, when they don't write their own songs.

I HATE when songs get re-done. Many, many many bands have reworked classic Bob Dylan songs, and it always sounds like s**t.

How about Gun's and Roses cover of Live and Let Die? That was a great cover.

*cleverly avoids any mention of Guns and Roses cover of Knockin' on Heavens door*

er..... have I lost my inner monologue again? smile


on topic:
I agree that full fade outs are sort of blase nowdays.

I dunno To, the rolling stones version of "like a rolling stone" is quite good. And Alien Antfarm's (spelling?) version of "smooth criminal" is much better that MJ's - the big freak. stick out tongue

BIG MJ fan here, well up to and including Dangerous. The new album sucks monkeys. I hate to think what the version he dumped was like.

$23,000,000.00, what a waste!

The AAA version of Smooth Criminal rocked! Much better that the original.

My favorite fade out has to be Give me a reason by The Corrs, just sounds so pleading...
