They should record a new version of Lost!

With a gospel choir. It would sound AMAZING. Anyone agree?

what punctuation should we add to the end for this version then?

 

Lost. ?

Lost; ?

Lost, ?

Haha.

 

I was just listening to the song, and adding a gospel choir to the song would be awesome. It would take it to a whole new level!

It's a good idea though, especially for the dramatic backing vocals near the end.

If they want to release Lost! as a single, they should record a new version that osunds more like the live version.

Good idea. They could change some of the lyrics while they're at it ;) A gospel choir would sound lovely though.

Not a bad idea... especially for a tv performance.

Lost...

 

 

Or they could make it a sequel song and call it Found:rolleyes:

They should release a blakc and white tour DVD ripping off rattle and hum and do that with a choir. Maybe we could call it... "shake and lunge"

Haha. I don't think they'd have to do much to the song other than add the choir. Just add them to the choruses and oohs/ahhs as backing vocals.

when i saw this thread thats exactly what i was thinking. lol and i like the shake and lunge, thats a brilliant idea.

after hearing the album i now know why they called it Lost............they band LOST their minds in the recording of it. how on earth did "mister greatest producer ever" Eno let them put that version instead of the beautiful acoustic one

I favor the acoustic version over the album cut myself.

 

 

Now, the choir idea, I really like that!

The acoustic version is absolutely beautiful. It's amazing!

Ooh! I know, they should call it Lost+

 

Because the instrumental version is Lost- (the "-" is kiinda like "minus vocals"), so the "+" could be plus choir!

i think the acoustic version is so parachutes!!!1thats i i think dumbass eno wanted them to add all this loud noise atmosphere drums,bass and beat for the album version that song is so over done its practically raped i hate that song!

I doubt Brian Eno was prodding them with a big stick saying "I want big drums and hip-hop and keyboards and bhangra!" Sure he may have had some ideas and given advice about it, but at the end of the proverbial day, it's CJGW who make the decision, and it's their ideas and instrumentation that make the song what it is.

I agree whole heartedly. This song is amazing live, and feels more as if builds and goes somewhere, with a stronger drum section and more guitar work. Unfortunately as far as the album goes I much prefer the acoustic version.

Whoever said about writing a song called Found..

 

I've done that haha :D

i think its a great idea to have it more like the live version.

 

the opening drum is far more aggressive and really makes you sit up and take notice.

 

then will coming in pounding away.

 

and jonny unleashed with his riff.

 

add in a gospel choir and lost! could easily be renamed "Lost! - So Fuck Off!"

 

would rule the airwaves, imo

 

:)

Exactly! The drums are soooo much better live, I think. And with slightly more guitar, I think it would be my second favourite song on the album. As it stands though, I think I still like the acoustic version a tiny bit better (than the album version).
