This is a version of Charlie Brown I made. It's the same as the Mylo Xyloto version except it's more like the live version during the Light a Fire part and it has extra percussion during "All the boys..." Not perfect but to me It combines the best part of the studio version with the live version. make sure you select 720p for best audio quality

This is great! If THIS were the studio version, CB would be absolutely perfect.

 

I do feel like there's a slight weird offsetness about the bassdrum in the chorus though...was that stolen directly from a live performance? It just feels SLIGHTLY off. But this might just be in my head.

 

Either way, it sounds really good...almost tempted to replace my iTunes version with this one.

Ok, first listen, still trying to figure what's different.. :D

Yeah I think you may be right. I did this really fast so I'll probably go back and perfect it later when I have time. I took the David Letterman performance and on the "light a fire" part I did a low pass filter so only the bass frequencies could be heard and mixed it with the studio version. Then I did a high pass filter so the high hats could mostly be heard during "All the boys..."

 

Yeah I put two copies of MX in my itunes and left one the same but the other i put that version of CB and I also added moving to mars

Awesome mix, but tune down the bass in "Light a fire" a bit, cuz the guitar riff afterwards sounds a little bit doo-de-li-doe without the contrast to the verse. :pleased:

Hey guys,

 

Here is my version. I added bass to the "Light a fire" part obviously. But I also continued the extra bass until the part where the whole song kinda stops before the ending. I think that made it a little more epic and true to the live version. I made it as clear and clean as possible.

That's incredible. I will definitely be listening to your version for the rest of time lol.

Thanks man! :D

 

It makes me angry how they decided not to make the studio version like that.

It obviously sounds better.

They came up with it during the live performances.

:l

Hey guys, sorry the site went down. Here's a new version. I don't actually have the old version, but the new version is kinda combined with the Radio Edit I got.

 

Here you go:
