It is!!! Wouldn't sound too out of place on The Tall Ships, if that's not a rude thing to say...

It does have that kind of "feel" but that could be the JM influence (no clue if the track came out of the "writing session(s)" with JM?? It could probably fit in with Kino or The Urbane too IMHO but I hasten to add that is deffo a good thing in my view.

Wasn't the Forget You song a 'leftover' from the EIMA writing sessions which was still JG on its own?

Very kick ass! Other than myspace having a poor streaming quality, its a great listen! Jem is a Fu*king genus!

Post by: Jem on May 09, 2009, 09:44:04 AM
Ta all. you can see why it wouldn't have fitted on EIMA, but I like it nonetheless. A jolly little bit of fluff and a bit of an homage to Mr Sturmer and Mr Manning.  :D

yeah i can see why it was not put on EIMA, but its a great track.  :D

I LOVE IT!

I love everything Frost* do. In public at least.. :P

No BUTT seriously. It's really good. Can't wait to hear the rest.

edit: meh @ myspace crapquality...
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: gr8gonzo on May 09, 2009, 04:21:03 PM
Yes, thank you v much Mr. Jem for another fine quality bit of instrumentation and vocalisation.  I do love me Jellyfish, though I must say I did not sense their influence on that particular track.  A straightforward rocker with elements of ELO perhaps.  However, should you come in contact with Mr. Sturmer, do smack him with a trout for depriving the world of his talents**, will you?

 :mrgreen:

**cartoon themes and J-pop do not equate to an Andy Sturmer solo album

Edit: Now I can't seem to stop imagining Andy Sturmer singing this.  Feel free to collaborate.  Somehow I don't think anything bad could come from it.

Now that's just a perfect example how to get addicted to a song!

Thank you Jem, makes me look that much more forward to the Munich gig. :D

Welcome Atwa!
I saw Yes in the Tollwood tent a few years ago, Frost* should be a great gig.
Enjoy yourself on here. :D

Blimey!

Are the versions of songs on the MySpace page exactly the same as the album versions? I thought I spotted some slight differences in The Other Me and Dear Dead Days, but I could have been imagining things.

Ee by gum, that's a bit good isn't it? Cheers to you, Jem!  :D

Although it is good to know that it's MySpace's rubbish compression and technical dealies that make the song I uploaded sound the way it does. I'm relieved it's nothing to do with Cubase, my laptop or the tune itself!  :)

That's a bit special. Ta muchly.

Is that going on the DT special disc?

Post by: Pajter on May 11, 2009, 02:54:52 PM
I still can't stop listening to this song. It's got such a good vibe. It makes me feel like it's summer already!

I'm guessing it will be released in the winter... :lol:
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: L33VEY on May 11, 2009, 09:36:40 PM
Short, sharp and spiky

The closest that I can place it to is 1976 Buzzcocks.  Their short songs were supposed to be the opposite of prog - how the wheel turns..
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: Jem on May 11, 2009, 09:58:33 PM
:lol:

Well Frost's not supposed to be entirely a prog band. i'd like to think we can nip about here and there from time to time and go exploring. Like Jellyfish or 10cc or ELO or sElf or Janey Child. ;)
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: Pajter on May 11, 2009, 09:59:28 PM
Isn't that what prog's about? As much musical genres as possible. :P
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: Pedro on May 11, 2009, 10:26:20 PM

Yep, prog will eat itself....it's the category that defies categorisation....no wonder it's so easy for people to dismiss it.... :(
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: rogerg on May 12, 2009, 01:13:10 AM
what's prog?
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: Mouse on May 12, 2009, 01:36:36 AM
Prog's a character from The Trap Door (//http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9dbAQJIu1o&feature=PlayList&p=0B0A6D9BAA2E5DD2&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=4), isn't he?
Title: Re: The Forget You Song - Myspace - NOW!!
Post by: gr8gonzo on May 12, 2009, 02:45:34 AM
A "Jellyfish meets ELO" Frost* album would not upset me in the slightest.  Maybe Sturmer could do a cameo?

Oh, and wife says Prog is a city in the Czech Republic.

Isn't prog just like rog only quieter?

What a corker of a song ! One for the tour sampler CD ?  :D

Pedro .. Prog Will Eat Itself .. like it !

One of Stourbridges' finest .. much like Mr Jowitt.

Post by: gr8gonzo on May 12, 2009, 02:38:39 PM
TFYS was actually part of the live set, so it's certain to show up on one of the live CDs, separate from the EP which should definitely be titled "Prog Will Eat Itself."  :D

Nevermind that... Did you know that when a Japanese honeybee hive is invaded by a giant hornet scout, the honeybees "bake" the hornet in a ball of about 500 bees (pictured)?

You mean, like this....

....inconclusive, I'd say.

I mean, there could just be a Malteser in there for all we know.

Post by: Pajter on May 13, 2009, 01:14:15 PM
I knew that! It's the only way bees can kill a hornet, because a hornet's body temperature can't go as high as a bee.

Normally a hornet would kill a bee easily, but bees are smart like that.

Yeah, I knew it was Rogg. Does that make Progg his older, louder brother?

And as for the quotes, well, I like to get 'em while their hot.  8-)  
(I think. I might be missing something here. I can be thick like that.  :P )

I've now confused myself. Scuse me while I go have a think...

I should've put that bit on a separate post (about the quotes) I was rambleposting. It wasn't directed at you but as a general query. x :?
