This probably isn't worth starting a new topic on, but it will hopefully at least stir a short-lived FB muso chin-rubbing debate: the other day, it kind of just popped into my head that the "ooh-ooh-ooh-ohh" bits in Threshold really remind me of the Motorway To Roswell. Anyone like to shoot this crap theory down?! |

You're right!
The last time I said it was EDF about motorway.
But it was Norton about Navajo... |

I can start a topic about mutant apes if you like. Just to balance things out...

There's one part on "threshold" where Violet sounds exactly like Kim. Exactly. You know the part?
So now you've got me revved up to listen Trompe Le Monde. I haven't spun that crazy action for a long time.
misterwoe, out.

I allways remember Gil Norton in 91 saying "motorway to rosewell" was how he imagined the pixies in the future, how their next album could sound...
So he was right in a way. It was for the next Black Francis album. |

I bet that part of the song actualy became motorway, as Treshold was an unfinished song from the pixies era.
Good point, hmmm, forgot about that. The plot thickens, or maybe I'm just clutching at straws......

It's not as crap as you might think, Charlos. The chord sequence during the "ooh-oohs" is exactly the same as Motorways verses, just different chords.
Yes ! It's the motorway to rosewell chord sequence with a rythm more like gouge away...
