A question about Virus (the song)

[Wrathchild]

Did Blaze record separate vocal tracks for the full length and single edit versions? I've been listening to both quite a bit lately, and I think I've found a few subtle differences. Nothing major, but still there to be heard.

I haven't heard the single version but it wouldn't surprise me. Given the choice between recording a separate version (and singers would do multiple takes anyway) and hacking it to pieces I think they'd go with the former.

 

[Wrathchild]

Would you like a copy of the single version, Spiff? I'm sure it can be arranged .

[Spiff]

Nah, that's OK - I really can't stand the song so I don't mind giving it a miss.

 

[Sydo]

Maiden don't do multiple takes of anything anymore.

 

[spawn]

They just rerelease old stuff, its cheaper. Boom boom.

 

[Spiff]

Sydo - no, it just sounds like they don't.

 

[Sydo]

I felt like listening to Virus thanks to this thread, but after selling Best Of The Beast I don't have it.

 

[Southy]

well thats your fault girly man

 

[Sydo]

yep

 

[Southy]

good acknowledge it...

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I have the single for that very reason Sydo. It was cheaper than the best of.
