Cute little Vanessa story from 11/17
« on: November 18, 2003, 05:40:52 pm »
well, im a big fan of Counting Crows so I read all of Adam's updates. you may or may not know that they never actually met to record BYT or anything. He posted this yesterday. I thought it was so cute.

Posted by Adam:
BIG YELLOW TAXIS: So I’m pulling up to the hotel in New York City coming in from Berkeley at about 1am last night and there’s this girl standing on the curb who looks strangely familiar. I’m staring at her through the window trying to figure out how I know her. I get out of the car and she looks at me and says, “Adam? Are you Adam?” I said yes and she says, “Hi, I’m Vanessa, I sing with you sometimes.” It was Vanessa Carlton. How wild is that? So we finally met. She was really cool.

nope. the version without her was done way before they even had plans to do the duet. they just added her little parts in there.

that's how a lot of duets are made these days.  I wonder if she recorded the whole song or just the little oo bop bop parts.......hmmmm, I smell a REALLY rare track!

They didn't meet to do the video?! Or did he never watch the video?

i don't believe they ever were in the same frame in the video, it could easily have been done simultaneously

in this wonderfully digital age... where artists collaberate without ever even meeting up... A similar thing happened with Nelly Furtado over the summer... Well, not exactly... But the video she did with Juanes, called fotografia, was shot without the 2 actually being on the same set.  They took the 2 seperate footages and put em together for the final video... they have no scenes together... just like in the BYT video.
