The guitar part sounded cool and then it faded out  :(
I wish Private Radio had the guitar part...
I hope there is more guitar on her new album, as long as it doesn't distract from Vanessa's piano... although I do doubt it, she seems to be getting more and more 'pop'.....


I know, I love the part at the end of this clip...  I hope we see some more of V's rock side on the new album  :D

Y'know, that song actually sounds pretty good; not commercial album material, though. It sounds more like a demo to me. I always wondered what was the name of the song that didn't make BNN that I saw on one of her videos on AOL Search, which was 'the making of BNN'. So Private Radio is the recycled version of this song... sorry, but I prefer Private Radio better.

I actually like this better than the Harmonium Private Radio.

...it sounds more "creepy", one of Vanessa's "Vanessa dark" songs.
I think the beat is better. it sounds a little bit faster, which I always like.

I also love how she does the da-da-da da-da-da da-da-da-da-da-da, like how she performed Private Radio live.

listening to Private Radio from Harmonium, then listening to 'just the thing'
only confirms how freakin awesome the fastness of this clip is.

It always bugged me a little bit how most of the songs on Harmonium were played slower than how Vanessa normally plays them live.
I've always preferred it when she plays things fast. :twisted:

I guess some people take things too seriously. Anyway, it sounds good, but I like PR better. It's just more professional-sounding.

Wow. I like the piano, guitar and drums better in this than Private Radio. But I agree, the lyrics are way worse. haha

maybe they were her "working lyrics"
many songwriters use any words to write the melody part, and then scrap those words and use better, more thought-out lyrics later, once the tune etc. is down-pat...

yea, when I watched it I was pretty convinced that those were scrap lyrics.  Otherwise, yea... pretty bad.
