    I like that in these older versions, the choirs feel much fuller. You really feel the size of Odysseus' army and just how many Lotus Eaters actually inhabit the island but the overall vocal performances are better in the newer versions (except for Warrior of the Mind. In this version the instruments are much more powerful if not a bit overpowering at times and the deep droning bass is so cool. And I can finally hear the "you lied to me" clearly)

    in my opinion, this older version of full speed ahead sounds better because it actually sounds like 600 men singing "make it back alive to our home land" when the remastered version only sounds like at most odys ships crew is singing that line

    • @danganidot

      it might sound fuller, but it’s more flat than the new version. the new version’s vocals are louder and more harmonious, so they needed less layers of vocals to provide the same effect.

    The only complaint i have about the new ones are the lotus eaters. Ive grown used to them now, but when i first heard them i just didnt want to listen to open arms at all (even though it was my fav song). I have such a soft spot for the old ones and listening to full speed ahead and open arms just fills me with warmth and i love it

  • @gitgud_kryz1738
    @gitgud_kryz1738 10 วันที่ผ่านมา +4

    Here are my thoughts:
    1. Horse and the Infant and Just a Man - I like this better than the re-record. Mainly because of the raw emotions involved on Jorge's voice. Don't get me wrong, the new version sounds good too along with better instruments but the way the two songs are arranged in the older version just emphasized the emotions behind his voice. Although the background ensemble on "When does a man become a monster?", the re-recorded was better.
    2. Full Speed Ahead - oh god. I like the ensemble, its just so raw with less instruments. It actually feels like 600 men are talking.
    3. Open Arms - I can actually hear Polities clearly.
    4. Warrior of the Mind - again Athena's vocals are in emphasis. While the re recorded emphasizes on the blend of vocals and motifs.
    My conclusion:
    The Troy Saga feels like it was recorded for a Broadway/ Live Play Show with emphasis on the vocals and emotions behind it. Don't get me wrong but the re recorded version sounds cleaner (less hints of auto - tune) but it sounds like it was recorded for a clean album while this original re-recording is for live play. Both are great actually. Its a matter of preference. I just wish Jorge can get this back.

      I'm pretty tone deaf (not sure if it's the right word) I can't really tell things apart when it comes to music, so I can't tell the difference between the older version of those two songs with the new ones. I can only tell a bit at the start of Warriors of the Mind where the singing part comes in a bit later. What are the differences between the old and newer ones of Warriors of the Mind and Goodbye? The instrument? I've been going back and forth between these two songs to compare to the old one (since I'm only listening to the songs with Athena in it), and I can't tell the difference other than the older one's instruments can be louder at times in the old version

      are you talking about layering the vocals on top of the official versions instrumentals? because the instrumentals are the same, and layering the vocals on top of eachother would be messy, because they’re completely different in the line delivery at times and how fast/slow they sing the lines.

Moral grandstanding aside, these have special places in people’s hearts, they should be enjoyed.
