WMcD Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 The CD of the Yellow Submarine is broken down into tracks. I was not able to find the Blue Meany track alone on YouTube. But listen here at 2:30. Compare it to the Darth Vader theme. Pretty close. Smile. WMcD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvu80 Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 John Williams has been accused of "borrowing" some thematic material from other composers for the Star Wars music. I don't remember all the references but I'm there are some. Famous composers have been ripping off each others' works for centuries. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Go back to the original source if you want to find a similarity. The orchestral arrangement you chose to present is already tainted by the arranger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMcD Posted August 27, 2016 Author Share Posted August 27, 2016 You guys are a tough audience. Pull at my necktie, "I get no respect." I went to a store to buy some Klipsch. The salesman said, "A man of your intelligence should buy Bose." No respect, I tell you. OTimer, the CD (arranged by George Martin?) is about the same as the YouTube. I put this up as humor rather than a copyright infringement action. Smile, WMcD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted August 27, 2016 Share Posted August 27, 2016 As Thebes will attest, and I will back him up, there is nothing funny about the boy band in question, unless you like the colossal joke played upon the public which has shown no musical discretion in the matter. (crap. do I have to put "smile" or one of those stupid pictures at the end?) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
