    I just spoke to someone at the Royal Albert Hall and they "accidentally" let slip that Adele will be performing SF live at the premiere.
  • I was going to wait until the official release to hear more but I couldn't resist. It a great song. Wasn't too sure at first about the backing chorus that kicks in but after a few listens I have warmed to that. Will listen to the full version later as I was really getting into it when it cut off...

    You're kidding no?? That'll be tough...but bloody awesome :-D. Has never been done before if I can recall. But I have always wondered if this could actually be done for real.

    I was the same as you. The backing chorus had me not sure. But then i likened to it. I think it makes it feel more epic actually. When that kicked in, i got goosebumps lol.

    Itunes still says the 5th in the U.S. I wouldn't worry, BG.

    What a coup for EON and everyone involved. The song must be that good then.

    Well there will be some very lucky people there then! Not just the cast and the movie? But the song being performed live too! Consider me VERY jealous! ~X(

    That would be awesome but hey, I just thought I'd share what I was told. Communication these days from people who should know certain things is questionable at best lately; an example being the whole omega fiasco. But here's hoping it really will go ahead and the reason why? Turns out someone close to me got me a ticket for the premiere! I'm going!!!! Restricted viewing block x though.

    Just listened to the radio edit. It's okay.Neither very good nor very bad. Serviceable I'd call it.

    I like the way it tells a bit of a story, like the old songs.

    @MrEon dropped me a hint about this in a message weeks ago and I was too stupid to figure it out. It makes sense now, cheers.
  • I must admit, the song is growing on me after about 10-15 listens. Maybe it's the Bond theme overtones or something. That always gets me going.

    NO probz. In fact, the reason why she let it slip was because I was asking about restricted viewing seats and possibly needing a telescope but she said the screen is big enough and that with restricted viewing you just might not be able to see some of the musicians that will be part of Adele's orchestra.

    *mind was blown*

    I have the mp3 now. It is indeed cut at the start and the end. But the entire full-blown climax is actually on it. Just send me a PM.

    It's gone but never fear, the real version is coming in just over three hours. So be patient. Not long left.

    I think I'm the only one here who's still watching the countdown. Everyone else either listened to the radio recording or is waiting for the movie ;)
  • I didn't close down the link the last time i listened to it and when i reopened it the song is still there...

    If you close the link it will be taken down. However keep the window open and you're able to play the song as many times as you like.

    By the time I caved in and decided to listen it was too late, so I'm back to the countdown.

    I thought about waiting for the film but it'll be on the radio anyway so I'll hear it at some point before then.
