Title: Favorite Version of "Big Water"?
Post by: Kron the Iguanadon on October 27, 2011, 11:51:37 PM
Throughout the years of the Land before time, the song "Big Water" made three appearences---in movie 5 in 1997, when in was portrayed as a song to show the gang's fear of the water, in movie 9, when it was turned into a fun song to pass the time, to the tv series, where...I didn't really watch the episode so I'm just gonna say where it was sung again just for the heck of it, but this time with Chomper, Ruby, and even Mo, who supposedly could not sing. The one that we all knew and loved was the one from number 5, seeing as it was, for a kids movie, a truly dark and intimidating song, whereas the others were turned into something lush and nice. I know the first will win by a landslide...but I felt like making this post for fun, just for the heck of it! (I'm allowed to do that here, right?)

Anyways, enjoy voting. Just for reference, here are the different versions of the song.

Both 5 and 9's versions:

And the series':

You'll notice the instrumental arrangement is different each time, going from almost a cross between rock and big band jazz, to fully orchestral, to pourly choreograped with very little thought of instrumental usage. Which is why I'd be highly surprised if the tv series version gets ANY votes.
