My headphones are sort of broken right now, so when I plug them in just the right way, I mainly get only certain audio coming through clearly.
So I've been listening to "imperfect" instrumentals of the LBT songs. I can still sort of hear the singing, so I've used the russian versions (so the foreign dub won't be as distracting as the english lyrics I know), and I gotta say, they're pretty good, from what I've heard. The instrumental of "The Lone Dinosaur" song is just beautiful, showing how despite the occasional not-so-great singing and lyrics, Michelle and Amanda have a gift for melody. And "Very Important Creature"...just, wow!
It makes me wonder why, exactly, they chose not to put instrumental versions of the songs over the credits to sort of "recap" the movie, like they always did with PB&J Otter. Not that the score that went with movies 2-8 wasn't some of the most beautiful music I've heard, but...considering the age demographic and quality of the sequels (yeah, I'm starting to see them for their flaws---hate me!
), I feel instrumentals of the movie's songs would suit better.
Now, this made me think of something I discovered several years back, when I was having my LBT obsession and was in my early days on this forum.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tHZrJ5cTOrQAs you can see, the trailer contains an instrumental of a song from the movie. Does that mean it's possible to somehow mute the singing and make instrumentals? If so, this would be an excellent thing to get on here, since as far as I know none have been made!
Unless that's the announcement that was gonna be made...!
