I had the exact same reaction when I heard My Bloody Valentine. The only places I've heard My Bloody Valentine outside of my own CD collection is in the movie Lost in Translation and in Top Gear. My eyes literally bulged and my jaw nearly hit the floor when I heard it in Top Gear.peagiddy said:zenon said:That is a great song from a very very great band. If anyone is looking for some new music to listen to I would highly recommend TV on the Radio's album 'Desperate Youth, Blood Thirsty Babes'.peagiddy said:42:05 - 42:16 - TV on the Radio - Staring at the Sun
You're right. I dig this band very much. I was very enthused and a little shocked to hear it on an episode of Top Gear! I thought I had left iTunes running in the background...
Is 'Lamb - Angelica' at 51:42 - 52:36 incorrect then?HeJo said:19:11-19:40 and 20:31 - 21:28 - Johann Strauss II - An der sch?nen, blauen Donau (On the Beautiful, Blue Danube), waltz for orchestra, Op. 314 (RV 314)
and the 51:42 - 52:36 bit is a classical piece by Claude Debussy, Suite bergamasque, for piano, L. 75 "Clair De Lune". Might be incorporated in the Song Angelica though, haven't heard it...
zenon said:Also, do the titles for the songs have to be as long as they are? I sort of shortened the name for the Strauss piece... is there parts of the name that are more important to have than others?
mad_dr said:Hi everyone,
New to these forums so thanks for having me! Hope to be able to make a contribution at some point - especially as my fav music seems to be cropping up in Top Gear more and more these days (Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, Amon Tobin, Autechre etc)
Sorry to dredge up this episode - it's over a month old now, I know, but I just CAN'T find the details of a track that I'm desperate to get hold of. I don't have a copy of the episode in digi format (and to be honest, I have no idea how you guys timestamp the tracks so accurately - do you measure the time elapsed from the start of the opening credits? From the END of the opening credits? Anyway...)
The song I'm after was used in the DB9 article and was around 25 seconds long. It begins IMMEDIATELY after Hammond says the word "wobblier" when describing the feel of the convertible DB9, compared to the Hard-top. I've used Amazon to 'preview' all the tracks currently listed in this thread, for that segment, but I know it's not Groove Armada and most of the other listings don't sound like the snippets on Amazon AT ALL.
I have a WAV of this particular bit of the segment (digitised by a friend on another forum,) which is here: http://www.lensflair.org/topgear2.wav
I hope someone can help me!
Cheers!
Andy

Dude, it IS "Hands of Time" by Groove Armada. It's the same song used in the taxi ride scene at the start of Collateral (the scene with Jada Pinkett Smith and Jamie Foxx). If you look on the Collateral soundtrack, you'll find the song there.

fussychicken said:16:02 - 16:44 - Good lord this section is hauntingly spooky! Probably from another soundtrack which means its going to be hard as hell to ID, but if anyone knows it please put me out of my misery!!
