Hi folks,

That was fun, I've been waiting ages for an excuse to use that music, a prize of the first bottle of d'Alfie to the first Purrson to name it and the name of the arranger ;D. Don't forget to place your orders for your menfolk in advance as I'm anticipating that demand will be quite high once the cable channels receive the ad.. Alfie get cracking and fill those handy cat-shaped re-fillable containers mentioned in the advert. No Alfie not the chair leg the containers, the the containers Alfie!, oh well it might take longer than I anticipated to gear up to full production.

Eau d'Alfie movie transcript : a fragrance as old as time itself, the frangrance of cats, a natural fragrance, Supplied in handy cat-shaped re-fillable containers, Alfie the fragrance for men by Purrlain of Paris, well Kingston actually but Paris sounds posher  ;D

Cheers

Post by: LeighK on January 06, 2008, 16:50:35 PM
Yes it is David Bowie, but this version of the song is not the one that you'll find on any of his albums  it was arranged by a famous Italian arranger.

I think there's a time warp there chuck  ;D I think the only way that these guys would have got together in a studio is with the help of the Tardis  ;D. Think modern(ish) Italian pop arranger.

Seems to me it has a touch of Enrico Morricone...  ;D  and at least he is "modernish" compared to Verdi or Rossini ... ;)

Ah, Giorgio Moroder!  :wow: His birthplace gave it away, we have holidayed in the region a couple of times yeah I witnessed the mention of him several times while we were there!

edited to add: oh dang and blast, it was Oliver's fault he woke up and started talking to me just as I opened the reply box, while I was rubbing his tummy Den beat me to it!!  :Crazy: :-[ :shy:

Yes well done Den. thought the birthplace was a bit iof a give away, this version was from the film of the same name in which Bowie starred, kind of appropriate for a cat forum don't you think  ;D

You can download it from i-tunes

It wasn't a classic film IMO, a remake of the original but the soundtrack stuck in my mind and I much prefer this version tot the one he released.  

Well done to everyone for joining in the fun  ;D

On my way to Bonnie's panto

Hiya,

Not too scary, it's the same sort of ultrasound thingy that they give pregnant women, well obviously they use the scanner thing a bit further up, around the heart area actually, called an echo-cardiagram, they use loads of that gunky cold gell stuff. They are being pretty thorough, hope I don't have to wait too long for the results.

Glad you liked the movie lucy   ;D

Cheers
