“Certainly the best-produced pop-music presentation I’ve ever seen — that’s a summary of the Monkees in concert at the massive 10,000-seater Wembley Pool. Constant changes of costume from the boys, with color stills and movies shown on a huge screen, and a tremendous amount of verve and apparent improvisations from the four boys.
But the noise from the fans was so tremendous that it was virtually impossible to judge exactly how good they are on their instruments. Even so, Mike Nesmith produced some frantic guitar sounds; Micky Dolenz hammered his drum with total abandon; Davy used maracas, tambourine, mini-organ and (once) bass; Peter Tork moved from bass to organ and back again. Vocally the boys were fine — in movement and style and sheer dynamic presence.” - Record Mirror, July 8, 1967
“Peter Tork seemed to be happy whether he was on organ, bass guitar or banjo.” - Beat Instrumental reviews The Monkees’ Wembley concert, August 1967
“It’s very flattering of you to say that my solo banjo piece at the Wembley show was one of the highlights. It’s a facet of me that I would like to flower — though I don’t know when it will.” - Peter Tork, Disc & Music Echo, January 13, 1968
“[O]n being informed that ‘your banjo-playing was for many of us the highlight of your concerts here,’ he murmured a quick ‘that’s very kind of you’ and brushed off the questioner. Compliments wash against him like so much spray on a cliff-face.” - Fabulous 208, January 17, 1968
Is there a music analysis of Wreck-It Ralph anywhere? (I'm sure there is) Cuz I've been listening to the soundtrack and ... EHEHHEHEH.. I love musical character motifs
I made a short video on an example I especially liked between Vanellope and King Candy :)
Basically he STOLE her leitmotif, like he stole everything else of hers
The second addition to the instrumental crate is now public! If you've got music over on Spotify that you'd like me to add to the list (or maybe an artist/song that you think should be thrown into the mix), shoot me a message and let me know!
This time we have Danny as a woman.
We also have Siren AU where Danny is a singer with an incredible voice.
so enter the scene:
one of Bruce's most honored business partners, organized a New Year's Eve party, the whole family was invited, along with many other partners and businessmen.
The party starts without problems, the background music is perfect, neither too loud nor too low, and can be heard throughout the room.
All of the Batkids manage to not fall into their chaotic tendencies and mostly stick together, until the main "act" arrives.
A beautiful woman in a one-piece black dress walks onto the main stage, the musicians prepare for the performance.
without introduction, the woman begins to sing:

While the melody invaded the party, the gaze of (insert member of the bat clan here) could not depart from the beautiful blue eyes of the song, everything would be perfect if it were not because suddenly a group of criminals burst into the party, destroying the magnificent atmosphere created by the melody.
Although as strange as it may seem, the bad guys on duty were not here for the rich and very rich businessmen and their families (jewelry, money) but for the group of musicians and their lead singer.
Everyone from the public, the musicians, the waiters and the singer seemed not to understand the criminals' demands at first, but when they saw that there was no turning back, the group decided to go with them to prevent the guests from being hurt.
As the singer passed by (insert bat here) she pretended to trip and hand him a small device while I thanked him for catching it, winking discreetly, the message is clear.
