Title: End of Days Post by: kyrie on July 31, 2024, 05:37:22 PM Crazy to think that this was 25 years ago now but... does anyone else find it really strange that Oh My God was a big part of the promotion for End of Days (1999), featured heavily in TV spots at the time, was a huge mover for the soundtrack, which was certified Platinum... but buried in the film itself, barely audible in one scene then dumped at the end of the credits?
One of those TV spots below... just rewatched it, a bit of an uneven film but it has its moments. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vb4tdIDoaI4 Title: Re: End of Days Post by: Oliver on July 31, 2024, 05:59:04 PM I always loved that song. It sucks that's it's not on streaming services in many countries, including here in Canada.

Didn't realize it wasn't. Glad I have a copy of the EOD soundtrack then!

Not really. Filmmakers are gonna use songs as necessary in the movie. It served its purpose as a promotional tool. The promos for the movie are how I discovered the song.

Me too, as it goes I think the soundtrack as a whole stands up as a pretty good list, even if I only bought it for that one track Title: Re: End of Days Post by: willow on August 05, 2024, 03:33:51 AM love the song, wish it would have been played live more.
Title: Re: End of Days Post by: jarmo on August 05, 2024, 04:46:32 AM Great song.
Often forgotten because the movie wasn't a huge hit and the song has kinda disappeared over time. Not available on Spotify or any GN'R releases. /jarmo Title: Re: End of Days Post by: The Wight Gunner on August 05, 2024, 09:41:20 AM Great song. Often forgotten because the movie wasn't a huge hit and the song has kinda disappeared over time. Not available on Spotify or any GN'R releases. /jarmo They (the sound track) still pop up on eBay and Amazon, occasionally on Vinyl too. Oddly you can download it from Amazon but it doesn't include OMG Title: Re: End of Days Post by: jarmo on August 06, 2024, 05:17:01 AM It's odd.
Wonder if it's all because it's a soundtrack and licensing reasons. /jarmo Title: Re: End of Days Post by: The Wight Gunner on August 06, 2024, 05:51:53 AM It's odd. Wonder if it's all because it's a soundtrack and licensing reasons. /jarmo I blame Fernando :hihi: Title: Re: End of Days Post by: Oliver on August 06, 2024, 08:52:10 AM Looking forward to the music box version. :P

It's available on Spotify. I'm playing it now. Well, not where I am. Might be certain regions then. /jarmo Title: Re: End of Days Post by: Oliver on August 07, 2024, 09:06:08 AM I think it's available in the US, but in many countries it's not.
I wish they would play it live again. Title: Re: End of Days Post by: willow on August 11, 2024, 02:05:56 PM It wasn't available for a long time on Spotify but is now in US.
Title: Re: End of Days Post by: Gavgnr on August 12, 2024, 02:06:29 AM Wonder if we’ll ever hear a NITL version?
Title: Re: End of Days Post by: Bridge on August 12, 2024, 10:23:52 AM Wonder if we’ll ever hear a NITL version? Like all of the post-original songs, it would be interesting to hear it live with Slash and Duff. Title: Re: End of Days Post by: jarmo on October 11, 2024, 05:33:03 AM Like all of the post-original songs, it would be interesting to hear it live with Slash and Duff. Would be interesting. I think that it's such a deep cut that some would assume it's a new song! /jarmo Title: Re: End of Days Post by: Gavgnr on October 12, 2024, 05:23:39 AM I remember blasting this tune whilst driving in the early noughtiies.
Absolutely love it Title: Re: End of Days Post by: slashsbaconpit on October 17, 2024, 10:31:22 AM It's odd. Wonder if it's all because it's a soundtrack and licensing reasons. /jarmo I blame Fernando I blame jarmo! Nah, clearly this is all the fault of slashsbaconpit. What a nerd! |
