The Blue Nile Vs Blade Runner

...nothing is impossible. And now, let's try it with the Alphabet song! You know what makes me think of Blade Runner imagery? Morning oatmeal. To be quite honest, I think of Blade Runner most of the time, anyway. Thanks for the video, though. Kick-ass stuff :)

wow brilliant concept. One of those things when u see them together u think "of course"...good work and has me thinking of other ones that could be done

Pretty good stuff, fascinating movie, and one incredibly underrated band too!

wow

you did a great job i dont want to fill you wit bullshit just class

nickmoron1 oops was thay a typo (youve heard that before) anyway why slag this off.Its not doing any harm and its better than the 20 second crap that some people on yt think is entertainment.Saw your video btw,jury out on that one,music is good though.

Why'oh,why,Pretty awful stuff.You seem to have done a fine job in dating this film.I just watched it after ten years or so and have'nt heard 'hats' in pretty much the same amount of time.you silly silly person.

PS: for those of you who haven't read Phillip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep, pls do! (Blade Runner's based on this great SciFi novel). Go for it! And listen to Hats as you do!

Prod . . . this is one of the best clips I've seen in the past 10yrs! Wonderful images matched to some of the most stunning music of the past 40yrs! Thank you so much for sharing this with us all . . .

wow thanks for the analogy, both of these pieces are darkly poetic and romantic .. takes me back

Wow. That was great. *favoritted*

Final Cut - awesome, but all versions are awesome soooo.... Differences are a bit 'so what' but it's just great seeing it on the big screen again.

I don't think I'd be that bothered about the whole new Vangelis Cd. Might try though.

As for this - pretty low tech. Used Fraps to rip from CD (great tool) and MemoriesOnWeb to pull it together. MOW is great, low tech but great.

Did you like the final cut? subtle differences, you could have a field day with the new vangelis bladerunner cd!, 2nd cd is unreleased tracks from the movie and cd3 is a brand new album from vangelis himself composing music inspired from Blade Runner!!

Did you notice the differences in the final cut? subtle but brilliant!, how did you edit this? timing was excellent!

Ahhh, thank you! Saw The Final Cut last night and the Vangelis music is obviously just lovely, but I couldn't stop thinking about The Blue Nile. Whatever... awesome, awesome flick.

Superb, hats off to you my friend, i love seeing images and music put together well, it puts a different slant on things you love. YOU HAVE DONE A MANS JOB.......

Great video! I'm a big fan of the film and of vangelis' music however, after watching this vid i'm begging to wonder if a couple of the scenes may have evoked more emotion if they had included softer and less electronic based music.

I'm probably biased because I think the Vangelis music fits the film so well and it would be difficult to beat.

I did think when I wrote the original post that 'From a Midnight Train' would be a better choice,as it is bleaker than the Downtown Lights and seems to fit the mood of the film.

By the way I just looked at your Edward Hopper-v-Blue Nile and it is brilliant. Hoppers Work amd the Blue Nile compliment each other perfectly.

Thanks a lot for the comment and the compliment.

I'm surprised you don't agree that Downtown Lights offers a similar bleak vision; 'sometimes I walk away, when all I really wanna do', 'how do I know you'll feel it?', 'rented rooms & rented cars'.

But for me, even more important is that both offer a degree of hope, a possibility of redemption; Deckard's final scenes with Rachel, 'the golden lights, the loving prayers'.

Still, at least we agree that both the film & band are awesome!

Bladerunner (in all its versions) is one of favourite films. The Blue Nile is my favourite band.

This video is a beautifully put together but The Blue Nile and Bladerunner don't mix well. The Downtown Lights is the wrong choice of track and does not match the bleakness of the film

This is brilliant! I will now always recall the images from BR when I hear this song.

my favourite album my favourite movie sheer class..... thank you

Another proof that 80's were Olympus of it all...

the best film ever i must have seen it 300 times and the band is class a friend told me about them just class

the blue nile are an amazing group so stylish and suave only brian ferry holds a candle to them

"You've done a man's job, sir!" Excellent! Nice choice of track! Keep it up! :-D
