Flink moeten dokken aan Barry? Bij mijn weten hebben ze enkel een pond of 7000 aan de filmstudio betaald, aangezien ze het opnieuw hebben opgenomen ivp van de originele sample te gebruiken. Barry heeft bij sommige scores gedeeltelijk de rechten in handen, maar stel dat hij die ook bij YOLT had, dan kon dat dus nooit veel gekost hebben.
had deze reactie toen gemist ...
klopt niet - eerst zouden ze bijna 70,000 GB pond moeten betalen (toen ongeveer kwart miljoen gulden) om samples te gebruiken - toen dachten ze dat om die zelf weer op te nemen hun geld zouden besparen - die 7000 dat jij quote komt gewoon van een wikepedia pagina en dat zegt natuurlijk genoeg
maar kort na de release werd er besloten door advocaten dat John Barry recht had op de helft van de royalties voor millenium (de single, maar dus ook van elke live optreden, radio play, en gedeelte van album waar het op zat!)
ik denk dat jij deze artikel heb gelezen on tot jou conclusie te komen ...
"It was up to Chrysalis Records, Robbie's record company, to find out what the deal would be if we used the original sample. It turned out that we would have to pay a lot of money to the company that originally made the film -- I think the figure was around £60,000. In comparison, recording it again was going to cost between £6,000 and £7,000 -- so unsurprisingly, we did it again! We used a 26-piece string section, a harp and four French horns. We added the French horn parts and changed the string part a bit, using Nick Ingmann to rearrange them. It's not exactly the same as the original arrangement, which was in the wrong key for 'Millennium', although we did want it to sound like the original sample in the choruses and we did refer to John Barry's original score for that."
maar hiernaar moest Williams en Guy Chambers toch 50% van de royalties aan John Barry geven voor Millenium ... lees dan ook deze gedeelte van een interview met Guy Chambers in 2005:
Although you and Robbie are quite capable of writing songs together, I can’t understand why you chose to give royalties away as in Millennium.
Why is that odd?
Well, I would presume that you would want to own 100 per cent of the songs?
Yeah, but music isn’t about money and splits, is it? We both had very open minds about borrowing music, which is how I’d like to put it – ‘recycling’ is an even better word. When Robbie had the idea of sampling the James Bond theme, You Only Live Twice, part of me thought, ‘Oh Christ, this is going to be at least half the song gone’, but the other half thought, ‘That is a brilliant idea.’ When that sample kicks in at a gig, it is one of his highlights of the show. It is so iconic and so big, and I love having a co-write with John Barry. How else would I be able to do that?
Has John Barry been in touch with you?
I met him once when he did a concert at the Royal Albert Hall, but he had mixed feelings about it. That was just when we had done it and it hadn’t become the big song that it is now. He probably has a different opinion about it now as it will have made him a lot of money. (Laughs) I love John Barry’s work and I regard him as a genius: he writes brilliant tunes and creates incredible riffs.
duidelijk toch?
