Soon with the here we go ah ha ruins the song it sounds so lame it totally sucks they took away the great fuzz guitar and put a dance beat to it fuck that. They turned a great song into mainstream crap
-
The Andy Weatherall remix also samples the vocal from the excellent Claire Hamill track "Tides" from the "Voices" album (1986) -
Edited 5 years agoIf you're looking for the Weatherall mix on wax for a reasonable price, go here: https://discogs.sitiodesbloquea.com/Various-Keeping-The-Faith-A-Creation-Dance-Compilation/release/198931
This is a very good pressing with excellent sound quality, and most importantly, at a decent price. Some of the other songs on the comp are rather excellent as well. -

not that it's a competition, and as much as I love Weatherall; full length Glider > Soon remix

Edited 11 years agoWhile my personal knowledge of MBV's body of work was (and in a way remains) extremely low, the Weatherall remix version of "Soon" marked my teenage years with repeated listens and stayed forever. There is just something amazingly hysterical about this particular version - that the original, despite its own charm, cannot match.
From the strange clatter-rotating intro and cowbell-fueled groove, the song develops into a crazy combination of dub and dreamy goth, thanks to the drilling white noise and nasty guitar cut-ups (courtesy Gang Of Four). The "here we go" and "ah-huh" samples might appear a bit too funky (read: over the top) within a My Bloody Valentine context, but without them you can tell, something would be just as missing.
Inbetween, the seducing female vocal bits are sequenced into this adorable skip-and-go repetition, like sirens captured in a glass bottle, in their hazy dreamlike state - the liquid ingredient that threatens to burst but instead complements the ear with its purple lure.
Makes me dare say, I'm an MBV fanatic, due to this single track. -
Fantastic Weatherall workout of the MBV classic. It seems incredible that "Soon" could get more propulsive and sinuous, but there you go. Hats off and sabres rattled to Mr. Weatherall.

Another storming classic from the balearic days up there with Leftfield's Not Forgotten, great sample from Westbam Alarm Clock, awesome.
