LazyTown Forever

Re: LazyTown Forever

I wish I knew about the project earlier. Back then, I was kind of new to the community and I didn't know about it. When I actually learned about it, I was late by a few days and submissions were already over.

What I get for hesitating to join GetLazy

You're a bit late to the party sure, but you're a part of the celebration now, right?

Re: LazyTown Forever

I love this song and everything and everyone it celebrates! Stingy, how did you decide what LazyTown clips to sample and from which episodes, like the Robbie interlude from First Day of Summer/Little Pink Riding Hood?

Re: LazyTown Forever

Is there a list of when parts of songs from other LazyTown songs are used? I recognized the ending as the end song from GGIL, 'Master of Disguise' during the Robbie interlude, and 'Teamwork' at 1:48 but not much else.

Re: LazyTown Forever

Hi, thanks for your interest in the project.

In terms of what songs are sampled or referenced (musically), the list goes, in order of appearance: Welcome To LazyTown, Bing Bang, Cooking by the Book, New Games Everyday, We Are Number One, Teamwork, Have You Ever, Master of Disguise, Galaxy, Techno Generation, Allt í Lagi í Latabæ. There are other songs directly referenced lyrically, and some other small vocal samples pulled from songs, but I don't necessarily count those.

Regarding the video, it had the same premise as the song - create something that represents the heart and soul of LazyTown. I had some ideas in mind for particular clips I wanted to use, but there was still plenty of space to fill. I researched by watching the series front-to-back and making notes for clips that I thought would be good to represent LazyTown and a good fit for the look-and-feel of the video. Some clips I had to get creative with to make work, but I am very happy with the result.

THE LAZY DANCE ANYONE?

Re: LazyTown Forever

Something from The Lazy Dance was in the Techno Generation segment, it's the fourth clip when Robbie turns on the TV screens.

That was the scene I was thinking about. xD I wonder...
