Triad Video

[freakykiter]

I was looking at the Danish forum and saw a clip of the Triad video, does any one know were I can get or see the whole video? :) thanks..
Dallas

[Farguss]

Yeah, that seems great!

Anyone knows about a full version? :)

[Anticubital]

Great find, Dallas! Would love to see a full version...she does such an amazing cover of the song.

[Daneska]

There's also a small intro to the song where she talks a bit about her dreams and hobbies as a child - something about ballet and girl scouts. :p

The songs recorded for the two albums "Sange fra 1. sal" (Songs from the first floor) and "Flere sange fra 1. sal" (More songs from the first floor) has apparently been filmed and made into a series, which is still shown on national Danish TV - one video every Friday night at 8:50pm.

Nevertheless, I haven't been able to find a copy of the videos - don't even know if it has even been possible to buy a dvd with all of the videos. :confused:

Yay! :D You found it - unfortunately it's sold out for the time being. Weird, 'cause I've really searched for that title everywhere. :confused: It also says that it's a limited edition.

Found the first one (http://www.brugt.dk/?side=vis&id=40798&PHPSESSID=a47f20dfcf486739807f655fc641f2e6) ("Sange fra 1. sal") too!

Yes, I found those too. The first link is someone LOOKING FOR the DVD - a buyer. The second link is for the CD only - or so I thought. But apparently there were two different editions.

Yeah, er...I'm not very good at Danish! :rolleyes:

Yeah, Click Here (http://www.imusic.dk/page/search?combined=&artist=&title=flere+sange+fra&composer=&released=0&releaseDate%5Bmon%5D=1&releaseDate%5Byear%5D=1970&releaseCountryId=0&releaseCode=&genreId=0&mediaGroupId=0&search=Search+the+catalogue&_form=searchForm) and (same site) you see both editions listed, one at DKK69.95 listed as just CD, and one at DKK149.95 listed as "CD / DVD edition".

[Daneska]

Yeah, er...I'm not very good at Danish! :rolleyes:

...which makes it even more embarrassing for me, not to have been able to find the information. :o :p

[Geof]

Hmmm, I don't know about anyone else, but I have spent more than a half-hour trying to order the CD/DVD from this place, and it keeps coming up with an error message saying my information isn't correct. They appear to ship anywhere, so being in the U.S. shouldn't be a problem, as I selected that from the pull-down address list. I've tried all sorts of variations of my street address, zip, etc. and it just won't go through.

Customer service doesn't open until Monday... :(

A question: based on the comments here, it surprisingly doesn't seem anyone actually has this CD/DVD set, despite it being out for nearly two years! Before I go spending $40 or more to get this, and if anyone actually does have this: Does the DVD contain her complete performance of Triad, or just some excerpt blended in with interview, etc.? Live in the studio, or in front of an audience? Thanks for any further info!

Is only the CD/DVD version available? Or is there a DVD by itself?

[Geof]

Hopefully one of the Danish members can answer these questions...based on the store link, there's only a CD and CD/DVD combo, but not a DVD by itself. Too bad the store doesn't list any contents of the DVD...

[Daneska]

Does the DVD contain her complete performance of Triad, or just some excerpt blended in with interview, etc.? Live in the studio, or in front of an audience?

As far as I know (and have seen from the TV clips) the DVD consists of the music "videos" of every song, AND before each video there's a short interview with each artist where he/she tells about his/her reason for performing that exact song.

Almost all of the artists are Danish (there's a Norwegian and a Greenlandic artist among them too), and they have chosen to do a cover of a song, which they like.

The videos and interviews were all shot on the 1st floor of a building in Christiania (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freetown_Christiania) - which is also why the CD's/DVD got the title "Sange fra 1. sal" (songs from the 1st floor)/"Flere sange fra 1. sal" (More songs from the 1st floor).

As far as I was able to figure out from the description of the cd/dvd, the tracklist for the dvd is as follows:
01. TINA DICKOW – Triad (David Crosby)
02. MARIE FRANK - Reason To Believe (Tim Hardin)
03. MAYA ALBANA - Get It On (Marc Bolan)
04. KIRSTINE STUBBE TEGLBJÆRG - Ain’t No Sunshine (Bill Withers)
05. STINE HJELM - Dancing Barefoot (Patti Smith)
06. THOMAS DYBDAHL - Song To The Siren (Tim Buckley)
07. ANGU – Heroes (David Bowie)
08. KAREN – Feel Like Makin’ Love (Roberta Flack)
09. SZHIRLEY – Mercy Mercy Me (Marvin Gaye)
10. LAUST SONNE – You Really Got Me (Ray Davies)

However, the tracklist of the cd (Flere sange fra 1. sal) is this:
01. KIRSTINE STUBBE TEGLBJÆRG - Ain't No Sunshine
02. KAREN - Feel Like Makin' Love
03. MAYA ALBANA - Get It On
04. ANGU - Heroes
05. SZHIRLEY - Mercy Mercy Me
06. MARIE FRANK - Reason To Believe
07. LAUST SONNE - You Really Got Me
08. TINA DICKOW - Triad
09. STINE HJELM - Dancing Barefoot
10. THOMAS DYBDAHL - Song To The Siren


On Danish TV they show both videos from the first and second cd, but only 5 music videos were made for the first cd (2004). The success of the first cd (Sange fra 1. sal) and especially the making of the five "pause-videos" for the Danish National TV channel was so big that it was decided to make yet another cd (Flere sange fra 1. sal - 2005) AND this time around make videos for ALL the songs. The limited "cd with bonus DVD" edition was released for purchase in 2006.

[freakykiter]

Thanks everyone for the info! I will try to order one later in the week. :D

[Anticubital]

Our's arrived. The video with Tina is really cool. :D Money well spent. Can't wait to watch the rest of it.

Cheers.

Did you like the small interview leading up to the music video as well??? :p ;)

:D Fun watching and listening to the interview..could not understand a word obviously! LOL!

[Anticubital]

Am slowly getting through the DVD and interviews...was immediately drawn to the video of Thomas Dybdahl singing Song To The Siren as we love that song! Have been a fan of Tim Buckley for many years, and Thomas does a kick ass performance on this DVD! :cool:

[Daneska]

:D Fun watching and listening to the interview..could not understand a word obviously! LOL!

Of course you couldn't. And unfortunately I'm not of much help here, as I've only seen/heard the clip once a couple of weeks ago when it was shown on Danish TV. And I was cooking dinner at the same time, so I wasn't really concentrating on what was said.

I managed to catch some of the beginning where she was talking about wanting to take ballet classes when she was a kid and joining the girl scouts... :D

Recieved mine friday, Yes this is money will spent! All of the artists are really good! :D

[Geof]

Yes, I received mine over a week ago. There's some very cool stuff on the CD by other artists I've never heard of.

Yeah, too bad Tina's interview doesn't have optional English subtitles, since she has lots of fans worldwide, but this release is obviously very much intended for Denmark. But, she's so beautiful that just watching her talk is enough...haha!

The performance appears to be lip-synched to the recorded version, with different camera angles and overdubbed harmonies and so on that couldn't have been shot live as she was actually singing, along with shots of the percussionist playing away in the background yet you don't hear any percussion in the song at that point! But it's excellent and I am really happy to have a great copy of "Triad" on CD...

I still think she should put this on one of her own albums (maybe a deluxe reissue version of Count To Ten? With "Magic" added as well? Maybe the itunes set? Tee-hee...c'mon, you know it could happen!); I think it would get airplay in the U.S. due to familiarity with the song. Old hippies such as myself remember very well first hearing Grace Slick's haunting version of "Triad" on the Jefferson Airplane's Crown of Creation album.
