Title: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite? Post by: SuperSummerTime on September 25, 2014, 07:22:53 PM Does anyone know if there is an interview or some sort of source that tells us what Brian Wilson thought about Ken Levine's quartet rendition of probably his most famous song, "God Only Knows" heard in BioShock Infinite?

Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite? Post by: ontor pertawst on September 25, 2014, 07:27:49 PM I didn't try it when it came out but holy cow... that was surreal as hell to suddenly hear that song being sung while giving it a try on my Oculus DK2 last week! What fun to wander around that world in cludgy hacked-in VR.
BRIANVOICE: "It blew my mind!" Would've been nice for that quartet to pop back in later with a little taste of "Heroes and Villains" or a blast of the "Roll Plymouth Rock" chants Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite?

Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite? Post by: MugginsXO on September 25, 2014, 07:42:12 PM Ken Levine has stated that BW has not been made aware of it. Also that the process of clearing the brilliant barbershop version of God Only Knows was too costly for the soundtrack!
My favourite video game in existence. Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite? Post by: Shady on September 25, 2014, 07:44:34 PM It was a remarkable video game and having GOK in it was such a nice touch.

Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite? Post by: MugginsXO on September 25, 2014, 09:16:04 PM Just meant that my love of Bioshock Infinite is well known and I cannot avoid engaging on it.
A delicious dystopian sting. Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite? Post by: guitarfool2002 on September 25, 2014, 09:22:13 PM Ahh, ok! I have a different definition for the word sting and not knowing what you meant I got a little worried for a minute there. ;D

First a barbershop quartet singing 'God Only Knows' and now a lovely Paris scene with Edith Piaf singing 'La Vie En Rose'. Must play this game.

"Video what?" "Like a Playstation game, or something." "Oh, right. That'd be BioShock Infinite." "Cool. And what's your favourite game?" "BioShock Infinite." "Haha. Okay. Thanks so much for talking to me about video games!" "Video what?" Title: Re: Brian Wilson's Reaction To BioShock Infinite?

Some amazing alternate-reality covers of songs, including a wonderfully old timey Shiny Happy People (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lN7xcOxAPgk).
