It seems like Marie didn’t re-record Bad Moon for her album, like she only added in backup vocals to the demo song? I wonder what this song would sound like without that restrained voice.

unfortunatelly there weren’t any videos for The Change singles. I think that Bad Moon would have been a great choice for a single though. In my perfect world the singles chosen would have been these:
2nd chance / b-side: all you got to do is feel
mother / b-side: what was the b-side of the second single? was it april snow alternative version?
bad moon / b-side: hometown
come to think of it - would marie ever release another album in english? and when? it was the perfect time for this old beauty (hometown) to see a release. now we would probably never get this song released but that’s out of the topic we were disscussing ;o))

I don’t know Hometown, but I’d like to see Remember being released someday. I love that song, even more than All I Ever Wanted. What a shame it was not used as B-side for the A Table In The Sun single.

unfortunately the only version I know about is the one circling on the net. it’s a sample version took from the movie with voiceover on it. I don’t understand why it is not released yet. I guess it wasn’t appropriate to put it on the I en tid som var album cos it is an english song but now is 10 years later, what are you waiting for? the song sounds great!
back on the topic, I picture the Bad Moon video something like Spending my time only much darker. imagine marie sitting on the window like in SMT but the feeling should be much colder - maybe a stone or marble window. it’s in the middle of the night and she is in the big white spotlight of the full moon... something like this...

When the movie came out Marie mentioned that Hometown was personal and that she does not plan to release it - I think we should respect that.
And let me just refresh everyone’s memory; Bad Moon “demo” was stolen amongst other demo’s... I’m am glad that it made an album, but I seriously kicked myself that I downloaded those tracks - Marie must have been devastated to hear that her jewels were mis-used!!

well, there’s been a lot going on since the movie. i mean that she obviously released a lot more personal songs lately, especially The Change ones. but i guess you’re right it’s up to her what should be released, the demos included, not to us. but you know fans, we can never be fully satisfied ;-)) naturally we always want everything. :o)

the lyrics to this song is absolutely great, it is very deep.
i think it would sound great if it was sung just slightly different, but it is still a great song!!!
wonder what the music video would have looked like? (please correct me if there was a music video for this song - i am not aware of one)
i.l.m.
