"C’EST WHAT?" The Hits As Sung By the Original Artists… In Other Languages - Volume 6

In an effort to reach a wider audience in the burgeoning music marketplace, many 60’s artists (as well as many more recent artists) recorded many of their hits in other languages. Some artists proved rather proficient singing in a different tongue while others appear to have been reading from phonetic lyrics sheets, butchering someone else’s native tongue, probably with little understanding of what they were even singing. Some songs attempted to replicate the English lyrics, changing certain words or lines for the sake of the rhyme. Others altered the words and meanings more drastically.trax:

I totally understand guys, i said flac because i see it posted here and not wav. but im a wav collecter myself,i decompress all flac file to original wav format. if you could post rare soul ballads in wav. i would really appreciate it. Thank you buck

Here a little something for all you soul collecters,I appreciate all you guys do here. My cd my rip (Wav)

erasmus said...

not sure if you're thanking someone named buck or if that's your name, anonymous person.

i didn't know flac files could be decompressed.
what do you use to accomplish this?

Anonymous said...

Hi erasum.. my name is buck...I use a program call wavpad sound editor.

Anonymous said...

@erasmus
converting flac to wav is possible with vlc (media convert - file by file) or lamexp (you can queue up several files or whole folders).
I convert them to mp3 with 192kb because i can hear no difference and it saves a lot of space.
yours. Hermann

Thanks a lot for the Johnny Adams!

erasmus said...

i'm well familiar with file "conversion", but when i read "decompress" it suggested that files were restored to original state. as far as i understand it, this is not the case with conversions, where something is lost with each conversion.

thanks for the responses.

@Gyro - thank you for the classic old-time music, and the hit list. Cheers!

Anonymous - when I tried to connect to that Mediafire address I got this message:

The key you provided for file access was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on MediaFire. This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or MediaFire.

ffmpeg is the ultimate "swiss army knife" for media file conversions - it converts nearly anything to nearly anything else, video included, usually with every option the output format supports - including different compression rates, merging audio and video into single playable files, etc. But alas, ffmpeg is native to Linux and other *NIX operating systems. If you are a "computer person" but have not looked into the potential for media file management and processing on Linux, I highly recommend checking it out. ffmpeg is a command line tool, but Linux supports a /full/ range of AV tools from sound and video editors to music library managers, cross-platform tools like VLC, etc. - all Free as in Freedom, as are the operating systems themselves.

A note on compression: The more you compress an mp3 file, the more high frequency sound is lost. People with high frequency hearing loss (usually old farts like me) can't tell the difference and in some cases low bitrate mp3 might actually sound better. But 192k sounds flat and lifeless to me. I have /always/ used hearing protection where useful, so I can still tell the difference between 320k mp3 and 600+k flac, but it is not "huge" and I am nearly always happy with max bit rate mp3 sound. WAV files and FLAC files sound exactly alike, the only difference is compression ratio; WAV makes /enormous/ disk-filling files and provides no advantages of any kind, unless you are for some reason tied down to a media player that does not have /any/ decompression codecs that work.
