Often during the singalong part in HCW :D

Lately I have been rotating Somewhere in Time and Seventh Son as driving music to and from work. Normally if "Moonchild" starts playing as I start my car at home, I'll be parked at work before the guitar solo in "The Evil That Men Do". Today I had reached the instrumental part in SSOASS before...

Gotta have a beer to celebrate that :cheers:

Could happen, but only if the car was accellerating, or being in a turn so that it came more and more straight towards the person (i.e. the speed component towards the observer increasing). If the car approaches at a steady speed along a straight line and passes at "zero" distance, the observer...

If we want to understand this, we need to remember what the doppler effect is, in the acoustic (non-relativistic) world. Or what sound is, actually. It is an object that vibrates and creates pressure waves in its surroundings (in the air, for example). For you as an observer, what you hear as...

I can come up with an explanation, but I'll need a bit more than five minutes so I'll have to do it tonight :) But a short hint to get your thinking started: It's not a constant number of wave peaks between you and the moving object.

I thought so, but best to get the most obvious ones out of the way earlier. Run to the hills?

Quest for fire? He holds a torch and fights a beast, which happens to be a dinosaur walking the earth. No cannibal tribes to be seen though.

Reminds me of a cartoon where some guy is picking up his car at your typical backyard workshop, and the mechanic tells him what was wrong with the car, and what he has replaced. Then the customer asks "I see ... and the weird noise?" The mechanic holds up a CD and replies: "Bob Dylan"

Exactly

:bigsurprise: It's the right answer! But the link I had in mind has nothing to do with lyrics, I thought of the name of the Phantom.

OK, go!

I'll think for a while. Maybe the idea comes to me while working. If I haven't come up with anything by bedtime I'll pass it to somebody else.

Spirits cry for a God from the grave? Maybe I am a bit too narrow-minded as to what is a war epic, I really didn't think of DOTC. And of course I might still be on the wrong track.

Either I am getting forgetful or I'm not thinking of the song in question as a war epic. Gotta think some more then ...

The only line I can think of that matches that hint - remotely - is from one of two* long war epics Maiden did - The Longest Day: But I'm still alive, pray to God I'll survive. I dismissed that thought at least once before since Hades is the god of the realm of death ... Firstly, the soldiers...

Infinite Dreams? Help me (to find my true self, etc.), but only the first two words being important here

Meh, I'm sure it has some more up its sleeve so let's wait a little. Nasty shit has happened in the last week of the year before.

I was thinking about the line "smile for cameras all OK" ...

You should know that there are many out there that would understand at least parts of it. There are many who carry burdens, light or heavy, that they don't want to talk about - just because they think that noone around them will understand. But burdens are lighter when shared. I wish you the...
