ECW Music Questions

Recommended Posts

Having watched the recent Mick Foley DVD...it got me thinking of ECW themes.

 

Trying to think of all the REAL songs used by people in ECW.

 

Here's some that I remember:

 

Tommy Dreamer: Man in the Box

The Sandman: Enter Sandman

Raven: Come Out And Play

Cactus Jack: Born to Be Wild (Oh, and funny story...I once had a dream of Dude Love in ECW...and he came out to another Steppenwolf song, "Magic Carpet Ride")

 

Anyway, list some ECW themes for people here...just so we can relive the memories of Extreme

ECW didn't necessarily have to pay to use the music. There's some weird legal way that they got around it because it was just background music being played at a live event it's technically background noise, combined with the fact that you don't have to pay royalties for using a song if you only play a certain length of it (up to 30 seconds).

 

I have never read much on how ECW did it, but basically no one on the record label/artist end was enforcing the copywright laws. For the time, effort, and legal fees for what little they would get from ECW wasn't worth it and assumedly let it slide.

THat worked with New Jack and his theme playing through the entirety of his match?

The key part was that whoever the copywrite holders for "Natural Born Killas" never bothered to complain/look into the matter. Once they were aware and if they decided that this was a matter to concern themselves over they had many legal routes, like sending a polite cease and desist letter telling ECW to stop what they are doing, billed ECW for royalties, etc. No one ever did, so it wasn't a problem. It's all a judgement call on behalf of whoever owns the song.

They edited out of the commercial releases because than a copywrite holder can than sue for damages because someone can have a permanent copy of a recording.

 

But for broadcast television, it's less enforced.

Towards the end didn't Nova come out to some Quiet Riot. I seem to remember him coming out to "Metal Health" and then reading something about how Paul Heyman was freaking out over it because he hated it so much.

That really fucking sucks.

I have a few ecw dvds and their hard to sit through without the music.

 

The biggest problem is the music they use is this AWFUL fucking techno crap that just ruins the whole aura the wrestler had.

 

Oh and 911's theme music> any other theme.

See The Dudleys' recurring theme, New Jack's crappy track which on certain releases actually covered Joey's voice.

Jason's at N2R 95 might have been one of the perversly enjoyable themes I've ever heard however. It sounds like Gay European stripper music. Which in fact makes sense for Jason.

Even 'New York, New York' is cut on the Big Ass Extreme Bash, which ruins the scene somewhat.

The actual PPV's from Barely Legal to N2R 00 aren't dubbed over at all. Everything else(the earliest show I picked up was Gangsta's Paradise) as in all the shows in 95, 96 and parts of 97 are dubbed. As is Guilty As Charged 2001. I haven't picked up Massacre...00 yet but I should do this week.

 

I picked up loads of ECW releases recently because they've dropped to between 4 and eight euro in certain stores. In fact in Chapters on Middle Abbey Street in Dublin City Centre they're like 4 for 16euro. Which is pretty fucking good says I.
