Does anyone know anything about the semi acoustic version of Savior that they play on Air1? Did Skillet record it with the rest of the album? Is there any possibility of it turning up on the CD (possibly as a hidden track)? Who all has heard it and what do you think of it?

i haven't heard it, but i'm sure it is a special cut just for CHR.... they did that with alien youth also. prolly won't show up anywhere else. i would be curious to hear it though... guess i'll have to find an air1 syndicate

i havent heard it maybe they will make a DVD out of it. Like AY

It's a cool version. You can hear strings of some sort (thinking violin) in it. What would be cool is if Air1 played both versions. And yes I would love it if they put both versions on the cd. maybe they did, we don't have to much longer to wait...

I requested Savior on Atlanta's crappy "light-rock" stations...

If there's a version that Air1 will play, there's no reason they can't play it as well. :P

I have heard it. Our local radio plays it. I think it rocks. Skillet is the only rock band that can play their songs acoustic and they still rock your face off!!! Our radio station has actually played the acoustic version and the cd version right after one another. Talk about an excited Sherry driving down the road. My daughter was "Mommy can you please turn John Cooper down. He is hurting my ears."

that is funny. :) i wish our radio station would play it even once! in a row. :( at least i have ardentrecords.com. ;)

I'm upset as well. I requested Savior like 10 times and I haven't heard it YET. (well, maybe cuz the only time i listen to the radio is in the morning)

I wish my state had a christian rock station. :( I would be lost when it came to new music if it wasnt for my handy dandy............notebook, right! no, kiddin. if it wasnt for my computer I dont know what I would do when it come to new music.

** Purg **

Although having a Christian rock satation is great, our station plays a little of everything. They only play the real "rock" music after 7 pm, and I am always preoccupied. So, we also have to listen to the rap they play, and you know Christian rap is kinda cheesy sometimes.

People in this area of the country don't know that Christian music is past hymns yet, so chances of us ever hearing Savior on the radio anytime soon are -0-.

Last week i heard a new version of Savior, some one knows where i can get the full version of the song... even tho i thnk the song doesnt sound as good as the original, i want that new remix.

You mean the acoustic version?

I already had a thread about this...i think it died because the topic was so boring...lol

hey, look! i found it. :) forgot it even exsisted. (maybe it is boring. ;))

all I know is that my radio station will only play a version of savior with lotsa keys and no guitars.
It's boring compared to the real version on the cd.

at least your radio station plays a version. the ones near me won't touch Skillet with a ten-foot frying pan. :P

Mine won't either!!! All they play is Chris Rice and Avalon and other people I've never heard of. They played Newsboys "It is You" once (that I heard, at least). I wish there could be a Christian rock station near where I live, but I guess I don't live close enough to a big city to have one.

I told you this topic was boring ;D LOL

ehhh. yeah. i hear it on air 1, and it's not on the cd as a hidden track (unless i'm mistaken). The CD version is much, much, much better. They should play that one.

Yeah, I know.
The cd version is hard, but it's not THAT hard.
Just my humble opinion....

no, you're right...it's not the cd version. if you are signed up to get their music surveys, whenever they ask you: "What songs have you heard on the radio, that you like, that Air 1 is not playing that you would like to hear?" [something along those lines]

tell them "the cd version of Savior by Skillet." that's what i do. and then explain how isn't fair representation of the song and the band. so it may effect the cd sales - if the listener bases their cd collection on what they hear on air 1.

i have been asked that question 3 times, and each time i tell them to play Savior - not the acoustic version, but the original single. of course, i thank them for at least playing Skillet to begin with - just encourage them to go harder. ;)

maybe if enough of us say it, it'll happen... *shrugs*

...just remember to be nice... :)

yeah I know what u mean. the station by us plays stuff like the one u have. They need more christian rock stations.

Actually, Jes West, the evening DJ on air1, occasionally will play the album version of Savior and when you hear it, you can call in and win a copy of collide. So the real sound of Skillet does have at leas one fan on Air1 staff. ;D

They play the cd version on Christian rock.net, so that would be okay.

Hey I was wondering if anyone has heard the non-rock remix of the song "Savior"?? I've heard it twice, and I would like to know where (and if) I could find it somewhere? Thanks!

i herd the new version of savior and i like the hard rock one better :(

anyone hear that re-mixed savior single? Wow that was great, they just played it on the radio, but they called it just savior, not a new remixed version on the radio, the station I listened to though was one that dosen't really like to play rock music, so I dunno.. it was a little more toned down than the orginal savior, but in a cool way

Hey, they do that to allot of songs, its there radio version, same with like AA, they have a differant song on there CD then on the radio, thats what it probaly was.

Yeah, the acoustic version...didn't we have a thread on this?

don't ask me, no idea

Yeah, we do have one about this somewhere.

yeah, there's another thread somewhere around here

*shuffles through papers on desk, tossing them around the room*

aha! here it is. :) Semi-acoustic Savior (http://www.panheads.org/boards/board=5;action=display;threadid=682)

this thread will now be locked! *poof*

anyone know where I could like download it without having to go through downloading something like kazaa?

Hmm.. I just heard it on the radio a while ago. Has anyone found a place to listen to it online?

Yeah I really like both versions of Saviour, I heard the accoustic version when I was over @ my friends house in Nz last week, I wa wondering if anyone knew where I could get the accoustic version from? thanks-Flame_Boy ::)

side note: air 1 is actually playing the ROCK version of Savior. yes yes, it was exciting to hear. the polite requests payed off. :)

that's awesome! ;D way to go everyone. :D

yeah, it is pretty exciting. :)

Hey does anyone one where I can get or download the remix of the Saviour song? I really like the sound of it + I like to have all the rare stuff that skillet has put out thanks ::) ;D-Flame_Boy

Yeah, I'd really like to know too.

Yes, I've heard the accoustic version of Saviour on Air1.com Was puzzled by it. I wondered if maybe it was an American version of the song (or perhaps more accurately maybe what I'd heard was an Australian version) I emailed Air 1 for some answers but didn't get a reply.

I like the Album version better. The accoustic one sounds kinda weird to my ears after getting to know the other.

the aucustic version isnt as good as the album, ive heard both on air1, but mostly the aucustic version.

I dislike the acoustic version. It just doesn't sound nearly as good as the version on the record.

When you guys say acoustic, you mean also all the keys in the song too, right? The version played on my local xian station, kduv, is both acoustic and has lotsa wierd keys on it, but no hard guitars. And it even has slightly different singing by John.
It isn't nearly as good as the hard version.

Yah, thats why I titled the thread "Semi-acoustic". it sounds really weird if youve listened to the album version about 1000 times like I think most of us have.

The accoustic version is no inferior to the album version. It is a great song to play on CCM stations who would normally only play "You are my hope" and every Steven Curtis Chapman song.

Where can I download this song?

cool. thanks. :)

i changed the title to say a tad more about what this thread is about. :)

Isn't there a thread for this in the frying pan?

ok, fine! be that way! make us keep things organized! :P


;) thanks for the reminder Rachel. i couln't remember where it was exactly. my brain being fried by school & all.

Woah I like it... Even Johns Voice is diff alil.. Maybe more clear.. Idk but i like it...

I think Ardent Records should set up a special offer if your the 1st 100 pepole to Order the re realse of COllide oyu get a LE Savior Remix and maby if the want to the can add Smile Againg to the song list and have the cd atugraphed!

why should Ardent give away stuff for the release of Collie on Lava's label? :-\ *still trying to understand*

well then lava or something i dunno

Yeah, I like the semi-acoustic version, it sounds really nice but it took me a while to get used to. My local CHR radio station plays it here in Australia, and I'm good friends with the announcer dude, so I will ask him how they got it and see if he knows. Does anyone know if it's on the web or anything.. like a legal copy? We should ask when it got made when Korey does her chat thing... that's taking a while to happen aye. Maybe they're busy..

Maybe they're busy..

Extremely busy. That Saliva tour has definitely got them on the move.

Yeah that's what I was thinking after reading that interview. What do you think about the whole going mainstream thing? I think it's cool, but I wish the radio's would just play savior.. like for eg, here in Australia, no one's ever heard anything skillet on mainstream radio, but I'm sure it will happen when the time comes.

But like.. when POD's single Satellite go launched I only heard it on the radio a couple of times and no one got to know it.. sorry to bring POD into this.. they're not the coolest

i have the whole song on my computer well like almost 3 seconds of it is off

you coudld post the file

Please do. I need.

that would be sweet

please?

Or send a message to me and send it to me and i'll post it...

yeah, i want that song! please pm or send it to my mail gamarro@gmail.com i have tons of space there, and i will upload it to my server and then i can make a quick link so everyone can download it

make sure you have permission for that. it is still copywritten and stuff. just to make sure the legalities are worked out so you don't get in trouble.

hehehe, i dont need permision for that, here in guatemala there are no rules (as far as i know) for that stuff, so i can do whatever i want, according to guatemala's laws, i can go to prision if i am copying AANNNDD selling the music.. else i wont

true, but Skillet is an american band. so rules might be different. i just want to make sure it's legal...that's all.

lol i reprograme my computer lost it but i could get it gaing but if i did i dont thin i should share it with you im gonna be selfish and have it all to my self haha j/k but i whouldnt send it to you since it hasnt been put on a cd or any thing so

ok... i promise i wont put on my server... I REALLY DO... besides it is just one song. But, no problem, you have the song, is your choice :afro:
