"SenSurround"
When...THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS<br />"SenSurround"<br /><br />When I was only a zygote<br />I still remember the time<br />When there was nothing to know or to think about<br />Except the sound of my mind<br />And the sound from outside<br /><br />SenSurround<br />Down at the bottom<br />Sensible to ear and sternum<br />And the world first spoke to me in SenSurround<br /><br />If mom had known she was expecting<br />She might have gone to see Jaws<br />Instead of picking a film where the sound effects<br />Came right up through the floor<br />And I'd be differently formed<br /><br />SenSurround<br />Down at the bottom<br />Sensible to ear and sternum<br />And the world first spoke to me in SenSurround.<br /><br />Accidently in a coal mine it was found<br />When they accidently dug too far down<br />And found the SenSurround<br /><br />I still don't know who conceived it<br />Or where they got the idea,<br />But there it was in the aisle by the exit sign<br />A woofer covered in wood<br />to shake the room when it should<br /><br />SenSurround<br />Down at the bottom<br />Sensible to ear and sternum<br />Made the fakeness realistic<br />When the action went ballistic<br />One degree shy of sadistic<br />And the world first spoke to me in SenSurround<br /><br />If I could swim under the water<br />without having to breathe<br />If I could follow the trail to the ocean floor<br />I think I'd know what there'd be<br />Down there waiting for me<br />Metro Mapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14740399871766121926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-53612523167879840212015-07-21T10:05:16.807-04:002015-07-21T10:05:16.807-04:00I saw Earthquake in a theatre with Sensurround. It...I saw Earthquake in a theatre with Sensurround. It was kinda fun when the first quake hit, with the seat vibrating and that weird inner ear sensation you get at a concert when the bass is cranked up. But then as it kicked in for every aftershock, it became annoying and distracting. By the time the last aftershock hit, I remember groaning to my dad, "Not this again."<br /><br />I also recall sitting in a multiplex watching something like "The Way We Were" and during a quiet, emotional moment, the room started shaking because they were showing Earthquake next door. Thank God THX came along!
