Idlewild's "Church"

December 2, 2006 12:17 AM

Just watched the movie Idlewild. In it is an alternate take of the Outkast song "Church" from Speakerboxxx (2003). This particular rendition is not in the Idlewild soundtrack. I'm dying to find this rendition. ...quite good. Any ideas?

Check out places like SOHH.com forums, or AllHipHop.com forums (ill community). Idlewild is not highly regarded there, but there are many unreleased tracks floating around on those forums. I suggest you join the forums and ask around.

Check filesharing sites. Check Discogs, or ask at soulstrut or ilovemusic or Outkast message boards, to determine whether it was released on an obscure European 12" or the Japanese version of the soundtrack or something. If neither of these work, is the version in the movie uninterrupted and full-length? If so, you could rip the audio from the DVD.

Registered to SOHH, AllHipHop, and Soulstrut. Awaiting for the admins to confirm me. ILoveMusic.com seems down. Allready checked the file sharing sites...

Saw a "Roses/Chruch" 12" on Discogs and left a comment asking about it, but I assume that it's the Speakerboxxx version.

The Outkast message board links to their MySpace blog. Can't find a place to leave a message...

The audio in the movie is full length, but it has gunshots, screaming, and car chase noises over it.
