Talk:Apollo 18
I've noticed that this isn't available on Itunes, while most of TMBG's major albums are; is this related to some kind of Fingertips-related problem? If so, wouldn't it be possible to lump all the pieces together like the EU edition?
I'm guessing that's the case. Fingertips, if I recall correctly, was also lumped together on Dial-A-Song: 20 Years Of They Might Be Giants, so it could be done. --TuqueeLukee 01:57, 3 Apr 2005 (EST)
Oh, it's on iTunes now. But they have the release date as August 30, 2005, which we all know is not right. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 00:54, 28 Oct 2005 (CDT)
Apollo 18 on MSN music is similar to the iTunes version in that it has the august 30th date also, and all the fingertips are split up, but each is 99 cents. however, i think the fingertips are in the correct order compared to the iTunes version. --Ehsteve14 20:39, 28 Nov 2005 (EST)
Apollo 18 is all screwed up on iTunes. Everything Is Catching On Fire is Hey Now Everybody, and Fingertips (Banjo) is Space Suit. -Cronny
You can download the whole album from walmart.com for $9.44. Probably a good way to get around the $24.99 cost of doing it on iTunes, eh? (perspixx)
Just curious, but is there any reason why there's currently so much empty space under the "Track Listing" heading right now on this page? It seems to be caused by the placement of the images on the page, but it may be intentional, so I don't want to change it without asking (and I'm not sure if I could if I wanted to). So let me know. ~Drew
- Oh, wow. Guess you're an IE user, because I've never seen that bug in Firefox. Anyway, you've just discovered an IE glitch that must affect multiple pages here, so I guess I've got some fixing to do. -CapitalQ / @ / 20:39, 25 May 2006 (CDT)
This was the last TMBG album released on vinyl right? And then only in europe. Is this correct? If so it should be listed in the triva section.
[edit] Album Art?
Anyone know anything about the album cover? Seems to me, I've seen that image of Whale vs. Squid in a couple other places too. Is that an old public domain graphic? Is there maybe an interesting story about how the album cover got designed? I'd love to know how that came to be pieced together. 66.17.118.195 18:39, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
In "With The Dark" the squid and the whale are there--Goodtimes2
I saw in a Futurama episode the same likeness (Whale vs. Squid) as Fry and a mermaid were underwater. Can't remember the episode, thought it was kinda a funny refrence (if even a refrence). --Lemita 00:50, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- I'm a Futurama fan, and I know which episode you're talking about. I think I slightly remember that scene, and my bet is that it's a reference, seeing as how Futurama and The Simpsons have the same creator, and The Simpsons have referenced TMBG a few times. And plus whales fighting squids aren't exactly common occurrences. :p Akagi 01:07, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- It's called "The Deep South," (with the mysterious lost city of Atlanta) and it's an excellent episode. ~ magbatz 01:45, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
- Sperm whales fighting giant squids is actually a common occurrance, in fact they're famous for it. Scientists are always finding whales with suction cup scars from the battles. You can actually see a model of it in the Natural History museum in NYC.--Oddjob 14:09, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
- See, Q, TMBG has a toehold in the scientific community too, not just the music and entertainment industries! ;) Their influence is constantly expanding. Makes me wonder what else they're influencing . . . and when they're planning to take over the world. ~Drew
