Talk:The Bloodmobile

From This Might Be A Wiki

7-3-04: I have a mystery I need solved. I downloaded The Bloodmobile from tmbg.com and it's 2 minutes, 21 seconds long, but it thinks it's only 1 minute, 3 seconds. This has brought me problems. When I saved it onto my computer and played it from there, it would stop at 1:03, right in the middle of the word "germs." Did anyone else encounter the same or similar problem, and does anyone know how to fix it? This is now one of my favorite songs, and I don't want any problems with it. --My Evil Twin's Twin

7-7-04: I had a similar problem, except mine would end at 11 seconds! So, what i did was get it off clock radio, and that copy seemed to work just fine. The interesting thing about the song stopping at 11 seconds though, was that it only seemed to happen in certain media players - it was shortened by RealPlayer and Itunes, but fine with Microsoft's Media Player. -- Duke33

Hmm...for some reason, I'm not able to download the track...I entered the correct username and password, but to no avail...and I really want to hear this song! - Stiddy

Yeah, you're correct stiddy...it's not working. You should send dot an email and let her know. If you want to give me your email address, i'll send you a copy. -- Duke33

7-24-04: Okay so now, it seems that at tmbg.com the Bloodmobile link is gone, so you can't exactly download this song anymore (unless I'm wrong and someone else knows more than I do), but does anyone think that it's the fault of someone over there that messed up the download and stuff? Does anyone know how to contact whoever's in charge of the tmbg.com MP3's, tell them to fix it, and put up again? --My Evil Twin's Twin


7-7-04: How come when i try to download the song, it says i need to enter a username and password? Fossilise Apostle

7-7-04 Well because you do. its user:tmbg pass:freetheexpo67 - droffats
9-7-04 - it still doesn't work for me! Fossilise Apostle

Dosn't it sound like the girl singing in this song is flans? But with a speed increase. -droffats

Not even remotely. It's Flans's wife Robin_Goldie_Goldwasser. TVsKyle

When I first heard this song, I thought the exact same thing! When she hits the high note on everyWHERE, she has that same voice-catching-in-throat quality that the johns do. - TehBagel


Is the guy singing the "haul out the trash" part still Linnell? - magbatz Indeed, it is Linnell. It is hard to tell, as it's a voice that both Linnell and Flans can do. It fooled me for a while on the "speck of dust" part of Violin. - TVsKyle

Who's the one singing the "white blood cells" part? I can't figure it out for the life of me. - Rhinoceros Rex

Sounds like an army of Linnells to me. Flans might be in there, but there are too many voices in there for me to be able to tell for sure. - TVsKyle


Wouldn't this have fit perfectly on the Venue Songs (DVD/CD)? All the other videos are animated, and this song is on there. --BlarJotunn

[edit] Screenshot

Someone want to take a screenshot of the video on the franklin institute website? --Duke33 16:04, 19 Dec 2005 (EST)

[edit] if their next kids album is science-themed...

wouldn't it make sense to put this song on it? it's very kid-friendly and it already has a music video. they've put already-released songs on their other kids albums (ex: the edison museum, i never go to work), and this would fit the theme perfectly. --Ehsteve14 06:55, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

Makes sense. And "I Never Go to Work" was moved from a kids album to another kids album, hehe. -CapitalQ / @ / 07:10, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
