i just watched it again. sounds like Ring Road alright, but it seems too odd to be in there. I mean that episode had to have been produced so long ago - how'd they get hold of it?

you can't really hear much. i haven't heard the full song, myself, so it just sounds like background music to me. i've heard them use 'mmm skyscraper i love you' in an advert for 'nick news' about 4 years ago, so it's not totally weird.

that's really obscure. nice catch.

so I guess when the 'sound guy' was pressed for filler background music, he had the OwB promo lying around.

the official word is that they made the episode 5 years ago, the underworld kid sampled it 3 years ago... then got friendly with them and stuff and did their own complely uw animated show telling story about their lemonworld day life with malcom getting sauna like burn from the chimp trying to make coffee wires hole making all over the place, try to hunt for little insects in there making back vocal choir mmm yeah and tbc.

Family Guy and Underworld... this is like a marriage between two of my favorite things. Anyway.. we must get to the bottom of this. Very curious indeed.

By the way, they showed a preview (about 10 minutes) of this episode at Star Wars Celebration IV... which was in May. And it included this clip, but Ring Road was not in the video at that point. You can still see the preview here:

So yes, the episode has been around for a long time, but they must have added Ring Road somewhat recently.

i thought that briefly but i would hope Rick has more respect in his craft than to use a stock beat off a sample cd. this is def. the intro beat to Ring Road. if Rick stole that same beat from another source, he needs a good tongue lashing. in fact, i know a couple ladies on the forums who wouldn't mind giving him that tongue lashing.
