i almost lost my mind

I was watching Return of the Jedi chapter 21, when the Skywalker twins were chasing the storm troopers. At the turn of a scene, just after Luke and Leia's speeder went under a fallen tree, I heard a familiar noise. It was like a zoom then a slight screech. I hadn't watched Star Wars in a while, so I knew that this noise was sampled in a track somewhere.

Thus began the search, which didn't take long. I started off thinking it was Luke Fair's: "I wish," but it wasn't. I was then stuck for about 10 minutes panning through all the music my mind could muster with hopes to end this torture. Then, out of the fog, flashed Rabbit in the Moon's FLOORI.D.A. (Three A.M.'s Dub for Strangeways). 2 minutes and 25 seconds into it was the exact same noise. It wasn't masked or synthesized in the least.

I'm usually on the money with movie quotes found in music, but I've never been challenged with mere noises before. I just thought I'd share my near stroke experience. I only hope George Lucas doesn't file suit against David Christopher because I dropped the dime!

Way to go dude. I know how mindnumbing it can be to try to figure out where you've heard this sound or that voice sample.

Hot damn, I had the same experience not 3 days ago. Although I wasn't annoyed enough to find that sound elsewhere. Good work young Jedi.

Re: i almost lost my mind

sometimes late at night, the alley cats sing to me. it was kinda weird at first, them knowing my name and all, but i figured it was from them reading my mail.

as luck would have it, they also know some of my favorite Sheena Easton tunes and are able to whip me into a frenzy with their delightful feline vocal. shit, those pussys hit high notes that mariah would be envious of.

so yeah dood, i totally know what you mean. you hear something out the corner of your eye, you stop, then think hard about the feeling, and then just need to run to the corner wearing last nights gym clothes and fucking tell them :
