- FallenHero, on 11/14/2007, -5/+363Hypnotoad commands you to digg this article...
- rwallen, on 11/11/2007, -3/+196My wife heard this playing in the other room and just yelled "Don't watch Futurama without me"
- Elliuotatar, on 11/11/2007, -1/+127This doesn't just bear SOME resemblance to the Futurama theme, it bears a LOT of resemblance. Oh sure some notes were changed here and there. I think the futurama theme is a lot easier on the ears; this version is quite discordant. But they're definitely the same song.
- Sornos, on 11/14/2007, -1/+116All glory to the Hypnotoad.
*clap* - K4P741NxKRUNCH, on 11/11/2007, -1/+88Lucky lucky you
- nakeddave, on 11/11/2007, -7/+86dugg for the trippy music video.
- gmiley, on 11/10/2007, -0/+62Except that the guy that wrote the Futurama theme specifically named this song as his inspiration for it.
- fuckedupworld, on 11/06/2007, -4/+57I didn't feel right watching that without first taking 5 hits of acid.
- KingMoses, on 11/06/2007, -2/+54...but did this one ever have a beatbox version? I think not.
- euro22, on 12/17/2008, -1/+53(~).(~)
- 5plic3r, on 11/06/2007, -1/+36But since "Psyché Rock" uses the same chord progression as the 1965 hit "Wild Thing", that makes "Wild Thing" the origin of Futurama's theme music. ;)
- wushu18t, on 11/11/2007, -1/+33what the hell?? when did i digg this?
- SPThom, on 11/06/2007, -2/+33I love this song. IMO you can also hear some influence on the Austin Powers theme in there.
I recommend the "Fatboy Slim Malpaso" remix of this song if anybody's interested. Available on iTunes or, y'know, somewhere for free. - Puppetfunk, on 11/05/2007, -1/+31We have yet to crash youtube. So buried for being an idiot.
- Matt174e, on 11/06/2007, -0/+28I always thought the Futurama theme sounded Christmas'y
- jonnyeh, on 11/05/2007, -0/+24Tell that to the RIAA
- danwallace, on 11/10/2007, -0/+22"I don't hear any resemblance between this and the Futurama main theme... except for the following resemblances: "
- cmedley, on 11/05/2007, -0/+20except they are.
futurama's theme is based on this music, no one is saying they ripped it off. - saifatlast, on 11/05/2007, -1/+21And hopefully the people who subsequently torrent it also go out and buy it, so that it's a commercial success.
- JohnDavis730, on 11/05/2007, -4/+23well imitation is the highest form of flattery
- wafflez, on 11/05/2007, -1/+20same chords >_>.

Truly a Marriage. Made. In. Heaven. - Doorfingers, on 11/05/2007, -3/+20Maybe if you clicked the link, you would know.
- Wisgary, on 11/07/2007, -0/+17We all know the writers of futurama went back in time, played the futurama theme song in the past, inspired the people behind this video, ***** their own grandmas, and then came back to the future in time to write the next episode.

- Soofi, on 11/05/2007, -3/+19Say no to drugs.

- simpleid, on 11/05/2007, -1/+13"omg its futurama in the pasturama"
only youtube comment that made me laugh a little. :-D - sgtbutterscotch, on 11/05/2007, -2/+14Yeah, but it seems like the submitter expects us to know this Henry before we click the link.
- sgtbutterscotch, on 11/05/2007, -0/+11I bet if you google "knock knock joke" and click on the first link and look at the first joke, you'll be able to find something that will add to your sense of humor.

- LBobRife, on 11/06/2007, -1/+11Makes your text read like it's being said by Captain Kirk?
- ahoyhoy, on 11/07/2007, -1/+11That's what I wonder about my wife all the time
- zjbird, on 11/05/2007, -0/+10YEAH FUTURAMA! Coming back 2008:-)
- inactive, on 11/11/2007, -1/+11I'm not sure. why the. periods were. necessary.
- meatmcguffin, on 11/05/2007, -0/+9It's probably on Dave
/now there's an obscure reference! - inactive, on 11/05/2007, -1/+10It's YouTube, don't worry.
- massproductions, on 11/05/2007, -0/+9There's a reason Digg embeds video submissions. It's so we don't have to click the link.
- MikeSD34, on 11/04/2007, -0/+9The BBC says that the futurama song is a 'pastiche' of the linked song:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artist/w84h/
Wikipedia describes a pastiche as "The word has two competing meanings, either meaning a "hodge-podge" or an imitation."
Hardly coincidence, and at the very least an inspiration. - swingerbone, on 11/04/2007, -0/+9Christopher Tyng is Futurama's composer - Elfman did Groening's The Simpsons, not Futurama.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Tyng - weizilla, on 11/05/2007, -0/+9only 23 days until the new dvd.... hopefully it'll get leaked before the release date
- sexybobo, on 11/05/2007, -0/+8That is because comedy central bought the exclusive rights to it so they can create new episodes.
- srgtTarantula, on 11/05/2007, -1/+9I'm assuming you were trying to be sarcastic, but that would be making an ass out of you and me..
