Awfully familiar

What does the intro of this song remind you of?



Here's a hint- Something from the original NES game.

This song was made in 1978, possibly got ripped off? Probably not, but who knows?

The dam underwater level?

It would make sense, since the Level 5 overworld theme sounds suspiciously like The Beatles' "Come Together."

They decided to keep that theme going and ripped off The Ramones in Smash Up. They play the same riff from Blitzkrieg Bop over and over again.

Yeah, I do love running through those bonus levels enjoying the sweet sounds of "Hey, ho, let's go!" Shameless turtles...

Haha, yup! Glad to see I wasn't the only one who caught that.

Ripping off 70's music since 1989.

On a sidenote, I f*ckin love that song. Me and my granda used to watch Monkey together back when I was a wee'un. For years I thought the words were 'funkiest monkey that ever bopped', when actually it is 'punkiest monkey that ever popped'. D'oh! Oh, and that was the show, that up until I was five or six, had me believing that all asians spoke words and carried on moving their lips afterwards. Damn dubbing! Bit like when I thought that dwarves were a seperate race of people, thanks to such movies as Willow...

It reminds me of the original tmnt game in the stupid water level where you have to disarm the bombs in 2 minutes

For reals right. Not one person I knew who played the game ever stated this, even though it seemed blatantly obvious to me.

As for the underwater level music, tons of 70s music had this sound. I know there are some 70s tv shows that are before my time that have this sound going on. It has to do with the music industry using what ever the newest gadget (or sound) is at the time. Like tons of 60s and early 70s music uses an organ. Then in the 80s it was the electric keyboards (keytar, synth) and dreaded electric drums. Right now its that stupid auto tune that gives people that distorted robot voice sound. Err.
