Atari sound effects in Wanna B Ur Lovr

Post by Zaphod »

I noticed that mixed in with all the electronic sounds in Wanna B Ur Lovr there are a couple of old Atari 2600 game sounds...



Donkey Kong

Right after the line "That's why I'm giving you this hungry stare" (about :50 into the song), you can hear the sound of Mario running and jumping.



Pac-Man

In the middle of the 1st chorus, (about 1:34 into the song) you can hear Pac-Man eating ghosts.



Yes, I played too much Atari in my misspent youth! :)

Sounds like a pretty WELL-spent youth to me! I too am a gamer, but I don't know how I missed those sounds. Those are two of the most used videogame sounds effects! Seems like almost any time someone in a movie or tv show is playing a game, it makes one or both of those two sounds.
