If you are wondering about the fish:

I think you should think of them as more of a threat.


I wish I had this card. Sad

Sh1ft,
Well, heck! That's what I thought it was, from all the clues! But, that doesn't sound anything like the notes Ollie gave us. Was that another tune in 'the source'?


Like I said I didn't need more than the first four, so I never worked through the rest of Oliver's notes (we know there were a couple of errors in there like the B#), but yes they are the same sequence, with the key shifted upward so there are no sharps or flats. As suggested by doublecross in one of his nuggets here:

I keep looking at this cos I want to put people out of the misery I was in before getting the answer. So assuming the marillion question is genuine (haven't checked back to see if this is the latest fish joke) can I suggest that if you're feeling catatonic, you'll get the fish reference from this lyric

I had a listen to a soundtrack CD on Amazon (The free 30 second preview bits) and it seems that this particular bit of music is not at the beginning - so you may not recognise it immediately if you are unfamiliar with where it came from. Of course this is just what I assume from the CD, and the film is not something I've gone to great lengths to see (Too few dragons and/or lasers for my liking).

Is it just the song title that it is asking for? I have tried what I think it is from clues given but it's still coming up incorrect and now I'm locked out Censored
I think either I'm really stupid or I've totally got the wrong end of the stick Sad

That had me guessing for ages...it's so hard to track down a song that you know you've heard but don't know where...

To add to the now extensive, yet well spread clues:

1972 was a bad year for horse-racing

The logo for 'the source' includes a puppet master's hand... How appropriate! LOL

The song title is the answer, but I tried 8 names for the same song before I got it right, apparently the "well known" name was lost on me.

What a great card, thanks to those who gave clues, because I'm not musical, but once i was able to play with the notes suggested, on the websites suggested, i got it. Awesome!

It may have helped that I'm watching,
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Shark Tale

right now, and while its not directly related that put me in the right frame of mind when i heard the tune played out. Laughing
