Any musical minded people out there???

"The self preservation" song. How many different notes does

"This is the self preservation, Society"

Have?

If it has 5 different notes or less, Would it be posible to get a compresser to play the song through the musical air horns?

You could always get a set and take them apart to find out how the tune is programmed. It can't be that complicated as they are fairly cheap and basic mechanical things. The tune is stored inside the top of the compressor head.

It caper time is actually only the intrumental, the full version that everyone has for ring tones is "getta Bloomin'Move On". the Lyrics were written by Don Balck and most of the cast were involved in singing the main part of it!

Actually, it may even be a low B on the word "the", instead of a D
