Titolo: Song

Okay, this is probably a long shot, but I'll give it a whiz anyway.
A while back, you know 15 years or so, a band put out this song. I can sort 
of remember how it went, but I remember this bit in the film clip where this 
car is driving around and runs over a dalek. The song went something like 
"Doctor Who......Hey, da da da.
Anyway, I'm looking to get my hands on the mp3 of this song. Can anyone 
help? or, indeed, does anyone understand what I'm talking about?

Yup.. the song, as pretty well everyone else is gonna say as well, was
'Doctorin the Tardis' by The Timelords... later known as The KLF.  I'm
pretty sure someone's got it on MP3... unlikely it's a legal copy though :-)

  "Doctor Who......Hey, da da da.
That would be "Doctorin' the TARDIS" by The KLF.  I believe you can still
get it.  It was released as a single here in damned ol' America on TVT
records, an equally damnable record label in my opinion.  You might check
with them.  They're on the net.
In music news, some drum n' bass guy named Yellow Note has released an album
called "Yellow Note and The Daleks" and even has a little Jungle Sky guy
kicking some poor Dalek's arse.
Hope that helps ya...

 "Doctor Who......Hey, da da da.
As everyone else has pointed out, this is "Doctorin' the TARDIS" by the
Timelords AKA the Jams AKA the KLF.
Unlike the others, though, I actually have the single and will make an MP3
for you shortly. You can find the track list on my web page - go to
"tracks" and then search for "Timelords".
I think I have the video somewhere too, but don't ask me to find it.
Just to give an idea of the cheesiness of it:
The front cover features a beat-up Ford Fairlane painted on the old USA
black & white police car style, with the caption "Hi! I'm a Ford Timelord.
I'm a car, and I've made a record."
The back cover reads, and I swear the bad grammar is not mine:
"Dear Punter: The name is Ford Timelord and I'm the leader of the group.
You're most probably wondering how me, a yank cop car, is now a local
Essex boy making records. I was born in Detroit in 1968, my father worked
for the car people there, but in 1970 he got promotion. It meant the
family relocating to the Dagenham plant in Essex, England."
"I grew up always being the odd one out in the junior parking lot and on
the runs to Southend but my looks got me cameo and character parts in
movies that were being filmed over there. Superman 3 was my biggest break.
I fancied my chances in the music game cause I know what people want to
hear. So, I mixed and matched some tunes we all know and love, got some
mates down and made this record. Sounds like a hit to me."
"Success and fame? I can handle it. I've got more going for me than most
of the cardboard cut out excuses for pop stars around at the moment. After
this I reckon I could be an all around show biz personality, host my own
chat show, something like that. Yours, Ford."

 "Doctor Who......Hey, da da da.
Have an MP3:
http://www.cuug.ab.ca/~lapierrs/filez/doctorin_12.mp3
This is the 12" mix of "Doctorin' the TARDIS" from the single of the same
name by the Timelords. This is the version I first heard on the radio. I'm
not sure if it's the same as the one from the video - the video was
probably shorter. 
Anyway, enjoy. I'll leave the file up till Sunday.

I don't know anything of a car running over a Dalek but I do have the LP with 
a couple of versions of the song on it.  I bought it years ago and still see 
the CD of it from time to time.  I think I even have a tape copy from the cd 
somewhere that I never listen too anymore.

I can't seem to get the song to play. Is it somewhere on wav or real
audio format? Angie

 audio format? Angie
A common problem with MP3 files is accidentally downloading them as ASCII
files instead of binary. Many web browsers do this without asking. If you
get strange bleeps and pops when playing the file, or if your MP3 player
complains that the file is corrupt, there are several things you can do:
1) Set your web browser to save .mp3 files to disk. In Netscape this
   is done via the "Helpers" preferences menu.
2) Use a program such as "phix" to repair the file. You'll have
   to search for such programs.
3) Download the file directly to disk using a program like wget, GetRight, 
   or by right-clicking on the filename in a file listing and selecting
   "save to disk" in the pop-up menu most graphical browsers offer. You'll
   have to chop the filename off of the URL I gave you in order to get
   the directory listing.
Send me private mail and tell me what programs and OS  you're using and
exactly what the problem is. Of course, you DO need a program that plays
MP3 files in the first place.
I bet the Timelords never have problems like this... :)

Everybody knows what this song is and who it was by, but there is a
rather amusing story behind it, that not everybody knows.
 The KLF wrote a book called "The Manual"
about how to get to number 1 in the music charts, loads of critics said
that the book was utter cobblers. The KLF said ok we'll prove it's not,
recorded the song and renamed themselves the Timelords, hired a video
camera for the day and shot the video, and guess what, it got to number
one. just thought I would share that with you :o)

tradition of Dr Who effects :-)
and on the Top of the Pops performance the Daleks were very similar to
cardboard boxes.
My theory is that these were the Mark I Travel Machines
The Mark II Travel Machines are the BBC2 Dalek logos
and of course, the Mark II are the classic design.

when I first heard the John Debney McGann theme I thought it sounded
reminiscent of this song, must be the background beat or something

Forgive me if I'm totally off-base here, but wasn't that song essentially 
based on Gary Glitter's "Rock and Roll Part 2" (which is played at just about 
every sports stadium and arena in the USA when the home team scores)?

	It's based on that person's song, as well as DW theme (obviously), samples
from 'Genesis of the Daleks', and the song 'Blockbuster'.

I don't know where you can get an mp3 version but it's by "The Timeloards" and is called "Doctor In the TARDIS"
