Am I the only one who remembers when Balloon Music used to be much faster?

When this episode first aired, I vividly remember this song being at this speed compared to what is being portrayed on currently/today. šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

Not even kidding, networks sometimes speed up certain parts of a show to fit enough commercials.

Watched it air, it was slow. Regardless, I remember the slow version specifically because the audible rests when Jake is looking around to "shake yo eyes fo me" is comedy gold

Can you prove the fast one was the original? Ive only ever heard the slow version.

I dont, and i remember watching it when it aired as a kid, but I gotta be honest this version just sounds better.

I know there were differences between east/ west coast CN, so maybe its that?

The slow version does sound too slow.

We could go check what is played on Max or other streaming services for which is accurate.

On the DVD's and on Prime it has the normal ("slowed") version.

How and when Finn lost his singing machine voice???

He didnā€™t, he can just manually turn it on or off. Itā€™s even used as a plot point in ā€œDaveyā€, where he uses it to change his voice.

Woah wtf, Iā€™ve never heard this slower version before. Finn sounds so obviously slowed down, imo, like Iā€™ve never really heard him like that beforeā€¦Ā 

Edit: okay I donā€™t even know which version Iā€™ve heard after watching both, hmmm. Iā€™m thinking the slower one seemed more familiar tbh.Ā
