Speaker 2 (00:03):
It's ninety seventy three.

Speaker 3 (00:05):
Welcome, Welcome to the studio.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
Mank you so so great to be here.

Speaker 3 (00:08):
People got creative because of course Josh is responsible for
things like this, this famous theme, so you could help.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
But pointed in the amount of times I've gotten that wrong.
Yeah really yeah, yeah, all right remember here with the
like people from music team also right with me and stuff. Yeah,
I remember we were we were doing something on TV
and we were going hang on and we were trying
to count it and I think we all like missed
it at some point. So it's not just parents, it too. Yeah,

(00:47):
it's so embarrassing. But yeah, that's why I was practicing.
I was like, I got it. I got it.

Speaker 3 (00:53):
So what you think of there's our audio team put
together this. This is going to be our new show
intro from now on run. We just need a fourth

(01:21):
member with the.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Tap just like that. Yes, that is amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Did you come up with it? Did you watch lots
of episodes that they were thinking about or it was right.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
At the start before Blue was a thing, and no
one would have expected anyone would even ask me about it. Yeah,
I will say, like, the theme's pretty weird if you
wrote it down on paper. If I went to them
and said, we're gonna write a tune, it's going to
have melodica, it's going to have baritone sacks, there's going
to be any drums, and there's going to be like

(01:58):
five four bars in the middle of it. Yeah, you
probably go, what are you talking? No, this is a
kids show, So it's you know, props to team at
Ludo and Joe Brawm, the creator for the going yeah,
that'll work.

Speaker 2 (02:11):
So what did they tell you though to come up
with it?

Speaker 1 (02:13):
If?

Speaker 2 (02:13):
Because I had imagined there was at least some ideas
of episodes, but you're saying it was there.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah, there were there were some rough episodes there. I
think we finished the theme maybe around the same time
we finished the third episode, I think. But the thing
that really cracked the code for writing the theme, and
a lot of parents don't realize this, is that the
opening titles is actually a game of musical statues. So
when the music stops, you know, somebody one of the

(02:39):
characters are still dancing and they get called out. And
it's funny because a lot of people don't notice that
at all until a few.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Years actual moment, Yeah, did you have any inkling that
the show was going to be anywhere near this big?

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Oh no, I'm like I do remember having a friend
from the States in the studio and I check out
the show and working on it's amazing. And then he
said something like, what are the kids saying? Like they
couldn't understand the accents? And I think, well, I think
it was fairly popular in Australia pretty quickly, but it

(03:13):
was just it's been a slow burn and now it's
just keeps growing and it's so awesome because I'm proud
of it. I love the show so but.

Speaker 2 (03:22):
Now I mean it has become so huge overseas that
kids are starting to speak with Australian accents because Bowie.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
How cool is that?

Speaker 3 (03:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah, I've heard them been saying that. They've been saying Duney.

Speaker 4 (03:33):
And all the way.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
I mean, it's just a little bit of revenge, really,
isn't it, Because use Americanism for everything. It's so influenced us.
But we've given you Duney. That's our payback. You've got
Dundy now, yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Now you've brought you You were talking about your team earlier,
you brought everyone in with you. Clinton, Jazz just on
microphone age Jazz, Hello, because we were just watching the
film clip of the song. You guys are going to
play for us?

Speaker 1 (03:59):
Run? Yeah, yeah, pretend. And this is so much Jazz's baby, like, yeah,
we did this episode together and which we've been working
to other for like four or five years, and so
much of this is just like it's so much I
feel like you should talk about it.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
It's such a lovely episode. Yeah, well, let's talk about
the episode because it's about Chile letting the girls outside
and playing in the rain kind.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
Of everyone just watch it.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
Yes, so there's a whole you know, people that obviously
see the cartoon, they know it. So I'm like my
little boys not quite at the Bluey obsession fase he's
nearly four, and I'm dying for him to get there,
like should we watch Blue and he will sort of
watch a beer, but he gets bored and and everyone
anyone with like a five or six year wait till
Blue he comes. But I'm not there yet.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
I'm still I'm still in poor Patrol. Hell yeah, yeah,
if you don't like Blue by five, it's going to
be a clockworker.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Ye, but there's actually an album a musical hour, so
it's not even a visual thing. So it's like for
playing in the car and things like that.

is awesome.

but I own one and that's enough. Okay, But I
am a piano player and it's got the same sort
of keys on it.

Anyway, Yes, let's let's set up. We'll take a rag,

a say, but we were learning to grow, and we
knew how to play, and we raised those boats down
the road till the end.
