Hey have you ever wondered what Lemmings would feel like playing it with the original version of ''How Much Is That Doggie In The Window''?

How Much Is That Doggie In The Window was composed by Bob Merrill in 1952 and sung by Patti Page. It's played to the Mega Drive port of Lemmings perfectly synchronised. Once again the song is safe to post and does not infringe copyright. :)

Here is an example of putting a Lemmings song to good use.

This video features the Mega Drive version of ''How Much Is That Doggie In The Window'' (My favourite version)

The video shows short clips taken from the BBC's 1990 comedy sitcom ''Keeping Up Appearances'' where you see Onsolw's dog barking at Hyacinth in the window of the car. This content is entirely safe to post and does not infringe copyright, it was uploaded to Youtube along time ago.  8)

Hmmm... I actually think the one I posted was better ''Enjoy The Show'' by Zonic, because not only is it my favourite Lemmings song but it's also uploaded in higher quality sound. Miners And Climbers is just as good really, I can't hear anything wrong with her vocal range in either song and I can't find anything to criticize about either but I prefer ''Enjoy The Show''.

The other thing I noticed is that she spelt the title wrong ''Minors And Climbers'' i'm pretty sure there's meant to be an e in Miners.

And as for the version of ''Enjoy The Show'' that she recorded on her webcam, I think that was a just a demo recording which explains why it sounds like something from American Idol. The one I posted above was the full album version. :)

I apologize too for not explaining about the first video in greater detail. The last thing I want to do is argue on this forum with the many other brilliant minds and masters of Lemmings such as yourselves over posted videos. It's just that your first post Finlay really caught me by surprise, I wasn't expecting such a strong negative reaction but anyway.

I apologize to Finlay and ccexplore aswell as the administrators of this site for any inconvenience caused. From now on when I post a video I will be sure to give a full description about it's content.

Happy Gaming :thumbsup:

Tech & Research / Hidden Levels In The SEGA Mega Drive Port Of Lemmings
« on: August 16, 2011, 02:29:01 PM »
Has anyone else ever seen or come across these two levels before in the SEGA Mega Drive (Genesis) version of Lemmings ???

These two levels are NOT hacked levels from rom hackers or level editors that have been added in, these two very easy levels are actually hidden in the official finished game and were somehow left in there when it was finished. These levels are always there in the game and the only way to access them is to cause the cartridge to glitch or freeze, once the screen is frozen solid you then press the reset button on the Mega Drive console to access the title screen again, after that you go into the FUN mode and levels 31 & 32 are added onto the usual 30. Typing in the passwords for these two levels on the password screen will not work and the message ''WRONG CODE'' will show on the screen as these levels were not programmed into the game normally for play but left in the game as glitched levels or beta testing levels, so it makes sense why the passwords won't work. At the end of the second level when it says ''your password for level 33'' there is no level 33 as that is also a glitch. I have accessed these two levels many times and found them by accident one day when I was a kid accidently bumping the cartridge.

I'm exercising my knowledge away from the music of Lemmings this time. I thought this might interest some of you

This was played by me on an original PAL 50Hz SEGA Mega Drive model 1 console. Footage was not captured by any emulator.

I never said or implied that it was criticism of what you said ccexplore, you guys have every right to voice your opinions. I was just pointing out that you too commented that the visual content in the video was not all related to Lemmings, only somewhat when you originally said that it was only Finlay who did.

Like you and Finlay not researching the visual content in the video because ''you did not know'' I too did not go into detail on explaining the content in my second post because ''I did not know''. I didn't think anybody would kick up a big stink about it. In my first post I went into great detail about the MD/Genesis soundtrack to Lemmings and Finlay for one didn't like it, Finlay thought I was advertising which furthered his anger. When I then posted the first video Finlay couldn't understand what it was all about and says that none of it made any sense, so it seems to me that it makes no difference whether I give great detail on something or not, whatever I have to say or post will be recieved as negative posts. I'm not liked much on Youtube so it's no doubt that my bad luck would only follow me over here.

It's not a case of me ''blowing this way out of proportion'' i'm just bringing up these little bits that you and Finlay said in your first posts incase it goes undetected on here which would make me look like an ass.

I personally am a very open person who enjoys the fact that there are other gamers, artists, producers and singing popstars out there making their own versions of game music songs from my childhood and anyway it's not like the remixes and remakes are gonna overshadow the original versions. The original masterpieces especially on the Amiga will always be there. I personally think what Zonic did was a brilliant thing, she definitely has a beautiful voice, just a shame she can never get the video or song published as she did not compose the music, only the lyrics.

I think the fact that the videos I post on this forum contain some new content but are still related to Lemmings in some way keeps everything fresh and more interesting to this site. As they say: ''Variety Is A Spice Of Life''. 8) Adding something new but still staying true to the original formula can only be a positive thing. ;P

To help even more to make sense of the first video I posted, watch and hear this second video.

She is singing a Lemmings song so although the sound is completely different, it is still related to Lemmings. :thumbsup:

I wonder if this one will recieve negative feedback?

ccexplore = ''Youtube is full of these kinds of music video combining music (often remixed/remastered) with random snippets of video, only some of which are related to the video game''.

It wasn't just Finlay saying the video was unrelated but you too ccexplore.

You guys don't have to like it but it would be nice if you research the content in the video first in future before posting that the video is ''unrelated'' to Lemmings in such a negative way. I too am sorry for not explaining about the content in the video first off as I was unaware of the negative feedback it has now generated.

The video did not contain ''random imagery''only those who are unfamiliar with the SEGA Mega Drive console and it's FM-YM2612 sound chip and the Lemmings port itself would say that. I maybe new to this site but I know what is related and what is unrelated to post to this forum. I could've purposely posted a mash up I know of which has Justin Beiber singing over a Lemmings song which is entirely unrelated to each other but instead I posted something that was related.

First of all I myself did not remix the music track, someone else made it on Youtube by the username of ''tomatzu'' I got his permission to upload my own video with his version of the song, I also had to ask ArtyGirlZiggy ''Zonic'' for her images to put in the video and that there explains why there is two annotations on the video, one for tomatzu's original video and one for Zonic on her vocal album version. Sonic is in it too as a little small tribute to SEGA as the music (not just the bass but also the percussion) sounds like the Mega Drive.

If i'm guilty of anything then it's that I didn't explain all this in my first post but however I didn't think it really mattered and I certainly wasn't expecting so much negative feedback.

As for Finlay: About my first post, I was only expressing my love for the SEGA Mega Drive port of Lemmings, I was not advertising, just explaining in great detail how the MD/Genesis port sounds with it's arrangements of the songs. I've been a massive fan of Lemmings since I was a little boy and i've especially been exposed to the SEGA versions throughout my childhood and this is a topic about the music to Lemmings afterall so there should be nothing wrong with me explaining about the song list.

If anybody is wondering about the content in the video I posted. I honestly didn't mean to upset anybody. The music does sound like the Mega Drive/Genesis port if you listen carefully, but opinions will be opinions....

The footage was taken from both the Master System and Mega Drive ports aswell as images of Sonic The Hedgehog as the song's bass line shares extreme similarities to the 16-bit Sonic series. The girl is a young pop star on the internet who has yet to make her mark in the music industry, she sang two Lemmings songs on Youtube with her own lyrics added which is why she is in the video, so all content in the video is related to Lemmings.

I suggest in a kind way that some of you should do more research into the music of Lemmings before bitching about how this one video is unrelated when it really IS related to Lemmings.

Without a doubt in my mind the 16-bit SEGA Mega Drive version I think is the best. This is only my personal opinion so i'm not basing it on fact.

If you're a fan of the 16-bit Sonic The Hedgehog soundtracks, then there's no excuse why you wouldn't like the Lemmings Mega Drive soundtrack. The music is very lively with a reminicent late 1970's pop/disco orientated sound with a catchy beat in each music track. Very good and upbeat versions of the tunes, although in fairness I do think the other ports of Lemmings feature great soundtracks too especially the SNES and Master System but the Mega Drive OST does it for me.

SONGS INCLUDE:
1. Gallop From Opheus In The Underworld - Can Can
2. Pachelbel's Canon Tailor Made
3. How Much Is That Doggie In The Window
4. She'll Be Coming Round' The Mountain
5. Mozart's Rondo Alla Turca
6. Dance Of The Reed Flutes
7. O' Little Town Of Bethlehem
8. London Bridge Is Falling Down
9. Enjoy The Show
10. Ten Green Bottles
11. March Of The Mods
 and many, many more

The songs are all specially chosen as to being out of copyright, it originally had something to do with the original Amiga Lemmings sound producers not being able to compose their own music properly which led to musical arrangements of old songs.

I remember playing the SEGA Master System version this one time and on level 15 of FUN I decided to build this huge, long bridge which would start right at the edge of the declining steps to the bottom of the screen after the third column and end right before the exit house. As I recall upon the Lemming building the bridge, for whatever reason halfway through the building he stopped and turned around, when he came back again I still couldn't command him to finish building the uncompleted bridge and also no other skill could be commmanded to any Lemming. I ended up with no choice but to blow them all up and try again and on my second go at the level all the skills were selectable again and could be commanded to any Lemming.

A memory issue with the rom :o? I never knew that until now, very interesting.
