We Represent The High Voice Crew?

Anyone think the "High Voice Crew" is a vague reference to the Lollipop Guild from The Wizard of Oz movie?

The thought never occurred to me! My vote would be "no". -- tomstiff 19:56, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)
If it is, wicked awesome! But I doubt it, so... --Ookelaylay 01:35, 4 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Probably not. — talk Bubsty edits 17:33, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
More urgently: were the Munchkins on helium? —AbdiViklas 04:15, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
Watching The Wizard of Oz on AMC with director's commentary, I learned that there was a single Munchkin who delivered the high voice naturally; the rest were digitally altered. The Lyrical Wondermind 02:26, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
That's impossible as The Wizard of Oz came out in 1939 and digital computers weren't invented until the '60s or '70s. — User:ACupOfCoffee@ 08:29, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
My bad. Not digitally altered, just sped up to create higher-pitched sound, like a record or something. The Lyrical Wondermind

Remark

  • Strong Mad's balloon does not deflate at all when he inhales the helium from it, which may explain why his voice stayed the same.

That's not true.--Jnelson09 22:46, 13 January 2006 (UTC)


Inside References

  • The Strong Sad easter egg is a reference to Main Page 15 ("I'm sad that I'm flying.") And if you listen closely you'll notice there is a pause between "that" and "he's", showing that the brother used the "I'm sad that I'm flying" and simply took out "I'm flying" and replaced it with "He's flying"

That's not true. Was there a different version previously? (See also, Remarks, above)

Sped up

I had one of Strong Bad's Quotes of the Week sped up (well, recorded in Nintendogs - the white record), and sped it up. It sounded like Cartman almost. I guess it would probably the same type of voice in this one though. --68.145.103.189 01:26, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
