![]() Now, PC games, especially older PC games, tend to be just a little hit and miss with their file formats. The game is the only media ever to feature the TV series’ entire theme song, “You’re Standing on My Neck” by Splendora, only one verse of which is ever heard on the show.Īs I was looking for the best possible quality version of the song for my old little packrat hoard, I decided to go to the Internet Archive, source out a copy of this game myself, and see exactly what I was up against. You see, regardless of where each of these uploads came from (and no doubt they’re a few generations down the line, probably thanks to a few dubious MP3 websites), they’re all sourced from a little-known PC game tie-in to Daria called Daria’s Inferno, as the Wikipedia article mentions: That, lads, is what I’m here to discuss today. ![]() Of course, if you look on YouTube now, you’ll find a bunch of not exactly brilliant quality uploads…of the full song! So where do these come from then? It was used as the theme song to one of the most fondly remembered 90s shows, and the full song has never been released, not even on some weird promo disc. As they go over in their retrospective interview with Billboard, though, the Splendora sisters have never been able to release this song properly. Sardonic and monotone as the show’s namesake, it’s a lovely musical buzzsaw in a decade full of ’em. One thing that I do quite like is its theme song, the fabled “You’re Standing on My Neck” by Splendora. (I am aware of that Daria restoration project, though, might be something to look into.) mon loves it though. I’ve only ever seen bits and pieces of the show, admittedly (I like what I’ve seen, though), and probably won’t go digging for more unless they restore all the music. ![]() Posted by mariteaux on October 12th, 2020 filed in Modding. ![]() Finding the Daria Theme Song in an Old PC Game ![]()
