One of my favorite things about this song is the way it was originally placed on the record. There's the huge piano chord, then silence, then a high pitched sound allegedly to mess with people's dogs, and then a second or two of gibberish speech that endlessly loops around the inner circle of the record.
Digital media plays that gibberish for a few seconds and then fades out, which is a different experience from the original record which would play it until you actually stopped the record.
It reminds me of how the move from CRT to LCD televisions broke the NES light gun, and makes me wonder what other edge cases we're unknowingly changing or disabling with current technology upgrades.
