The former USSR countries are (in the order in which they were sung): Russia Lithuania Azerbaijian Belarus Tajikistan Armenia Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan Ukraine Kazakhstan Latvia Estonia Turkmenistan Georgia and Moldova.
My understanding is that GabeN Junk has some of Season 2, most (if not all) of Season 3 and 4, and most of Season 5. (keeps her fingers crossed that these episodes will be posted soon)
he has to get something for his computer. I don't quite remember what it is, but he said he'll get it sometime this month, and then...it's Carmen time!
haha! I tried to figure out what all they were saying! I didn't get very far.... lol! I love this song though - the original one, that is. "Long Cool Woman In A Black Dress" (I prefer the Rockapella arrangement)!
You know, I'm pretty sure this song was how I first heard about the breakup of the Soviet Union way back when I was five. Talk about nostalgia...

Man, remember when it was cool for cartoons to be informative? Carmen Sandiego, Animaniacs, Histeria! Those were the days

this is just a guess, but do you think they used the bonus round music because of the fact that the kids watching would recognize it?

Singing the former USSR to "Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)" by the Hollies. That's what made this show and the group so popular!!

I used to love watching the Rockapella music extras at the end of Carmen Sandiego. I'd also love to see the Seas song if anyone has it.

Does anyone have the A-MNE clip of Rockapella singing about the world's seas to the tune of Billy Joel's "The Longest Time"??

Relax, Lubber. He'll get to it when he gets to it and not a moment sooner. You should be a bit more like me: excited but patient.
emilysong2000 4 years ago 4
and just like me, Emily. I'm excited as well, but I'm being patient, too. =]
Aubster06 4 years ago 4
I'm glad of that Aubrey.
emilysong2000 4 years ago 4
It's all good, Emily. =]
oh, and Merry Christmas, too. That goes for everyone

jordanhass 4 years ago 2
Yes, this is the very same music that's used during the Map bonus round.
emilysong2000 4 years ago
It's also their version of "Long, Cool Woman in a Black Dress," except with different lyrics. Check out Rockapella, Vol. 2: From N.Y. Killer album!
