The timing matches so closely I'm convinced they must have used the original Yakity Sax music on the animatics to pace the scenes, and only replaced it with the soundalike track to avoid the cost of licensing.
the reason this pisses me off is cos i'm looking for the actual scene with the phoenix that plays the benny hill theme *sigh* why cant anyone upload it, I just wanna share the love *fluttershy lip quiver*
The version used in the cartoon appears to be a cover; it uses different instruments and stuff. But, anyone who has seen the original Benny Hill slapstick chase routines will get the in-joke. And those that don't can still enjoy the slapstick. It's a good homage, IMO.
Y'know, I sort of feel like this whole scene would have been a lot better if they had just used this version of the music. The twenty-somethings on the Internet would have found it even funnier, and it's not like the kids the show is aimed at would have suffered any great loss. In fact, they would have heard a fairly cultural piece of music.
@emmeeemm Even though I agree with you,I'm pretty sure you know how these things concerning songs/music work.
Hasbro would have to pay for the rights of this music and it would be too much of a hassle and all that jazz....Doing a cover for the music was actually a good idea...I mean,a lot of us still managed to recognize it anyway.
So effing awesome!! :D

Very nice editing. If no one had seen the original video, you'd be convinced this was legit
