You can hear TSOH in the part where they show the Air India flight footage - timestamp 28m 43s

Goes well with the travelling vibe
you could say conventional ... and I could claim intentional

A bit weird. I mean, it's sweet and confortable to listen something like that in a hotel elevator but well, I wish the song change for the better listening the whole thing and it gets more personality as a song.

I've slowed down the part where Neil was fast-forwarding the tape of demos in the documentary. This is what I got:

Yes, if you play this slowed down version at half speed you can more easily make it out as Bubadubadubadum. I reckon if it was slowed by around 0.75 of the current version it would sound accurate. Great job! Did Neil fast forward any other tapes?
Woof.

I have slowed it down a little more now. It does sound like Bubadubadubadum indeed. Thanks for helping me out here.

Yes, I still remember seeing on the RAH corridor with Neil when he was making the doc.
