Shep used to play it - I believe it was called 'Jane Stop this Crazy Thing' and I was told it was by TeeVeeTunes - it was a catchy tune with all sorts of 60's tv show samples (including jetsons of course) does anyone know where one could aquire this song - i've been searching for a long time - if anyone can help me out I would be most happy.

I have the 12" single which was released here in Canada on A&M Records in 1986. The song is called "Jane, Get Me Off This Crazy Thing!" and it wasn't by any artist in particular. It simply states - The Tee Vee Toons Master Mix (Late Night Dance Mix) and was mixed from the album "Televisions Greatest Hits" - 65 TV themes from the 50's & 60's.

WOW - What a fantastic crew we've got here! Thank you ever so much for your help and the additional info! I am indeed ever so happy :-)
Is 12 minutes a record for a possitive ID of a song - (did a quick sampling of other responses and found another by Paul in 12 minutes). Totally impressed!

Armed with the info provided I found the ColdCut-Stop this crazy thing... Not quite it - but it may just be some mix. But the info provided by Dave and Google gave me these two references: http://stevexs.tripod.com/comedy/rect/tvtj.html http://www.drdemento.com/playlists/funny25/funny25.86.html Which look to be just about right - now if only I could find the song - either for sale or download... *sigh* - I'm sure it will be found and one day I will hear the song again :-)
Thanks again for all your help.

Hi Andre,
I think Dave is correct.The song you are looking for is -- The Tee Vee Toons Master Mix (Late Night Dance Mix).
What scares me is that I actually have this 12" as well. If you're dying to get a copy, I might be able to part with mine...
