2 minute version of Doctorin' the Tardis, with super cjeesy video (1988 after all)

8 minute version to play in the background while doing stuff (if you remember* when this song was hugely popular)

^ this version had an interesting comment about a book The KLF wrote, which maybe some recent "one hit wonders" (perhaps more than we'd like to think about) took seriously and/or followed religiously:

"a tongue-in-cheek step by step guide to achieving a No.1 single with no money or musical skills, and a case study of the duo's UK novelty pop No. 1 "Doctorin' the Tardis"."

I'll never forget when I first saw this, my mom and dad were out to an Oilers playoff game and I just happened to flip channels and it was on MuchMusic so being a Whovian I cranked up the volume and partied like only an 11 year old in the 80s could: dancing like a maniac wearing cool shades
