It was in like 2007 so I honestly don't remember the site. All of the episodes have clearly been transferred from VHS so the quality isn't great but if you want them, you'll probably still be able to find them if you search online through google or something.

Got to ask some questions about the music! "1) There were rumors about 3 "In The Darkness" versions besides the Bricriu's one. If that's true, which ones? I'm still a bit lost about the difference between the versions we heard on the show. I think it was my friend Kevin who wrote a few lines of Bricriu’s version, as a parody – or maybe I wrote those words at his suggestion, can’t remember. The original version was the full song, then our exec Lee Gaither thought it would make a good theme song for the series, so we did a shortened version. 2) Bricriu's version. How did that came up? It was really funny and one of my favorite performances, so how did that idea came to you guys? Was it fun to play around with the series theme song? You’d have to remind me what episode that was in. Bricriu came about originally (as an inhabitant of Jack) because we were low on money at the end of the first season. So we shot most of it in a warehouse. 3) Which version of "More Like a River" was chosen for your CD? The piano version is the only one I have. I wish I had the original. 4) There were 3 versions of "Rebecca" on the show, the one played in Siren that is in your CD and was on Disney's website, the piano version and there's another guitar version that is played in the beginning of "Rebecca" episode, is there a full recording of that version? I’m sure we made a full version for the episode – that’s what’s played over the climax. 5) We know about your CD, but did you kept any other version of the songs? If not, why? Did you had access to it? My friend at the post house made me a CD with the versions he chose at the time. Not for release, since Disney owns the publishing, but they may have gotten out there some other way. 6) "Star-Dot-Star" - there's two studio clips on the end credits of its episode, one sung by the cast and the other one by "gremlins", is there any full recording with the whole song or was it recorded piece by piece? Is there really a gremlin version? That’s funny! I guess I’d forgotten. No, that’s all there is. We had one version submitted that I didn’t like, so the props master and I wrote it in the basement one night. 7) Was "Lorena" fully recorded or only played live? This must be season 3 – I wasn’t there for season 3 – Terry Frewer wrote those songs. 8) There's an acoustic clip of "She Sells" that is played in "Medium", if I'm not mistaken, was it a live clip or there is a full acoustic version? I think that’s when Molly was writing the song, yes? I had the composer create fragments of the songs, after the fact, so we could fictionally present Molly in the process of composing them. Then Mack would have to learn the fingering on guitar, to play along with the track. 9) Mackenzie's version of "Another World", the studio version, does it have David's vocals as the live version? I don’t think we re-recorded David Steele’s vocal for the stage version – I don’t remember bringing David back in. Likely the same vocal, but the actor playing Fi’s dad lip-synced to it for the first time. 10) "In The Darkness" lyrics are great! I love them, but Disney didn't have any problem using it? I mean, we know about some things that were scrapped like that Chrysalis episode because of its theme and after that I started wondering how did ITD managed to stay on the show. I’m not sure they paid much attention to the lyrics, or the songs. They didn’t like the explicitness of the alcoholism storyline in Chrysalis (perhaps among other things) but I don’t think they were aware that ITD was Molly singing about her alcoholism and recovery (among other things).11) This one is not a question, I just wanted to say a bit about "New Math", like WOW, it is such an amazing song, its lyrics are rally clever and it takes time for you to realize how serious it is because of the music, really great job! There are a few things in the show that relate to my own childhood – 2 are divorce-related. One was the black monster in “Nightmare” (from a nightmare I had at 7, just before my parents divorced) and then the feelings behind “New Math”, the damage we adults do by forgetting (or not caring) what our “personal choices” do to our kids. 12) "Chicago Blues" I heard that there's a version sung by Mack, is it true? Yes, I have both versions of it, I think. 13) "Land of Free", I'm not sure if someone asked about this already, but was it a full song? Instrumental song maybe? Is that the instrumental or fragment from “Transplant” It’s just a fragment that Terry Frewer wrote for the episode, to give a sense of the old band’s material. 14) What about "Rick's Melody", is there a full, long version of it? Is that the one from “Medium” That was just a fragment. Last ones, sorry for asking so much stuff >.< 15) There seems to be 2 version of Love Is Broken, if that's true, what are the difference between them and which one is in your CD? I have the original version. I tried to the song to fit what I thought the script would require, but in the edit it turned out that the song (as long as it was) wasn’t long enough, so we had to edit, repeating bars to extend it. Great Pink Floyd-esque guitar solo by Jeff. 16) I know that it is really complicated, but I was wondering if we could really try to get this CD out? I’ve tried to get Disney to make them available on iTunes, but they haven’t done that."

I think that 33tracks CD is real too, Jon confirmed some of its versions.

So cool that you were able to get answers! It's sad to read about the "Nightmare" monster being inspired from his own childhood dream.
I liked how he said he doesn't think Disney paid attention to the lyrics. I bet they do now for their new shows!

Disney's probably a control freak now.
We were lucky to get this show and its first two seasons as they were meant to be.

Nice Q&A! I'm not sure if it's funny or sad though that it's been so long he's forgotten a few things, like the song "Lorena" from "Sacrifice."
I wonder if he would be interested in rewatching the show if we invited him to a livestream and he had time for it XD

Yeah, I noticed that, too, Cat. I am too afraid to ask him. He may be totally against streaming the show.
Mackenzie sure sang it beautifully live if it wasn't recorded!

How do we know about Sugar's CD?
That takemeback girl got Jon's CD with someone that got it with someone from the show and Jon already said he wasn't the one who chose the versions and made the CD. So maybe Sugar's CD was also done by someone else and might also be out there?

$50? I paid $80 for mine. I only got the DVDs after the first purge of So Weird episodes from youtube, though so your plan would have worked if Disney wasn't such a copy-right Nazi. (Plot Twist: Two Disney Executives are selling the bootleg DVDs in a contest to see who can get people to pay the most for them) Can't say I regret it, though, considering it's better quality for vidding (most of the time) and I rewatch the series so often. I paid $50 for mine the first time then got another set for back up for $30
