we hear the infamous final pound of the three pianos. As it fades, normally the needle would go to the center and that's it. However, everyone outside of the U.S. heard something different. For five seconds you hear a high pitched sound, only clearly audible to dogs (said to be put there for Paul's dog, Martha, as in "Martha My Dear"). Immediately it goes into three seconds of laughter, chatter, and complete nonsense. At this point, the needle goes into the center of the record, and depending on your turntable, it stays there and the sound would be looped, forever, until you take the needle off.

record that would have a stormtropper voice say something over and over, and I have a Colorado Crew double 7" that would just say "donut crew... donut crew... donut crew".
