I found the old thread but decided not to bump it since it was two years old and ten pages long.
I was listening to I Wish I Could Go Back to College from Avenue Q a few days ago and finally heard something that now drives me crazy everytime I hear the song. At the beginning, when Princeton comes in, you can hear a guitar string "talk" (the metalic squeaking sound that happens when you run your finger across the fretboard) right after he says "you know WHO..."
So lets share those small technical (and vocal) f'ups that you wouldn't notice at first, but once you do, it's the only thing you hear
Here's a few of my favs:
Along Came Bialy on the OBC. Around the line "so romantic, they were frantic" a second track of Lane singing is badly layered on top of the first vocal track
In Old Bavaria on the OBC. You might have to wear headphones for this one. At the very end of the song, if you crank up your volume, you can hear Mel Brooks in the booth praising "it was funny!"
and of course who could forget
"I should tell you, I should tell you, I have always love you..." Pascal Fail

You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott
