Thru a Double Slit is a hip hop track sung by an Electron in the episode "Quantum Fun". The song explains the Double-slit experiment, a scientific demonstration about the physics of light and matter.
Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Yo, I'm about to drop some quantum mechanical super science on y'all!
(Oh, okay!)
[Verse 1]
You take two slits, put 'em on a barrier
in front of a wall with this general area!
We'll show what's the focus of this precarious
display of sheer quantum hysteria!
[Chorus]
Shoot some electrons thru a double slit!
What do you get? What do you get?
Shoot some electrons thru a double slit!
What do you get? What do you get?
[Verse 2]
If it exits a wave, then patterns display
across the wall. "But how," you say,
"can a miniscule singular subatomic particle
be so ubiquitous and diabolical?"
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
But wait! The act of observation
changes the effects of this conversation!
'Cause when you measure and take a hard look,
the electron is in one place, it stay's put!
[Chorus]
Trivia[]
- Robin premiered this song for the other four Titans to help them understand quantum mechanics.
- This is the 5th rap song that has NOT been sung by any of the Titans.
- The four previous ones are Straight Buggin', Five Whole Days, "GO! (battle remix)", and "GO! (remix)" remix.
- This is also the second rap song was sung by series storyboard artist David Gemill. First it was "Straight Buggin'" in "TV Knight 2".
- Several times throughout the music video, the rapping Electron is splattered onto a wall. Although being reduced to a blue stain is usually fatal, he somehow survives to keep spitting.
