Episode Theme Songs
After the character theme songs, you would've at least seen this coming. These are ideas for theme songs to episodes. Here's mine for Cookie Dough: Takin' Care of Business by Bachman-Turner Overdrive
You get up every morning From your alarm clock's warning Take the 8:15 into the city There's a whistle up above And people pushin', people shovin' And the girls who try to look pretty And if your train's on time You can get to work by nine And start your slaving job to get your pay If you ever get annoyed Look at me, I'm self-employed I love to work at nothing all day And I've been takin' care of business every day Takin' care of business every way I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine Taking care of business and working overtime Work out If it were easy as fishin' You could be a musician If you could make sounds loud or mellow Get a second-hand guitar Chances are you'll go far If you get in with the right bunch of fellows People see you having fun Just a-lying in the sun Tell them that you like it this way It's the work that we avoid And we're all self-employed We love to work at nothing all day And we be takin' care of business every day Takin' care of business every way I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine Takin' care of business and working overtime Take good care of my business When I'm away, every day You get up every morning From your alarm clock's warning Take the 8:15 into the city There's a whistle up above And people pushin', people shovin' And the girls who try to look pretty And if your train's on time You can get to work by nine And start your slaving job to get your pay If you ever get annoyed Look at me I'm self-employed I love to work at nothing all day And I've been taking care of business every day Takin' care of business every way I've been takin' care of business, it's all mine Takin' care of business and working overtime Takin' care of business Takin' care of business Takin' care of business Takin' care of business Takin' care of business ... |
Somehow, the episode "Blooooo" says Michael Jackson's "Thriller" to me.
|
"Everyone Knows It's Bendy" makes me think of "You're A Devil Of Disguise" by Elvis Persly.
|
"squeeze the day" makes me think of "Livin' in the Sunlight, Lovin' in the Moonlight" by tiny tim and "dare to be stupid" by weird al. oh, and "experimental film" by TMBG. and i guess you could say "lips of an angel" by hinder suits FMD.
|
The episode "Frankie My Dear" reminds me of the song by the Black Eyed Peas "Don't Phunk With My Heart".
|
The only song that I can think of for "Mac Daddy" was "Jump Jump" by Kris Kross. ("Mac Daddy makes you... JUMP JUMP!")
|

Bus The Two of Us- "Just The Two of Us
Who Let The Dogs In?- "Who Let The Dogs Out?" |
C: They're already puns. Most episode names are puns though... :)
Squeeze the Day: "Wraith Pinned to the Mist (and other games)" by Of Montreal. "Let's pretend we don't excist... Let's pretend we're in Anartica(sp?)..." Frankie My Dear: "Girls Just Want To Have Fun" by someone. :/ |
Quote:
The name of the artist that perfomed that song would be Cyndi Lauper. |
Quote:

A few that came to mind.
Bus The Two Of Us: "Road Trippin'," Red Hot Chili Peppers Setting A President: "Elected," Alice Cooper Everyone Knows It's Bendy: "@$$hole," Denis Leary I Only Have Surprise For You: First half--"Panic Attack," Dream Theater; Second half--"Sabotage," Beastie Boys IHFU...MUUP: "Jack@$$," Green Day |

"Frankie My Dear" should've had Mary MacGregor's "Torn Between Two Lovers".
|
Part of the episode "The Sweet Stench Of Success" reminds me of P. Diddy's "I'll Be Missing You".
|
These are the themes for various episodes:
Phone Home: The Call by the Backstreet Boys Store Wars: Complicated by Avril Lavigue World Wide Wabbit: Virus Alert by Weird Al Yankovic Bloo's Brothers: The Real Slim Shady Go Goo Go: Story of a girl Challenge of the Superfriends: Kryptonite by Three Doors Down Partying is such Sweet Soiree: Aaron's Party by Aaron Cartier. |
I mentioned this in the character theme song before but The Sweet Stench Of Success makes me think of "Far Away" by nickel back XD
This time, This place Misused, Mistakes Too long, Too late Who was I to make you wait Just one chance Just one breath Just in case there’s just one left ‘Cause you know, you know, you know That I love you I have loved you all along And I miss you Been far away for far too long I keep dreaming you’ll be with me and you’ll never go Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore One my knees, I’ll ask Last chance for one last dance ‘Cause with you, I’d withstand All of hell to hold your hand I’d give it all I’d give for us Give anything but I won’t give up ‘Cause you know, you know, you know That I love you I have loved you all along And I miss you Been far away for far too long I keep dreaming you’ll be with me and you’ll never go Stop breathing if I don’t see you anymore So far away Been far away for far too long So far away Been far away for far too long But you know, you know, you know I wanted I wanted you to stay ‘Cause I needed I need to hear you say That I love you I have loved you all along And I forgive you For being away for far too long So keep breathing ‘Cause I’m not leaving Hold on to me and never let me go |
This may seem weird, but that song really makes me think of the whole series....of course that could be my love of Nickelback talking:P ............I really have nothing elese to contribute.....
*runs* |
Bon Jovi's Say It Isn't So for "Say It Isn't Sew". A lame idea but everytime I see the episode's title, that song starts playing in my head. 8D
|
I can't think of the exact name of the song but it's by Evanessance (sp?).
I thought it would have been heart-meltingly lovely in "Good Wilt Hunting". Just picture that scene in the begining where Wilt looks out the window all sad and then the song lyrics start... "I’m so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave cause your presence still lingers here And it won’t leave me alone These wounds won’t seem to heal This pain is just too real There’s just too much that time cannot erase When you cried I wiped away all of your tears When you’d scream I fight away all of your fears And I’ve held your hand through all of these years But you still have all of me You used to captivate me By your resonating light Now I’m bound by the life you’ve left behind Your face, it haunts My once pleasant dreams Your voice it chased away All of the sanity in me These wounds won’t seem to heal This pain is just too real There’s just too much that time cannot erase When you cried I wiped away all of your tears When you’d scream I fight away all of your fears And I’ve held your hand through all of these years But you still have all of me I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone But though you’re still with me I’ve been alone all along When you cried I wiped away all of your tears When you’d scream I fight away all of your fears And I’ve held your hand through all of these years But you still have All….Of….Me" I think these words pretty much just about has Wilt all through them, through every line and through every word. It's a deep and perfect song for him, in my opinion. |
Akon's lonely might be good for sweet stench of successs when mac and bloo think of each other..

Bus the Two of Us: "Another One Rides the Bus" ~Weird Al.

How about this one for Frankie My Dear? I'm A Believer by Smash Mouth (sung from Mac's point of view!)

This is a great song for GWH. It's definately got that gut-wrenching sorrow that you can sort of assume Wilt is feeling throughout the episode. (Mind you, I'm guessing on all that: All I've seen is of the actual ep is twenty solid seconds, but I've read the synopsis and have gotten a good deal of info from posts other users have on the forums.) Of course, I'm biased here-- I love "My Immortal," and come dangerously close to crying whenever I hear it. )When my school did a Veterans' Day ceremony a few years ago, they did a slideshow of pictures and this was the song they used. I cried then.) Good choice, Tonya! I think I feel a fanfic coming on... * Quickly switches to MS word to start writing * |
The episode setting a president could use rammstein's amerika.
|
'Challenge Of The Superfriends' - 'Hero Management' by Biffy Clyro. Lame, I know...
|
Gorillaz's "Clint Eastwood" could be suitable for "Nightmare on Wilson Way".
|
Here's a fun one:
"Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)" by Edison Lighthouse for "Frankie My Dear." ( :frankiesmile: ) It's lame, but the song is about a girl who spreads love wherever she is, and that's basically the whole plot of FMD. (Mind you this song is from the 1970's-- I have odd musical tastes. Most of the stuff on my iPod is from my parents. They have great music!) ========= Added 10/19: Got another one! "Online" by Brad Paisley for "World Wide Wabbit." I'm so much cooler online Yeah, I'm cooler online The actual song is a little different, but these lines just give the whole image of that video Bloo and Mac got (not telling so people who haven't seen the episode can have a chance and be surprised) a great ironic humor. ========= Added 10/20: And yet another... "Homeward Bound" by Simon and Garfunkle for "Good Wilt Hunting." I'm sittin' in the railway station Got a ticket for my destination On a tour of one night stands My suitcase and guitar in hand And every stop is neatly planned For a poet and a one man band Homeward bound I wish I was Homeward bound Home, where my thoughts escaping Home, where my music's playing Home, where my love lies waiting Silently for me Everyday's an endless stream Of cigarettes and magazines And each town looks the same to me The movies and the factories And every strangers face I see Reminds me that I long to be Homeward bound I wish I was Homeward bound Home, where my thoughts escaping Home, where my musics playing Home, where my love lies waiting Silently for me Tonight 'Ill sing my songs again I'll play the game and pretend But all my words come back to me In shades of mediocrity Like emptyness in harmony I need someone to comfort me Homeward bound I wish I was Homeward bound Home, where my thoughts escaping Home, where my musics playing Home, where my love lies waiting Silently for me Silently for me Silently for me This song just fits Wilt whole cross-country journey about going back to his old neighborhood, and I'd imagine going back home to Foster's. (Man, I'm long-winded today... :gooblab:) ======= 10/24: Got a new one... AGAIN "I Get Around" by the Beach Boys for "House of Bloos," particularly these lines: I'm gettin' bugged driving up and down the same old strip I gotta finda new place where the kids are hip My buddies and me are getting real well known Yeah, the bad guys know us and they leave us alone This just sums up Mac and Bloo's feelings by the end of the pilot ep perfectly. |
L7's 1992 song "Pretend We're Dead" totally fits Foster's 2007 Halloween special "Nightmare On Wilson Way" like a really zombiefied glove, in my opinion.
|
Puffy AmiYumi's "K2G" can good for "Go Goo Go" when Goo creates lots of imaginary friends.
|
"Nightmare on Wilson Way" - any slasher film theme.
|
For the ep dear frankie.
We're no strangers to love You know the rules and so do I A full commitment's what I'm thinking of You wouldn't get this from any other guy I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you We've know each other for so long Your heart's been aching But you're too shy to say it Inside we both know what's been going on We know the game and we're gonna play it And if you ask me how I'm feeling Don't tell me you're too blind to see Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you (Ooohh give you up) (Ooohh give you up) Never gonna give Never gonna give, (give you up) Never gonna give Never gonna give, (give you up) We've know each other for so long Your heart's been aching But you're too shy to say it Inside we both know what's been going on We know the game and we're gonna play it I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling Gotta make you understand Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you Never gonna make you cry Never gonna say goodbye Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you. |
I think we just got Rickroll'd.

I know I've said this on another thread, but "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon for "Berry Scary:"
You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht Your hat strategically dipped below one eye Your scarf it was apricot You had one eye in the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner They'd be your partner, and.... You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you Don't you? Don't you? You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive Well you said that we made such a pretty pair and that you would never leave But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee, clouds in my coffee and.... You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you..... Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won Then you flew your Lear jet up to Nova Scotia to see the total eclipse of the sun Well, you're where you should be all of the time And when you're not you're with Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend Wife of a close friend, and.... You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you..... Just the way Bloo totally ignores Berry and her attempts at winning him over makes me think of this song. |
You know I've always found the song "Burn in My Light" by the band Mercy Drive to be a fitting song to describe most if not all of the events that transpired in the episode "The Sweet Stench of Success"
Lets take a look at the lyrics shall we... The nebula rising up out from the black of deceiving lies A new star is born now he brings you the light with his hands untied They tried so hard to follow, but no one can. Inside you're all so hollow, you understand? Hey! Nothing you can say! Nothing's gonna change what you've done to me. Now it's time to shine. I'm gonna take what's mine while you're burning inside my light. I give and you take and I waited for you but I made a mistake. It's clear that your fear is so near because I see the look on your face. You tried to hold me under. I held my breath. Alone and now you wonder what I possess. Hey! Nothing you can say! Nothing's gonna change what you've done to me. Now it's time to shine. You're gonna burn in the light Hey! Nothing you can say! Nothing's gonna change what you've done to me. Now it's time to shine. I'm gonna take what's mine while you're burning inside my light. Hey! Nothing you can say! Nothing's gonna change what you've done to me. Now it's time to shine. I'm gonna take what's mine Take what's mine Hey! Nothing you can say! Nothing's gonna change what you've done to me. Now it's time to shine. I'm gonna take what's mine You're gonna burn in my light Burn in my light! |
Wow, this is old. Still, if I don't post these I'll lose what little sanity I have left.
For "Jackie Khones and the Case of the Overdue Library Crook" I'd go with either "Secret Agent Man" or the Peter Gunn theme. Take your pick. |
I thought for the upcoming "Bloo Tube" episode, the Ringo Starr/Buck Owens ditty "Act Naturally" would be good.
|
Bad, bad, bad suggestion for the soon-to-be-aired "Bloo Tube"..."Video Killed the Radio Star" - Buggles. Lame, I know...::)
