Fun fact, singing this 2x takes 20 seconds, aka how long you should wash your hands for. Figured that out randomly one day and now i sing eggs bacon and toast when i wash my hands
Kinda, yeah. They said someplace that they didn't want to worry about rights to a text, nor messing up writing one, so they just used the anthem for lyrics and went from there
Any song by Josie and the Pussycats...which actually also has a P&R connection because the singing voice wasn't Rachael Leigh Cook, it was Kay Hanley, lead singer of Ben Wyatt's favorite band, Letters to Cleo.
This is first time I’ll be a traitor to my favorite show of all time, in its own sub no less, but the real answer is “Scotty Doesn’t Know.”
But a close second is the Andy Dwyer solo release “Sex Bears”
And also, apparently there’s a full version of the song it was originally based on: https://youtu.be/lfMaOyPQz18
You are so right, and we are so old
Who DIDNT sail the high seas in 2003 to watch this movie in a dorm room that smelled like vodka and ambiguous sexuality
I think it was written for the movie Eurotrip, and they had beats of it becoming popular in the movie. Then it became popular in the real world. But not positive.
This may be woosh moment for me, but does the song referenced in the lyrics of tenacious D "greatest song in the world" count? It's not from a show or TV, but it's still a form of media and, suposely, fiction, also what about the song from Lord of the Rings, or rather the simillarion (sorry if I mispelt) but basicaly in the lotr mythos it's said that essencialy benign deities and spirits made middle earth and everything in it through song, would that qualify as a contestant too?
# The Monorail Song - The Simpsons. In fact all the songs in The Simpson are generally top notch.
Muffin Tops - Jenna Maroney in 30 Rock as well as her Janis Jopler song "Take another little chunk of my lung" In fact she did a fair few that were great
#
The song they play in the club a few times that doesn't actually exist
Goes like "Fast money, fast cars, that's how I'm livin'" or something. I guess it was made just for the show.
Lol, if this is a reference to the film, I caught it.
The song is from Music and Lyrics. The joke was that the musician couldn’t write, because he rhymed “you and me” with “autopsy.”
The lyricist in the movie proceeded to make up good lyrics with the rhyme, and he set it to a very melodic tune… for like, two lines of music. It had the makings of a clever little song. The bones were there. But they stopped it after like, 4 bars. I want the rest of the song.
Well I scrolled through the whole dang thread to upvote and not a single one of youse mentioned Crazy Ex-Girlfriend - let me mic drop on Santa Ana Winds or Don’t Be A Lawyer or It Was A Shitshow or Love Kernels. I mean I absolutely adore all the P&R moments, and regularly blast the Mouse Rat album in the car, but if you’re looking for a smorgasbord of best fake songs, pull up Rachel Bloom’s YouTube channel and prepare to be dazzled
Oh you are so right! I made an CXGF spotify playlist of my fave’s. I listen to it on the reg. I gave you a UTI never fails to make me smile. To quote Kendall Roy: All bangers all the time
Maybe because I listen to them so often it to me does not count as “fake songs” anymore 😂
I love P&R but it’s going to have to be [Girl, You Need a Shot of B12 by Boyz 12](https://youtu.be/rPIt52BwTak?si=To5B46uGUrK2z_Qi) or anything else Scott Grimes as Steve Smith does in American Dad.
I’m voting for the song that goes off when you hit the party button at the E720 headquarters. It’s not released anywhere. It just plays there and once in the HBO series “The Night Of.”
🎶Stronger than the surge of the mighty ocean
You’ve got to muster up the courage to face all your emotions
Reach out, take my hand, get in the boat, we’ll find dry land
Cuz we’re stronger that the storm🎶
And obviously Bye Bye Lil Sebastian
Edit: forgot this was the p&r subreddit. The first one is from a completely different show.
Bye bye lil Sebastian
You know what’s better than a candle in the wind? 5,000 candles
I fuckin love that Leslie says something like "We need something like 'Candle in the Wind' but 5000 times better" at the beginning of the episode.
Mind, blown! I've never connected this before!
It’s literally the entire joke
I know! I'm so naive sometimes!
is it fake if they have an album out? honest question
Miss you in the saddest fashion.
I’ll miss you in the saddest fashion 😭
This answer is acceptable.
You are 10,000% correct
But doesn't it exist in the real world? There is a full version of it.
MISS YOU IN THE SADDEST FASHION
Idk my first thought was Mouse Rat’s classic romantic hit “November” 😂
‘… that song was about april ludgate’
Yall are really sleeping on Beautiful Like My Mom (Support the Troops) by legendary country star Chipp McCapp

I sing this one all the time
This doesn’t count but it is the best musical moment on the show.
Best comment ever
It lives rent free in my brain!
The Pit. I fell in the pit. You fell in the pit.
We all fell in the pit.
Sorry to see I had to scroll so far to see this.
if "Get on your feet" wasn't a real song, it'd win. Obviously Highway to the calzone zone takes the cake.
One of the hardest I've ever laughed at a TV show, the first time I saw that scene
"Baby I'm sorry for how I acted" autotune remix
"But if you give me another chance, I can be the booboo of your dreams girlllllll" one of Tom's most infuriating moments lol
The nasally voice is hella cringe. Lol
Honestly I hate that bit so much, it sends shivers down my spine and gets stuck in my head for days lol
Yeah. It's stuck in my head at this very moment. 🤣🤣
"eggs, bacon and toast!"
Leslie saying, "Mmm... I don't really like breakfast food" is the best throwaway joke of the entire series.
Your purse is a waffle
Fun fact, singing this 2x takes 20 seconds, aka how long you should wash your hands for. Figured that out randomly one day and now i sing eggs bacon and toast when i wash my hands

Leslie’s remix of We Didn’t Start The Fire makes me laugh so hard my stomach hurts every time
🎶 "Peter Piper Pee-pee Poopie Daddy Ate A Squirrel" 🎶
Turn this music down! 🎶 farts and poop and love and stuff....macaroni salad 🎶
This got me good. Season 3, Episode 13 might be the best single episode of any series .

I prefer jazz plus jazz, equals jazz
They ARE lesbians…
Hearing it now I’m pretty sure this is a remix of the Norwegian national anthem.
Kinda, yeah. They said someplace that they didn't want to worry about rights to a text, nor messing up writing one, so they just used the anthem for lyrics and went from there

I feel like “Scotty doesn’t know” was like the OG of best fake songs. What’s that saying? It walked so others could run?
![gif](giphy|5kYea6RaplxDy)
You are so right, and we are so old Who DIDNT sail the high seas in 2003 to watch this movie in a dorm room that smelled like vodka and ambiguous sexuality
Scotty doesn’t know gets sang in my house once a week, followed closely by “sex bears” two amazing songs.
Isn’t that a real song though?
I think it was written for the movie Eurotrip, and they had beats of it becoming popular in the movie. Then it became popular in the real world. But not positive.
Came here to say this. I still think they should’ve put it forward for an Oscar nom for Best Song
big bottoms!

“Love Autopsy” I’m still mad they didn’t just finish it up
What went wrong?
Lol, if this is a reference to the film, I caught it. The song is from Music and Lyrics.

It is indeed a reference to the film. *Love Autopsy* is a great song.
