Twitter User Asks People What Is The Most Memorable Fake Song From A TV Show Or Movie That They Remember
In this week’s category of music, we’ll be playing… fake songs from TV shows and movies.
The perfect musical scoring in every film can set the mood for a scene. It can be so memorable that the song or background music becomes instantly linked to the film whenever people hear it.
Like Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On from Titanic or Dirty Dancing’s (I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life, people often associate their memories of the movie with the music used in epic scenes. Then there are songs that are included in movie or series plots.
These are the songs performed by certain characters, and you might remember their cover more than the actual artist who sang it. All of these elements play a role in deepening a movie’s impact on the audience’s mind.
However, there are also songs that aren’t even real but are so great that you would think they actually exist. This is the topic that people on Twitter discussed, rather than the usual questions.
Randal Otis was the original poster who asked both followers and non-followers what the most memorable fake movie song they could think of was, and they delivered. From silly song stints to well-composed tracks, there were all kinds of tweets about them.
Here’s Randal Otis’s Interesting Question

Need that '90s boy band vibe? Well, American Dad has a song for you.

Just because these songs are fake doesn’t mean they didn’t evoke the same feelings as real songs produced in the music industry. Some of them may be funny, but you’ve got to admit that they made that episode or film better when they were performed.
There are probably many more fake songs that haven’t been included. Better go on a movie marathon or binge-watch TV series to discover more.
