** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2uZgmedE-E&feature=related "Now he's got superpowers, he's no ordinary kid, he's Ben 10..."]
** That song somehow combines [[Ear Worm]] -ness with a rather strange set of mondegreens for [[Shapeshifter The Troper|this troper]], who, when first hearing it, remembered certain parts as "... and stuck itself upon his wrist with secret solitid" and "fighting as heroes from outer space!"
** This troper remembers when that series came out, Neopets did a sponsor game for it (some Memory-esque matching game), ''with the theme song on a loop''. Grahhhhh! Years later, when she finally gave the series a shot, she was glad the theme song for the sequel was purely instrumental.

It's a spoof of ''[[Schoolhouse Rock]]'', so the [[Ear Worm]] affect was probably intentional. Still... must... resist... urge... to... sing in public.

* And then the 90s kicked off with a song people can't forget even if they want to: ''[[Denver, the Last Dinosaur]]'', a show about a dinosaur who'll show you a world you never saw before. From the people who brought you the ''[[Voltron]]'' and ''[[Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs]]'' examples above, natch. [[World Events Productions]] was notorious for producing songs like this (partially, of course, as a [[Viral Marketing|marketing strategy]]).

"Great. Now I have this song stuck in my head."
—Dr. Doofenshmirtz, Phineas and Ferb
|
You might or might not remember these cartoons, but it's inevitable their music is stuck in your mind.
Subpages
Nicktoons
- IT'S THE BEEEESSST DAAAAAAYYY EVERRRRRR (BEEESSST DAAAAY EVERRRRRR....)
- "Ohhhhhhhhhhhh... who lives in a pineapple under the sea?"
- Intentional. The creators wanted to make the most irritating theme song in cartoon history.
- F is for friends who do stuff together...
- Harry Potter style!
- This troper SOOOO did that first.
- THE C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G SONG!
- The techno rave from the "Jellyfish Jam" episode.
- The Goofy Goober theme song from The Movie.
- Which is actually "I Wanna Rock" by Music/TwistedSister. They even used the same backing track; the group shouts of "Rock!" original echoed the chorus.
- He could mean "I'm a Goofy Goober yeah! You're a Goofy Goober yeah! We're all Goofy Goofy Goofy Goobers yeah!" It certainly qualifies.
- This is a little ditty I call, The Campfire Song Song.
- Let's gaaather round the campfire and sing our campfire song—Our C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song...
- Dun, dun , DUUUUUUUN.
- Let's gaaather round the campfire and sing our campfire song—Our C-A-M-P-F-I-R-E S-O-N-G song...
- The Krusty Krab Pizza, Is the Pizza, For you and Me!
- The best time to wear a striped sweater.......is all the time.....
- "Take a penny and some magic..."
- "It's shaping up to be a wonderful holiday..."
- And of course - Sweet, Sweet Victory.
- "The jelly-elly-elly-elly fishing song! * clap!*
- Round and round, the record spins all day, so listen to our musical way! Do do do do dodo do do DO do, from an episode called "Ear Worm", of all things.
- This cover somehow managed to make that one even MORE infuriatingly catchy. "Ear Worm", indeed.
- "SECRET TUNNEL! SECRET TUNNEL! Through the mountain, secret-secret-secret-secret TUNNEL! Yeah!"
- "Hey, I just remembered the end of that song! * plink* And dieeeeed.".
- "secret tunnel..."
- For that matter, anything Iroh sings. "Little Soldier Boy", "The Girls of Ba-Sing-Se", "All Seasons For Love", etc.
- You mean, any song in the entire series. "Big bad badger moles, coming to get me, come on guys, help me out...?"
- Yes. Yes indeed.
- Agni help you if you get "Little Soldier Boy" stuck in your head. People will assume something's seriously wrong if you can't stop crying for no apparent reason.
- Little soldier boy comes marching home, comes marching home... excuse me, I have something in my eye.....
- You mean, any song in the entire series. "Big bad badger moles, coming to get me, come on guys, help me out...?"
- Even the score is catchy! Specifically, the ending credits music and the Fire Nation dance party music.
- Very much so. Including the opening theme. (naaa, na na naaa, na na naaa...)
- He's gonna catch 'em all cause he's Danny Phantom!
- Possibly a lampshade with Ember's addicting song: Oh, EMBEEEEEEEEEEEEER! YOU WILL REMEMBEEEEEEEEEEEEEER (MY NAAAAAAAAAAAAME)!!

- I need to buy some CDs, I need to buy some gum, I mow the grass, I clean the house, I think I deserve some...SOME MO` ALLOWANCE!
- I'm a dog, you're a dog, EVERYBODY DO THE DOG! Betcha gonna do the dog all day long!
- The Quailman theme.
- Where's my sock? Where's my so-ock!
- So if you like my style, and you wanna talk a while, just call me! (Doug! Doug! Doug!)
- Banging on a trashcan, drumming on a streetlight, strumming on my banjo...
- "Timmy is an average kid that no one understands."
- "You know they walk a mile just to see me smile; my shiny teeth and me!"
- "V! I! C-K-Y! The sound of her name makes the little kids cry!"
- "Nice! Nice! She's So Nice! She's So Nice, Nicety-Nice!"

- Witchdoctor from the Rugrats movie (though originally it was Alvin and the Chipmunks).. This troper still starts singing that song whenever she sees a monkey. "Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang wall walla bing bang!"
- Any song from the Musical Episode
- It's the Rugrat Rap
- And despite being full instrumental the theme song counts
- Cynthia! She's a really cool dancer! Cynthia! Boogie to the groove now.
- Emika's song from the All Grown Up pilot.
- Ren and Stimpy: Happy Happy Joy Joy/ Happy Happy Joy Joy
- What Rolls down stairs/ Alone or in Pairs/ Rolls over the Neighbor's Dog...

- When there's trouble you know who to call...
- Don't forget the Birds of Prey theme.
- "It started when an alien device did what it did; and stuck itself around his wrist with secrets that it hid..."
- "Now he's got superpowers, he's no ordinary kid, he's Ben 10..."
- That song somehow combines Ear Worm -ness with a rather strange set of mondegreens for this troper, who, when first hearing it, remembered certain parts as "... and stuck itself upon his wrist with secret solitid" and "fighting as heroes from outer space!"
- This troper remembers when that series came out, Neopets did a sponsor game for it (some Memory-esque matching game), with the theme song on a loop. Grahhhhh! Years later, when she finally gave the series a shot, she was glad the theme song for the sequel was purely instrumental.
- "YOU! DIG! GIANT ROBOTS!"

- Love, love, love/ La, la, love/ La, la, love/ Makes the world go round!
- The "Homonyms" song from Robot Chicken. It's a spoof of Schoolhouse Rock, so the Ear Worm affect was probably intentional. Still... must... resist... urge... to... sing in public.
- Speaking of Robot Chicken, what about the ending theme? Sure it's just them saying "bawk" to a little tune, but it's so catchy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mr Bpl Rjbg Sw

- Whoever composed or wrote songs for the Woody Woodpecker cartoons must have had a keen taste in music-a lot of the older ones had a great mix of both instrumental and lyrical songs, from the opening "Crazy" song of Woody's first solo cartoon, Woody Woodpecker (AKA The Cracked Nut) to the song of the short Ski For Two, The Woody Woodpecker Song, and even The Woody Woodpecker Polka. And as for the Barber of Seville short? That belongs in a section all its own.
- All Dogs Go to Heaven 2: It feels so good to be bad!
- Pretty much any and all 80's cartoon intros ever. I still have that goddamn Filmations Ghostbusters song in my head.

- The Tick (animation): Dah-DWEE, Dah-Dilliyah-Dwee-dah!
- And then the 90s kicked off with a song people can't forget even if they want to: Denver, the Last Dinosaur, a show about a dinosaur who'll show you a world you never saw before. From the people who brought you the Voltron and Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs examples above, natch. World Events Productions was notorious for producing songs like this (partially, of course, as a marketing strategy).
- "Supah fighting robot! MEGA MAN!!!"
- In the Dark of the Night, Terror will find her
- This troper finds that, and Journey to the Past stuck in her head a lot. Oh, and Once Upon a December.
- Since this troper has this one AND "learn to do it" AND "Paris holds the key to your heart" too, I guess that means I have the entire sountrack.
- "It's a rumor"...no..."If I can learn to"...oh screw it. Pretty much every song in this thing.
- This troper finds that, and Journey to the Past stuck in her head a lot. Oh, and Once Upon a December.

- Oh yes. This troper's MOTHER sings that one out loud, frequently.
- Let's face it; that was the only good bit from the 1960s series.
- This Troper thinks more of the Ramones version of the 60s theme than any other (even the original song itself). It's one of the biggest Ear Worms he's ever caught. And it's Badass.
- The Simpsons Movie gave us this just-as-catchy variation: "Spider-Pig! Spider-Pig! Does whatever a Spider-Pig does..."
- Spider-Pig is so much of an Ear Worm that it gets into your head without even hearing it. The creators decided to Throw It In because they couldn't stop singing it while working on the movie.

- Keep walking, but you won't knock down our wall. Keep walking, but your plans will surely fall. It's plain to see your brains are very small if you think walking will be knocking down our wall.
- Schoolhouse Rock. If you are only a bill, sitting at conjunction junction, thinking about getting your adverbs from Lolly's, you know what I mean.
- Suffering for Suffrage and Mr. Morton plague this troper frequently.
- This troper had the entire liberetto of Schoolhouse Rock LIVE! playing through her head for months after performing in it.
- This troper's mother frequently breaks out into "Conjunction Junction" at odd intervals. For me, "Interplanet Janet" is a guaranteed Ear Worm.

- When this troper was in 9th grade, back in the 80s, her teacher in Civics class announced one day that the class was assigned to memorize the preamble of the Constitution. After a few beats of us all looking at each other, we all broke into song....

- I find it, quite intersting, a noun's a person, place, or thing...
- Cause sayin' all those nouns over and over can really wear you down...
- In-ter-jections, show ex-cite-ment, or e-mo-tion; they're generally set apart from a sentence by an exclamation point, or by a comma when the feeling's not as strong!" This troper will always end up thinking about this song when he hears the Hallelujah Chorus...
- This Troper can't sing the Hallelujah Chorus. I was once at a choir rehearsal. This was all I could sing. I eventually ended up not singing at all, because all I could sing was the "Hallelujah"s.
- Suffering for Suffrage and Mr. Morton plague this troper frequently.
- Otherwise known as that "Nah nanananaaah" song from Fern Gully, Wilson's Pickett's "Land of a Thousand Dances" is very, very catchy.
- "Yo, the name is Batty/The logic is erratic..."
- "They used and abused me, battered and bruised me"... This troper can't stop listening to it.
- "I rock and I ramble, my brain is scrambled..." If this keeps up, this troper suspects the entire song will be quoted.

I said the bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word...
