* You want specifics? Oh, where to begin? How about the entirety of the "Love Handel" Episode? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_iY5h9-vT0 "Danny's Story"], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lerfsMgvuMU "You're Fabulous!"], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rK5KTRkHSFc "I Ain't Got Rhythm"] (oh yes you do!), and of course: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afeLdTjSLGg The Concert too.]
** Ain't Got Rhythm is the only song from [[Phineas and Ferb]] apart from the opening that actually won an award, which makes it even more impressive. The [[Title Drop]] in Fabulous is the icing on the cake for me, though, mainly because of the way Phineas says it.

So what do you say, are you back in the band?
'''Bobbi''': Well, maybe if I can find my old leather.
'''Phineas''': Dude! We're getting the band back together! }}
** As if this show needs any more proof that it's filled to the brim with [[Crowning Music of Awesome]], think about this: after composing a spectacular, authentic-sounding, toe-tapping, undeniably catchy original hardcore rock song, they take this said song, and shove it in their credits. Not just that, but they just make it ''less than 30 seconds long''. That's what [[Phineas and Ferb]] did with [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5ZoWx6zIXk Music Makes Us Better], from the band episode. Perhaps [[Your Mileage May Vary|YMMV]] whether the song is really that great or not, but judging from the music on most kids shows nowadays, other shows would kill to have that kind of song as the ''show-stopper'' in the middle of any episode. Amazing.
Line 29:
*** Honestly, when Vincent Martella starts harmonizing and the ''kickass'' horn section drops in, it becomes the best dancing, most toe-tapping thing ''ever''.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrM7jZ9pUAo&fmt=18 "Squirrels in My Pants"]. Best Disney song ever made [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|EVER]].
** And the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKL6WuiTlgk&feature=related extended version] is even better.
*** The video of which also counts a a Crowning Moment of [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]].
* Basically every song that made it into the Cliptastic Countdown.<ref>Technically a Season 2 episode, but listed here because all the songs were from Season 1</ref>
** The Countdown itself ended up being an unintended tribute to Candace. She sings in 7 out of the top 10 songs and was prominently featured in all but one, far more than any other character. The Countdown showcased Ashley Tisdale's superb singing voice, the many different music styles that can be found on the show, and how songs can range from [[Ear Worm|catchy]] to [[Crowning Moment of Funny|hilarious]] to [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|touching]] to [[Tear Jerker|sad]]. And nearly all of it was centered around this one character.
* Even when it's not an original song, the music in this show is still awesome. Watch the episode "Mom's Birthday" and listen hard when the wax presidents melt . Is that song you're hearing in the background [[Jimi Hendrix]]'s version of 'The Star Spangled Banner'? Yes, yes it is. I fucking love this show.
Line 43:
* What? No mention of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jP0j8EITTk Disco Miniature Golfing Queen]? An insanely catchy disco-themed song about miniature golf? ABBA would be proud.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7LQ6Lo6eOU&p=CD3AF8FE6785FA07&index=10 My Chariot] from ''Greece Lightning'' has its merits. What other song has the word 'anachronistic' in it?
* How about the [[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]-esque "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=782tqgEwQiI Missing My Nemesis]" (possibly better remembered as "The Moments When We Didn't Get Along")? The original in Toy Story 2 made this troper cry... this one not only conjures up that feeling, but also manages to be hilarious AT THE SAME TIME. "But now you're doing battle/With a panda from Seattle"? Come on. That's genius, man.
* My favorite is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEVu3gIs8CI&feature=related Chains On Me].
* And let's not forget [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8nl_64r3-0&feature=channel He's A Bully]
* My favorite is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANo4OMoe-bU Queen Of Mars]. Ultra-catchy, probably the best of Ashley Tisdale's singing... and she's just so ''happy''.
* Did everyone forget about the birthday song that [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4JpWYbyfmE Candace wrote for her mom?!?] This troper was crying afterwards it was so beautiful!
Line 74:
* What this troper digs in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbugHkuFsTg My Ride From Outer Space] is Ferb's line: [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|"You're diggin' my ride from outer space."]]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBBU9pHbfxw Mix And Mingle Machine] is one of this troper's personal favorites. It's just so damn ''catchy'', and the way they've got it so practically every line is said by a different person is really cool.
* In "The Secret of Success" we have [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6-sKt8uIlA "We're Talking All Terrain] which is just plain epic.
* Let's not forget [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMqTStO9-Oc&p=CD3AF8FE6785FA07&index=40 What Do It Do?] My #1 song about reverse engineering!
* "Doof Side Of The Moon" has [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjXTwwxMgXw "Floor After Floor"] which is also awesome.
** Martin Olson, a producer for the show, uploaded the original inhouse demo of the song to his SoundCloud account. It's sung by Martin, Jon Colton Barry (a writer for P&F), Dan, and Swampy, [https://web.archive.org/web/20101014222700/http://soundcloud.com/martin-olson/floor-after-floor2-demo and it's just as awesome.]
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UAz-v7RZzF4 "Yodel Odel Obey Me"] from ''Bubble Boys'' became about 40 seconds of pure awesomeness and hilarity. [[Musicalis Interruptus|Too bad Perry had to interrupt it]]...
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llj3pS0E_V0 This] video attempted to make it go uninterrupted.
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nGCRbcU3xU She's Got An Alien Heart]" by Max Modem (Lawrence Fletcher) is so very, very 80's and so very, very awesome.
** Plus points that it's Riff Raff.
* Despite being [[
* And with You Snuck Your Way Right Into My Heart, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvhKQr3RxNM Couldn't Kick My Way Right Into Her Heart].
* How can you not love a song on a children's show ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJYP5Bh7uQU "X-Ray Eyes"] from "No More Bunny Business") which contains the lines
{{quote|
An altogether different visual spectrum.
Sometimes photons behave like a wave,
But they're particles when you reflect 'em. }}
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdkoAHcgwGA "Our movie's better than yours!"] Taking away the usual lightheartedness of Phineas and Ferb to replace it with music of PURE UNDILUTED EPIC! Perfectly capturing the undoubtedly epic tone of both movies, and making it sound for a moment like the two factions are seriously going to go to war.
** Am I the only one who thinks of [[Twilight (
* "Split Personality" gives the awesomeness known as [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARVZVDEQCAo Me, Myself, and I]
* What happens when Perry takes control of Doof? [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDtzUymj3Ic&feature=related Awesome. That's what]
* The official [[Musical Episode]]. Seriously. In the very [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4b0uyVq3R_U first song] (which isn't even 5 whole minutes through the episode) they reference ''[[Cats]]'', ''[[The Phantom of the Opera]]'', ''[[Oklahoma!]]'', ''[[Singin' in
** And of course we have other great songs such as [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qaKcHQVXVZA "You're Going Down"], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76GS956xGY8 Back in Gimmelshtump], and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBny9H8Yd2I&feature=related Carpe Diem].
** Also, Isabella sings a wonderful and adorable musical version of her [[Catch Phrase]], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzsYOkg1YYM Whatcha Doin'].
Line 100:
*** Agreed. Also, those high Gs and B-flats are the highest notes that Phineas has hit yet, and ''damn'', does he hit them well. Hats once again off to Vincent Martella!
* How can we have gotten this far along without mentioning [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SC_LyOxiQ88 Not so Bad a Dad]? Heartwarming, phenomenal singing.
* The most recent episode "Candace gets busted" features the completely epic [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Fg4pthLSgo Intimate Get Together]. Almost makes up for the [[Downer Ending]]. No, it DOES make up for it.
** The above link is a private video ([[Hilarious in Hindsight]], actually.) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq6q77MUf8w here's a public link]
* "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDAfpqRivAo Give Up]", an epic anti-anthem about...well, [[Exactly What It Says
** It's also ''really'' depressing, [[Lyrical Dissonance|despite the upbeat way it's performed]].
* The Beak's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKbQQHazo38 theme song] is completely about how much better he is than you. It is also awesome.
Line 112:
== Season 3 ==
* This troper thought [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QgO3X-VIcSk "Run Candace Run"] was pretty epic.
** Even more epic if you [[Genius Bonus|pick up on]] where it was [[Run Lola Run
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XA9HmS4KdNA The Shark of Danville Harbor] is proof that Phineas and Ferb can even do a ''sea shanty'' and still make it sound good.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlepjyNLZ7k&feature=related "Lunar Taste Sensation"/"Space Ice-Creams"] from Moon Farm. The best part: Baljeet ''arguing with the singer over whether or not he should have brought the marshmallows''.
{{quote|
But we don't have rocky road
It's not that we don't like it -
We left the marshmallows at home (I blame Baljeet)
'''Baljeet''': Hey! }}
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W812nXZU9mE Epic Monster Battle] from Excaliferb, its basically a homage and parody of Heavy Metal like Manowar or Tenacious D.
Line 158:
* The Phineas and Ferb Holiday Favorites CD has some pretty good songs like ''the completely epic'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3O7e-WpGTo Run Rudolph Run sung by Phineas] and [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rI_nzgRFNY 12 Days of Christmas] which gives Doofenshmirtz some ''priceless'' lines.
** Also of note is a completely straight rendition of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RlGi0GHcP4&feature=related The Christmas Song by Vanessa.] Simply beautiful.
** Buford's version of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWnc0veY4fw&feature=player_embedded "Good King Wenceslas"].
** I am ''shocked'' and ''offended'' that someone ''dared'' mention this album without mentioning Isabella's touching and adorable rendition of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cpDvmkjn5E0 Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow]. Tell me you don't think she'd be thinking about [[Oblivious to Love|Phineas]] while she's singing that.
*** Here is the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qKuQR125H9Y&feature=related animated version which is just as adorable].
Line 168:
== Across the 2nd Dimension ==
* [[Phineas and Ferb The Movie: Across
* Though it's been [[What Could Have Been|cut]], [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UWyTdT0ybag "Some Mysterious Force"] qualifies.
* Special mention to many people's favorite, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6QGsIpPVMQw&feature=relmfu Summer (Where Do We Begin?)]. It will stand the test of time not only for Vincent Martella's wonderfully uplifting vocals and the excited yet soothing music, but also as the ''absolute be-all-and-end-all'' representation of summer to a child. Who can go against "Ice cream cones and/Cherry soda/Dripping down your chin"?? That's ''it''. That's ''summer''.
