Line 7:
** Then there's "See My Vest", Mr. Burns' PETA-unfriendly ripoff of ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]'''s "Be Our Guest".
*** In turn, "Be Our Guest" resembles the titular song from ''Me and My Girl''.
** Lampshaded again during a ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney film)|Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs]]'' parody with a song called "Ho Hi" ("this song's not like any song you know...if Disney sues we'll claim Fair Use").
** Some earlier episodes repeatedly underscored action sequences with a pastiche of the "Axel F" theme from ''[[Beverly Hills Cop]]''. In fact, they had at least two distinct versions of it.
** Sideshow Bob's [[Leitmotif|personal theme music]] is a reworked version of [[Bernard Herrmann]]'s ''[[Cape Fear]]'' theme.
Line 62:
* A dance scene in the ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]'' episode "Jellyfish Jam" uses a techno song called "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCIyguGtFqU Stadium Rave A]" that sounded a LOT like "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KUmAphvThQ Get Ready For This]" ([[Weird Al Effect|A.K.A. "NBA Jam"]]) by 2 Unlimited.
** The Krusty Krab Training Video uses a soundalike for Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger" called "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XovtJrxPjNw Quest for the Best]".
*** Also a piece of music that imitates the ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'' theme on "Bubble Buddy."
**** Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy's official [[Leitmotif]] is [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQDTKPbwxUw The Lineman], an all-too-obvious (and very fitting) JHV of the [[Adam West]] [[Batman]] theme.
***** Joked about it once: A Krusty Krab customer listened to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_0-FwA1f60 a song] and said (perhaps not exact quote) "I hated the REAL version of this song."
