You guys heard about how muthah flippin’ Bill Murray crashed someone’s karaoke party last month, right? If not, you can read about it on The Chive and peep his cute ladyfriend while you’re at it. But Murray crashing a karaoke party should surprise no one because the man has proved over and over again that he has a fondness for musical interludes. So here they be, a collection of my most favorite Murray musical moments.

Lost In Translation
Oh, stow your Scarlett Johansson hatred, Murray was great in this flick and I love his morose take on this number.

Stripes
Did you read in the P. Love today about how Harold Ramis and Bill Murray had a falling out over the tone of Groundhog Day? Here they are in happier times and, look, John Candy! Love!


Saturday Night Live
True story, you can’t stop me from singing “if they should bar wars” every time I hear John Williams’ theme.

Groundhog Day
Oh, stow your Andie MacDowell hatred. No singing here, but some classic Murray charm, no one works a pair of sunglasses like Bill.

Scrooged
Here it is! My very favorite moment! That classic scene at the end of Scrooged when the whole cast bursts into-ha what? What’s that, internet? You don’t have a handy clip that I can post here? But, but, I was led to believe that you had everything I could ever want! I don’t wanna make them click a link! That’s so much work. Really? Siiiigh, fine, put a little love in your heart, Pajibans, by clicking right here.

Joanna Robinson is going to celebrate the close of this second day in February by watching Groundhog Day on Netflix Instant Watch. That’s right kids, it’s there! You’re welcome.

Bill Murray rocks on all kinds of levels, but we take our karaoke very serious in my family. We have rules (a) all non singers must participate in interpretive dance while others sing and (b) no Mic hogs allowed or you have to sing Careless Whisper.

The thought of Bill Murray and harold Ramis having a falling out makes me a sad panda.
:(

They're just so flippin great together!

In other news, Bill Murray just can't get any cooler. He rocks so hard.

Oh, stow your Andie MacDowell hatred.

It's a testament to the greatness of Bill Murray that Groundhog Day is one of my favorite movies even with her in it.

JuiceinLA, those rules are all kinds of awesome.

How can you omit the jail scene in "Ghostbusters"? I'm sure I quote that snippet at LEAST once a week.

Is no one going to mention the Ben Folds reference?
Sheesh! I thought he was supposed to be a Pajiba staple?!

I remember the first time I heard Rockin' The Suburbs and thinking who the hell are Quiet riot? It was only after I looked them up, I found their biggest hit was a cover of Slade's classic Cum On feel The Noize. Hardly comparable in stature to Michael Jackson and Bon Jovi!

Slade, on the other hand, were seven shades of awesome.
