Twitter Users Ponder Their Favorite Original Songs From Shows and Movies

I have to say right off the bat that this is one of the funniest social media roundups I’ve ever done, at least to me. Not necessarily because the material itself is hilarious, but simply because the vast, vast majority of the responses to the initiating prompt I have simply never even heard of, let alone seen! I didn’t think it was gonna be that way when I saw the prompt:

what’s your fav original song from a show or movie ?

I had a fair few things come to mind straight away! A number of Simpsons tunes, I’m sure there was something from Community there, and, of course, the king of them all that’s featured in the header photo above. But the responses that came up? I can’t remember the last time I drew as many blanks as the ones from this:

determinate from lemonade mouth omg

The entire Cheetah Girls (1 and) 2 discography is untouchable. Certified Gold.

This fake group was so good that they became real and sold out tours worldwide. Women's empowerment, diversity, vocals, like they had it ALL. pic.twitter.com/VCiBCVXiDl

The Climb always makes me emotional no matter how many times I hear it. I loveddd Hannah Montana & Miley when I was little and I still do—this is probably my favorite song from her, only rivaled by Butterfly Fly Away which also makes me cry every time I hear it pic.twitter.com/Gj7HlrpZoK
