Best song by a fictional band?

[noblegiraffe]

I nominate "Backdoor Lover" by DuJour from Josie and the Pussycats.

Very funny, totally inappropriate, and yet insanely catchy.

Yes, he goths up very well 😍

Love the bratz rock angel's CD.

Daughter was mad on the dolls etc, years ago.
When she sorted through her CDs one year I "tactically relocated" it. DD then discovered it and "tactically relocated" back.
We've been doing this for over 10 years (DD also "tactically relocates" my linkin park and 80's CD's). Step dad and soon to be son in law set up a shared Spotify account for us one year - DD and I were not impressed!🤣🤣🤣

Day man... Fighter of the nightman!

Albi the Racist Dragon by the Conchords
Volcano Man by Fire Saga
Big Bottom by Spinal Tap

This is what I was coming to say. Love some Adam Pascal ❤️

Gem, Gem is outrageous ooooo
Gem, Gem is adventure oooooo
Glamour and glitter, fashion and fame!

We are the Misfits, our songs are better
The Misfits, the Misfits, and we're gonna get her!

Or words to that effect!

Good Behaviour by the Little Ladies

I like "Bitch School" by Spinal Tap. A raucous ditty about puppy training, it celebrates the enduring love of the British people for their pets.

Truly outrageous. I loved that cartoon!

Pop goes my heart by PoP!
from Music and Lyrics (with Hugh Grant)

This is a contender...

But this is the winner. You'll be singing this all day after listening to it...

I love Rock Star with Mark Wahlberg- Steel Dragon songs are absolutely awesome!!!!

Carol Brown by Flight of the Conchords

Your links don't work, @Imnotswallowingthat

Talk of cartoons reminded me of this absolute banger:

The Night Begins to Shine by BER from Teen Titans. (Actually Fallout Boy)

Impossible not to rock out to.

Ja Ja Ding Dong, if Fire Saga counts as a band rather than a duo?

Has to be Hugh gyrating

I assumed you meant his Love Actually dance.

What the hell have I just watched and why haven't I seen it before?!

Theres a brilliant little Brit/Indie film written by Willie Russell called Dancing thru the dark. Its about a fictional band on the brink of stardom in the early 90s who go back to their home town in Liverpool where the lead singer ( Colm O'Neil) bumps into his ex who broke his heart- but shes on her hen night. At the gig he sees her and sings the song he wrote for her( Dancing thru the dark). Its as cheesy as the day is long, but all the music is really good !

Does anyone remember Smurfs Go Pop!

Or is it just me? 😂

Absolute favourite. This is a frequent ear worm even though I only repeat that line over and over.

YEEEEEESS

I genuinely love that song. And film.

Everytime by Lincoln Hawk in Gossip Girl

@noblegiraffe I clicked on this thread to say 'Backdoor Lover' thinking "oh it's a bit obscure - I expect no one has heard of it"
😂😂😂

Not really fictional (as it's Elbow), but this never fails to make me laugh:
