tell me something boy welcome to Miz Mojo and today we're counting down our picks for the best original jams written to be sung by characters in [Music] movies if you like what you're hearing be sure to check out the full song at the link below looking at the walls around me I find myself everyone weed number 20 nobody like you turning red 2 1 Billy eyh and Phineas oconnell it seems like the pair can do anything including writing a catchy song for a fake boy band in a Pixar movie let C don't cry I'll never not be your ride or die all right one of the major set pieces of turning red is a concert for the boy band fourtown while the credit for their big hit song Nobody Like You goes to them in the movie it can be credited to ish and oconnell IRL boy band music although made specifically to have Commercial Appeal also has a relatively distinct sound this song from fourtown has the beat the lyrics and the vibe that could easily pass for something we'd hear on the radio today I never met nobody like you friend number 19 breathe her smell faking Punk rocks seems like an impossible task but the movie Her smell does a pretty good job of [Music] it the plot centers on a punk band called something she headed up by lead singer Becky who is played by Elizabeth Moss one of the band's hit tracks is called breathe and it was written by Alicia bonano who co-wrote the movie's music with Keegan [Music] DeWit bonano brings authenticity to the song's Vibe giving it a healthy dose of pop punk mixed with grunge even outside of the context of her smell breathe is a straight up Banger this I know this I know number 18 mad about me the cantina song Star Wars Episode 4 A New [Music] Hope when you're working with the likes of John Williams it's best to remember that the king doesn't miss the first Star Wars film is remembered for a lot of things not the least of which is its signature Williams score [Music] the cantina song might not be the first Melody you think about but maybe it should be when Luke Skywalker first walks into the alien Cantina he's greeted by a bar band playing a delightfully juny tune the music feels old timey but slightly off-putting alien even one might [Music] say that eccentricity aside it's delightful to see these extraterrestrial beings going ham on instruments like this number 17 Grow Old With You The Wedding Singer sometimes you just need a little help from your famous friends my lie guy is Glenn they're on this plane no way you guys got to help me right yeah Robbie and Julia first meet while separately preparing for their own weddings but soon realize that they're with the wrong people in the film's Final Act Julia boards a plane to get married unaware that Robbie shares her feelings instead of the traditional race to the airport confession The Wedding Singer opts for a more musical display of romance with the help of fellow first class passenger Billy Idol when your tummy aches build you a fire if the furnace breaks so Robbie's impromptu song has a down-to-earth charm that perfectly matches his relationship with Julia and even makes the plan's other passengers Swoon by the time he's finished Glenn doesn't have a chance grows Old With You number 16 Supernova girl Xenon girl of the 21st century zoom zoom zoom make my heart go boom boom [Music] boom if you started singing along then you are definitely a '90s Disney dis Channel kid Xenon girl of the 21st century is a favorite of the Disney Channel original movie Cannon and features a song that is as catchy as it is [Applause] funa in the movie Supernova girl is performed by pop star protozoa and his band microe the song feels appropriately Galactic but with a pop beat that even humans can get down to [Music] it was written by Christian Rex who also composed music for The Beloved television show smart guy number 15 husvik Eurovision song contest the story of fire Saga even for a movie as silly as this one the moment around this song is surprisingly heartfelt will be disqualified you sing [Music] this 2020 film stars will frell as Lars a man who desperately wishes to win the Eurovision song contest his love interest secret is played by Rachel McAdams and the culminating moment comes at the end when Lars switches out the song they were supposed to perform secret sings husvik a song She Wrote for LS about their Hometown sing through the screams of SE where the whales can't live cuz the gentle people in my home there's a lot that happens in this movie including an incident with a hamster wheel but this moment Rings beautifully true emotionally more than that it sounds like a real Eurovision [Music] [Applause] song she singing icean number 14 Pop Goes My Heart music and [Music] lyrics a romantic comedy about two songwriters you better hope you have some actually good songs music and lyrics does that pretty well but there's one song that stands Above the Rest something in the way I everys pop goes my heart is one of the songs that Hugh Grant's character Alex Fletcher performed as a pop Idol in the 1980s and oh boy does it fit the mold Pop Goes My Heart sounds like the quintessential 8s pop hit like the very best parodies there's an enormous amount of love for the genre folded into the joke but that only makes it even more enjoyable number 13 Falling Slowly once when you write a song that sticks with people the way that Falling Slowly has that really counts for something I don't know but I want you all the once is a 2007 musical indie film that became a huge hit and the music plays a large part in that Glenn Hansard and Marquetta OVA Star as guy and girl two musicians who meet and fall in love in Dublin yeah we go to London and no one will ever find us again no one no we have a brilliant band we'll sell out those places and it' be great HED and your glova also helped write the songs for the film including Falling Slowly this beautiful piano ballad won an Oscar for best original song and continues to break Hearts today fall slowly eyes that know me and I can't go back number 12 Christmas is all around round Love Actually when it comes to washed up rock stars there's not one we love more than Billy Mac fighting for the Christmas number one how's it looking so far very bad indeed blue are out selling me 5 to one but I'm hoping for a late surge as played by the incomparable Bill Nye in the 2003 Christmas classic Love Actually Billy Mack is one of the best parts of the film in particular his new festive hit Christmas is all around is absolutely perfect is all around me around and so the feeling grows the song is a holiday themed version of a song by trogs Called Love is All Around no offense to trogs but we have to say we love the Billy Mac version better so if you really love Christmas come on let it sow the song is supposed to be kind of bad on purpose but honestly that's what makes it work get that tune to the top of the charts number 11 School of Rock School of Rock now let's get out there and melt some faces go get ready Richard linklater has made some of our favorite movies over the past few decades but one of his most entertaining has got to be School of Rock Jack Black absolutely shines as a WABE musician who takes a job as a substitute and ends up teaching his classroom of kids how to jam out the best part of the film comes at the very end when the class plays the song School of Rock at the Battle of the Bands Ro the film is filled with great classic rock tunes but in all honesty this track is one of the most fun in the entire movie Black sings it wonderfully and the kids are all so talented it's almost tough to suspend our disbelief number 10 that Thing You Do That Thing You Do when it comes to fictional one hit wonders you can't get much better than [Music] this that thing you do is a 1996 movie directed by and starring Tom Hanks and follows the rise and fall of a pop band and their biggest song the song which shares a name with the movie was written by Adam slesinger the basist from the band Fountains of Wayne try to for getet you girl but it's just so hard to do you can really tell the guy who had a hand in writing Stacy's mom was involved because that thing you do is one of the best fake movie tunes of all time seriously if the Wonders ever decide they want to get back together we will be first in line to buy [Music] tickets I'm trying to hear it number nine Scotty Doesn't Know Euro trip this vulgar hit from Euro trip has the distinction of being one of the few fictional songs to have surpassed the popularity of its source [Music] SC while the 2004 comedy struggled to match its budget at the box office Scotty Doesn't Know earned its band lustra a spot on the Billboard Hot 100 euro trip seemed to predict the song's Mass Appeal IRL as it's shown to be popular in the world of the film as well hey song sounds familiar in it the song becomes a global sensation even being remixed and sold as a ringtone naturally there is one person who doesn't appreciate the tune's popularity and that's [Music] Scotty number eight standout A Goofy Movie we can assume from his popularity that Powerline has many hit songs in the world of A Goofy Movie but this is the one that Max goofy son chooses to perform for his school and we think he picked [Music] right stand out as its name implies is about standing out from the crowd and making a name for yourself Max definitely does just that when he and his friend PJ hijack their school's assembly for an impromptu performance if I could make you stop and take a look at me instead of just he even catches the eye of his Crush roxan at the end of the movie Max and Goofy get to jam out to eye to eye on stage with Powerline himself but we'll always have a soft spot for this energizing Anthem about making it [Music] big that guy number seven drive it like you stole it sing Street anyone who's ever been in a band will tell you how difficult it is to to make a name for yourself especially in high school in that respect the teens in sing Street are living the dream inci she holds the key to the missing code just a thought of a touch in this 80s set film The titular band writes and performs a number of catchy Tunes inspired by the music of the era slowly rising in popularity our favorite of these songs is drive it like you stole it an empowering rock pop number the bo sing at their school senior [Music] prom the song's lyrics perfectly encapsulate the protagonist's character Arc while the performance allows him and his bandmates to show off their renewed self-confidence in front of their peers it's truly a joy to watch you can't go anywhere you got to grab the wheel and know number six Fever Dog Almost Famous we're here because of the music we are Band-Aids at the end of the day Almost Famous is more about William Miller and the colorful array of groupies he meets than it is about a band nonetheless the band at the center of it all is an undeniably important aspect of the film and it's equally important that their songs are good enough to Warrant their dedicated fan [Music] base SC [Applause] [Music] my fever dog proves that they have what it takes to go toe-to-toe with other 70s rock musicians the song takes inspiration from the real rock bands featured alongside it on the film's Grammy award-winning soundtrack and boasts some shockingly impressive vocals from actor Jason [Applause] Lee number five we are sex bomb Scott Pilgrim versus the world we know what you're thinking and we agree Black Sheep is great hell again [Music] knew unfortunately that showstopping The Clash at demon head performance is technically a cover and honestly it's about time sex bomb got some appreciation too although its members fear their music sucks their introductory song We Are sex bomb Pro the opposite it's just the right energy to introduce the film's insane ensemble cast they follow it up with a performance of garbage truck in the first round of Battle of the Bands which is lyrically abrasive but a ton of fun take you the SES you know you want a [Music] ride oh my God it's both songs strike the perfect balance between good and garage band it's just a shame that garbage truck has to be interrupted by Ramona's first evil X number four equal rights not gay pop star never stop never stopping when Ma lmore and Ryan Lewis released same love it was met with a mixed response while many applauded the song for its message some poked fun at its cornier lyrics strip away the beer underneath it's all the same love about time that we rais the lonely Islands mockumentary film pop star never stop never stopping takes this a step further in it Connor for real sings a song entitled equal rights in which he advocates for gay rights while continuously insisting that he is straight we need equality and for all to see that this is the new way not to gay just seems not gay wrong not gay that no one seems to care Sports he even randomly shouts out stereotypical straight male interests like sports four-wheel drive and golf clubs to hammer home the point it's a hilarious play on the overzealous straight savior type that has emerged in modern pop culture and with a chorus sung by Pink it's an unironic Jam straight number three what dreams are made of the Lizzy Maguire movie when Lizzy graduated from Junior High she never expected to have a runin with a pop star whose former partner looked exactly like her and yet that's exactly what happened throughout her school sponsored trip to Rome Lizzie secretly meets with poo who teaches her how to be a [Music] star he turns out to be a lipsyncing liar but his former partner Isabella arrives at just the right time to save the day she and Lizzy seeing what dreams are made of on an international stage impressing lizz's parents and classmates and absolutely blowing our 8-year-old [Music] Minds ironically as Isabella Hillary Duff is actually lipsyncing the voice of her sister Haley the different voice gives Credence to the idea that these are two separate people not just a brunette [Music] Lizzy number two pretend to be nice Josie and the Pussycats Josie and the cats is the best fake band ever and we promise we weren't brainwashed into saying that this is the best CD ever yeah that want some Gatorade while their meteoric rise to fame could be attributed to their Shady record label we'd like to think that pretend to be nice would have risen through the pop charts regardless of any outside intervention the tune is super fun and a total earworm with lyrics relatable to anyone who's ever had a careless inattentive partner you do you do to me [Music] myign know adore in addition to this chart topper Josie and the Pussycats also performed the equally enjoyable spin around at a global concert that acts as the film's finale but not before getting some much needed assistance from their predecessor dour who sng Backdoor Lover was all the rage before their mysterious plane crash on your up at the Moon you got me crazy got I love you soon I'm your before we continue be sure to subscribe to our Channel and ring the bell to get notified about our

is Born shallow may be a fake song but there's no denying Lady Gaga's very real [Music] talent A Star is Born is the third remake of a 1937 film of the same name but more than sets itself apart with its moving performances and modern take on the music industry on an inworld episode of Saturday Night Live Gaga's character Ally performs the catchy why did you do that why did you do [Music] it's not bad but it's a far cry from alie's authentic self which is best showcased in her performance of shallow with Jack the song is a powerful reflection on the dangers of stardom just as relevant to our real world as it is the fictional world of Ally and [Music] Jack where R is SH now if we missed any of your favorite original movie tunes let us know in the comments [Music] below do you agree with our pics let us know in the comments and hey if you're a fan of the song playing right now be sure to check out the music video for it right [Music] here I find myself in an EMP
