Favourite songs from Futurama

[on:]

Hi, I don't know if it has been done before, but I decided to take a poll of the best songs from Futurama (songs sung by the characters, not 'soundtrack' music). I don't know the official names of the songs, so I also included the episode they're from. I'm sure I've missed some, so if your favourite isn't there then feel free to vote for 'other' and post the name of it.

It's a tough call between 'Robot Hell' and 'The Elves Are Back To Work', but there is simply no beating 'Robot Hell'.

[Reply #2 on:]

Yeah? I'd go either 'The Elves Are Back To Work' or 'Santa Clause is Gunning you Down', but I did like 'Robot Hell'.

[Reply #3 on:]

'Elves are back to work' is my personal fav "there's a toy lodged in my brain" :P

[Reply #4 on:]

Bender's song from "The Series has landed"

Also, welcome to PEEL, MasterZool.

[Reply #5 on:]

The robot hell one.

[Reply #6 on:]

I agree, twas a catchy little number.

[Reply #7 on:]

My broken friend was great.

I hate the Robot Hell Song, i never watch that episode.

[Reply #8 on:]

I love My Broken Friend. 

[Reply #9 on:]

robot hell was too upbeat and stuff, like some queer broadway musical. sorry, i just saw west side story, hope you can understand.

also, the Xmas elves song is funnier,

we are free and fairly sober
with so many toys to build
the machines are kinda tricky
probalbly someone will be killed
...bla...bla...bla
there's a toy lodged in my brain.

I like in anthology of interest when big bender flys through space, I think its a deep purple song.

[Reply #11 on:]

It's "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath.

[Reply #12 on:]

I cannot believe Hermes' "Bureaucrat Song" is not on the list.  THIS POLL IS INVALID UNTIL IT IS ADDED.  (Hey, that rhymes.)

They said I probably shouldn't be a surgeon
They pooh-poohed my electric frankfurter
They said I probably shouldn't fly with just one eye
I am Bender please insert girder


(Edit: damn, had a lyric wrong.  Been too long since I saw the ep.  I'll watch it twice as penance.)

[Reply #13 on:]

Vote for "Bureaucrat Song" here.

And I voted for the "The Elves Are Back To Work Today" song. Funniest song yet on Futurama.

"There's a toy lodged in my brain!"

Yes, but you see, here is not here.  The Bureaucrat Song needs be in every Futurama song poll.  It's just that good.

[Reply #15 on:]

I love the Robot Hell song, and always have. But I also love the New Justice Team song, and since that didn't have any votes, I voted for that 

[Reply #16 on:]

Robot Hell is a little piece of heaven!!
(bad pun intended)

If there is a way to add it then I will, but as far as I know there isn't   

[Reply #18 on:]

i had to go for the new justice team 

[Reply #19 on:]

Hermes' song. it was seriously funnn-kay.

[Reply #20 on:]

"Captain Yesterday is fast, even though he's from the past."

[Reply #21 on:]

'My broken friend' 

[Reply #22 on:]

You forgot "Born to be a Bureaucrat (When Push Comes to Shove" from HHRHGB. And that acronym has absolutely nothing to do with Mr. Huge Gelatinous Blob.

Vote: Other for "Born to be a Bureaucrat"

[Reply #23 on:]

Anyone who wants to vote for Hermes' song, vote other and post your vote here.

[Reply #24 on:]

The Elves Are Back To Work, by far. 

[Reply #25 on:]

Already voted but thought of Zoidberg's song...

"When I was two there was a tidal wave..."

[Reply #26 on:]

It was tough to choose between "Robot hell" and "The new justice team" but Robot Hell had already too many votes... so I'm picking The new jsutice team

"Super King, Cloverella and... all the rest"

[Reply #27 on:]

robot hell is the best i know all the words to it!!!

[Reply #28 on:]

The Robot Hell song is just great. I don't think that the lyrics are amazingly funny (apart from "please stop sinning while I'm singing" ), but it's got a damn catchy tune and Dan's voice for Beelzebot is just so funny singing.

[Reply #29 on:]

I go for the Robot Hell song definitly. Know all the words and everything 
The new justice team song, in the middle of the ep, is also great. Funny lyrics.

[Reply #30 on:]

Robot Hell, all the way.

My favorite pop song used in Futurama would definitely be "Don't You Forget About Me" from "Luck of the Fryrish."

Which episode was that from?

[Reply #32 on:]

It's from 'How Hermes Requisitioned His Grove', at the very end a sort of joke.

[Reply #33 on:]

I just watched that ep again, now I know the one you're talking about. Classic Zoidberg!

[Reply #34 on:]

Wooo go Zoidberg!

[Reply #35 on:]

No Popplers Jingle?

[Reply #36 on:]

The Popplers jingle is great.  I just wish it was longer.  Something along the lines of early Rush.  You just can't have too much of a good thing.

[Reply #39 on:]

I liked the bureaucrat song in "How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back" I just watched that episode on DVD and now I can't get it out of my head. The robot hell one is also rather good.
