WORST LBT Song Ever!

[pokeplayer984]

Flip flap and fly.  It was so lame and horrible.  The lyrics sounded like they were put together in five minutes and all of the voices sucked really bad.  Everyone sounded like they had a cold!  I can no longer watch it because it makes me doubt my loyalty to lbt.  I think they just put this song in there because they needed another one.  The other two songs in lbt 12 were great.  In fact "things change" was my absolute favorite of all the lbt songs.

I think more than 500 people in the world disagree with you.  After all, I've got nearly 800 views, none of which was my assistance, on my YouTube vid of Flip, Flap and Fly.  How long has it been around? A little more than 20 days.  The other two only have about half as much.  Less than 400.

One thing that makes Flip, Flap and Fly unique from all the other LBT songs is that they have different charcters singing completely different lines near the end at the same time.  Until now, the music writers never attempted that.  It was something rather complex to put together, which is why I would like to see us of the Gang of Five Community try it at some point.  It wouldn't be all that simple, that's for sure.

Of course, you're entitled to your own opinion.  I just felt like pointing something out.

In all honesty my personal favorite song in LBT would be "If we hold on together".....but my most HATED song EVER is.....(well I've got two or three, so plz hang in with me!

*Drumroll*.......  :^.^:

"Opps-epps", "I feel so happy" (they really just killed it in the series), and the remake of "Adventuring" in the TV series

BTW, isn't it funny how when they start singing.....take Flip,Flap,FLy as an example....

Petrie starts by singing to himself, and about half way thorough EVERYONE just sorta falls into tune?
maybe it's just me.....but I find that REALLY annoying....

Lets see...off the top of my head, the songs I dislike;

*I never liked "Kids Like Us" for some reason. I think I just hated the intro.
*"It Takes All Sorts" I like better than I used to, but Ali going off key fairly early on always put me off it before it really started.
*"Creepy Crawlies" was weak, and I think "Girls And Dads" is my least favourite. That final note irks me beyond reason.

I figure The Lesson's the worst, but I haven't heard that song enough to really say as much.

And although the rest of these songs were fine, the choruses in "Peaceful Valley" and "Always There" sounded too garbled for me. I generally think 5, 6 & 12 had the best songs of the sequels. 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, & 10 had good songs, and 8, 11 and 13 not as much (actually, I haven't seen 13 in a while, but I seem to remember humming along to that Yellow Belly Beat song).

[DarkHououmon]

I'll probably say The Legend Of The Lone Dinosaur because of the fact it's country-style I think(I hate country save for very few songs in this genre) and because it made me start to lose interest in the songs years ago. I had a hard time listening to it for the first time, and I never listened to it after the first time. And after that, I started becoming less and less interested in the songs in general.

[LBTFan13]

I'm just going to put down a list of the song from each movie I disliked, just for the heck of it.

LBT: None - because the only song in it is the best song in the LBT franchise

LBT II: Eggs - I'm sorry, but even though I really enjoy Ozzy and Strut as characters, that song was a little pointless to me. Yes, I realize that it was meant to show why Ozzy has to have eggs, but I just didn't like the tune. Also, I didn't really like how he kept insulting Strut throughout the song. Yes, it's not the first or last time, but I just really didn't like it that much.

LBT III: Tough and When You're Big - I didn't like either of these songs. When You're Big had a bad tune, the lyrics were kind of lame, and Mutt and Nod didn't really make good back up singers. Also, I applaud Threehorn getting a song, but Tough was also kind of stupid. To me, it came off as nothing more than a boost for his ego.

On a side note, I actually really liked Kids Like Us. Scott McAfee had a really nice singing voice, and it was a heck of a lot better than the other two.

LBT IV: Who Needs You? - Really? This is the song that ruined villain songs for me. It's not even really a song. The majority of the time they are speaking the lyrics, and the lyrics are REALLY lame.

I also really liked It Takes All Sorts. Sure Ali is not the best singer, but still the message is strong, and it was the last song with the voices of Littlefoot, Cera, and Ducky, and they all did a really nice job. I also really loved Grandma's Lullaby. I was very happy she got a song, and it was beautiful.

LBT V: Big Water - I don't really hate the song, but I don't like it as much as the other two songs. The tune is kind of catchy, the cast did a nice job singing it, but nowhere near as good as Always There. Also, it wasn't as fun and playful as Friends for Dinner, but then again that's because the song was meant to display their fears.

LBT VI: Bad Luck - I'm sorry, but not even Spike's awesome singing could save this. The song was completely pointless. I mean, sure Lone Dinosaur was kind of dumb, but at least it was telling a legend. This was just saying, "Oh this is bad luck, and that is bad luck," WE GOT IT!

LBT VII: None - All three songs I enjoyed. Sure maybe Good Inside was not the best, but it was still good. Pterano's song saved the villain songs for me. Who knew Michael York could sing?

LBT VIII: The Lesson - Pretty much the same reasons as everybody else. I was originally going to say Mad, but that song has some pretty funny moments in it despite the mediocre tune. The Lesson was just terrible.

LBT IX: Big Water - The first time a song was redone in a sequel, and it was nowhere near as good as before. Why were they singing it like they were happy? Last time they were scared to death of it. It just didn't sound good at all.

LBT X: None - I enjoyed these songs as well. Adventuring was only good in this movie. The dad song was nice also, even though maybe this Littlefoot's voice was not the best singing voice. It was nice that he was finally reflecting on finding his dad. Bestest Friends is my second favorite song in the franchise. It is so sweet yet sad at the same time, because you didn't know what Littlefoot was going to do at the time.

LBT XI: Creepy Crawlies: You wonder why the adults never got songs? This is why. Not counting Grandma's Lullaby in IV, the adults just don't have good singing voices, and the tune was terrible! Now granted, Grandpa Longneck in If Only was tolerable.

LBT XII: Flip, Flap, Fly - Again, for the same reasons as everybody else. The cameos were I guess kind of nice, but at the same time, it was like "Why were they there?". I wasn't that fond of One of a Kind either, but it wasn't as bad as this.

LBT XIII: Yellowbelly Song and Say So - I think these two songs tie with the two I chose for LBT III as the worst songs of the sequels. The Yellowbelly Song was completely pointless, the dance looked stupid, and just everybody's voices didn't sound that good. Say So was just plain annoying, and the lyrics were a bit stupid in parts. Thank god How Do You Know saved the songs from being completely disgraceful.

TV Series: Oops Eeps - Now there are A LOT of songs from the TV series that I don't like, but this one takes the cake. The lyrics were flat out chlidish, the characters dancing to it looked stupid, the tune was god annoying, and it just left me with the thought of why the heck was it ever written in the first place.

Anyway, that's what I thought of the songs from each movie. I know it's a lot, but I couldn't bash on one song without bashing all of them.

[DarkHououmon]

LBT IV: Who Needs You? - Really? This is the song that ruined villain songs for me. It's not even really a song. The majority of the time they are speaking the lyrics, and the lyrics are REALLY lame.

"Who Needs You" is probably the only sequel song left that I sort of, kind of, like and don't mind hearing. It was my favorite song from LBTIV and was the one I would listen to the most often. It had a somewhat catchy beat to it. I also liked how the song gave character to these two meat-eaters, probably even more character than Chomper from the 2nd movie. The song also showed how unique these two villains were compared to Ozzy and Strut or Hyp, Nod, and Mutt (if you count them as villains). These two characters hate each other's guts and they aren't afraid to show it. In the song they really make this point clear. But by the end of it, they go back to working together because they knew they'd need each other to get food.

I could even go as far as say I feel this song is the best sequel song, considering that it's the only one left out of all the songs I don't mind hearing nowadays. I don't feel it's as bad as what some people make it out to be.

[Ptyra]

Pterano's song saved the villain songs for me. Who knew Michael York could sing?

Probably since he was a lead character who was a singer   . 'Bout 31 years prior   ! And he almost had a song in Great Expectations

[LBTDiclonius]

For me, it would have to be most of the tv series songs but I feel so happy one got really annoying. But the episode the lonely journey where the great valley celebrates the great giving and chomper feels left out so he decides to find sharpteeth and teaches them how to be friends. (bad idea chomper  <_<) There's this I feel so happy version and there's this one note where chomper is tone deaf! He sang it and I was like, What!?!?!?! :blink:. Gosh they get annoying real fast.

[Saft]

I'm glad that this has been bumped up recently as I'm abit hesitant to bump posts...
However, what my impression of LBT songs are is that there are some really good songs with actual meanings in them such as 'Bestest friends'', 'Always there'', 'No one has to be alone' and 'If we hold on together' but there are some that are just plain awful and pointless as though the song writers couldn't think up inspiring lyrics.  Although I dislike Ali and her singing (hurts ears) I do think that the song does display an actual meaning in the lyrics.   However, LBT songs I don't like are Who needs you, The Lone dinosaur and Big Water.

[Allicloud]

Well, in the reviews I do of the series, the songs play a major part in the critique, so I'll do my best:

2: One Of Us Now. It just doesn't work that well for me. The kids are singing like kids, rather tan like singers (As they do in later films), and the sequence that goes with it is a bit dumb too. Just the bits of them all walking round in circles. I never understood that...

3: Kids Like Us. After the Big-band-style When You're Big, and the 80s-rock-esque Standing Tough, this song just felt a bit weak. The other 2 songs were fun, and sound good on their own, as well as being parts of a movie. But this one just didn't work well for me. Pity though, because I really liked this film.

4 and 5 I haven't seen properly, so I can't comment. But from what I recall, Friends For Dinner was a pretty rotten song.

6: Bad Luck. This one was just stupid.  Lone Dinosaur, personally, I think had a good tune and a good mood to it, and On Your Own was a highlight of the film, but this one. Sorry Spike, but even your scat-singing couldn't save this one!

7: Good Inside. Such a shame, because the other 2 songs were so good in this film! It just seemed like a weak entry. I personally like the songs with strength and feeling, and they could have easily made the point of this song with a speech of some sort and moved on.

8: This film actually holds the honour of being the only film where I could sit through every song. Mad Song was just brilliantly done. Family had just an undeniable charm to it, and I actually quite liked The Lesson.

9: Imaginary Friend. Partly because Chanson D'ennui was a fun song, and No One Has To be Alone was beautiful, and this song just seemed completely silly, and was very close to being, as Nostalgia Critic would put it, a Big Lipped Alligator Moment (da-daaaa!), since the imaginary friend has no bearing on the plot, the sequence is completely over the top and bizarre to look at, and when it finishes, nobody ever mentions it again, apart from Petrie humming it to himself as he flies along. The other reason being that I hate reggae.

It's a real shame, since otherwise, the songs in this film were great, and this film is probably one of my top LBT sequels.

10: I haven't heard enough of them to critique them yet. I've only heard Adventuring all the way through, and I kinda liked it. Only real thing I criticise about this song is Littlefoot's singing voice, which is kinda flat at times.

11: Girls and Dads. This one was completely out of place, especially since it had freaking backup singers that apppear out of nowhere and just randomly join in! But that's my only real complaint, since the rest of the song was pretty good (Voices, instruments, melody, animation, etc)

12: Funnily enough, Flip Flap and Fly actually remains as one of my top LBT songs, just because it's a fun sequence and a pretty catchy song. Otherwise, the song sin this one were pretty boring.

13: Still haven't seen it, and never intend to.


I like to keep a relatively open mind about these songs. It's kinda funy, because through these songs, I've gotten into 80's hair-metal, swing Jazz, some country, and I like power-ballads even more. Does anyone else find themselves imagining No One Has To Be Alone as a Manowar-style power-ballad? I know I do. All choirs, organs, a big guitar solo in the middle, it'd be awesome...

[Jasper]

All the songs in general didn't bother me one bit, but this did!


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fHb8iRSbw8A

Probably the worst song I've heard for any show or movie and also number four for the worst song I've heard in the history of music.

[aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato)]

Do other languages count? Because whoever they found to sing for Petrie in Dutch LBT4 has the worst conceivable singing voice in the world.

[It Takes All Sorts (Dutch)

[aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato)]

Sorry, double post. I guess I'll edit this one to add that "The Lesson" was my least favorite music-wise, "Oops-Eeps" was my least favorite lyric-wise, and runner up in both categories is "Imaginary Friend."

[Serris]

Who needs you from LBT IV was horrendous. Icthy and Dil were horrible singers and the lyrics made no sense.

Imaginary Friends made no sense in context and Petrie sound rather bad in that song.

[Allicloud]

Now that I've seen every movie but the last one, analysed them, and forced myself to sit through all the songs, I feel a revision of the list is in order:


3: Kids Like Us. See my previous entry, plus: It's not terrible, but compared with the other 2 songs, it seems weak.

4: It Takes All Sorts. The songs in this one were odd, in that they all sounded like they were taken from a broadway musical. Grandma's Lullaby was a nice little number, and being a huge fan of villain songs, I loved Who Needs You. I would have also liked It Takes All Sorts, if it weren't for Ali's singing voice. Really off key and given the nature of the song, a bit too loud. So if they gave her a different singer, it would have been a perfect 3 in terms of songs.

5: Friends For Dinner. Similar to the above post, Chomper's singing voice really let this one down. Personally I really didn't like Chomper's voice actor in this movie. He was just so bland and flat. The song probably should have also been a bit faster. Otherwise, the songs stand out as some of the best yet.

6: None. After listening through Bad Luck again, I realised that while it may be stupid and (like all the songs in this film) not really do anything for the plot, it was really damn catchy. I've recently gained a love for Big-Band jazz, so I was sold from the very first "BA DA, BA DA, BA DA, BA...". And while Spike's scat-singing was a big weak at the beginning, by the end it was like he had turned into Satchmo.

7: Good Inside. Hasn't really changed since my last post. Other songs stood out as greats, this one just sounded generic and weak.


8: Still none.

9: Imaginary Friend. No change since my original post, except I've noticed that one of the imaginary friends kinda looks like King Gator...


10: Finally saw this one, and it has quickly risen to become my favourite sequel. One reason being the songs. Adventuring was pretty good fun, Me and My Dad wasn't bad, and Bestest Friends makes me cry every time I hear it. If I had to choose my least fav, it would probably be Me and My Dad. Adventuring was a classic, and Bestest Friends was just plain beautiful. so the middle song just couldn't hold a candle to the others.

11: None. After watching it a few times, I realised how Girls and dads was actually a pretty well done song. Granted it seems a bit silly, but it at least has a place in the plot, and is a pretty fun song, along with both the other songs. If it weren't for its mundane plot (seriouyly, we only see the Mysterious Beyond for about 30 seconds in this!), this would be a really good movie.


12: I'd say probably One of A Kind. Things Change was probably Cera's crowning moment of the whole series (aside from the bits where for no reason, her eyes turn electric blue) Flip Flap and Fly was awesome. One of a Kind was pretty bad; It's got a pretty lame chorus, bad message, and Petrie singing about an octave too high.

13: Still haven't seen it, and never intend to.

[EggStealerGirl]

While I can understand of why people have a strong dislike towards the song, "Eggs", at least it had a point. I just feel that some of the LBT songs had no point at all...

Despite their egg puns not exactly being all that funny, it helped give the audience a better understanding of Ozzy and Strut's character.

I find the tune to it to be rather catchy, and I'm not ashamed to admit that I like that song...

Some of the other LBT songs that I generally enjoy are "If We Hold On Together", "Very Important Creature", and "Always There."

As far as of any of the LBT songs that I currently dislike would be "Big Water." I'm sorry, the song was just really weird when I first listened to it...

[Kron the Iguanadon]

Where to begin?

Friends for dinner was stupid with the bad tune and terrible singing, which prevented it from being all that much fun; the lyrics were disturbing, and not in the fun-scary way they were for "Big Water"; the "telephone conversation" shot of the characters, followed by Chomper appearing in a bubble at the bottom of the screen, was so lame...it was just...cheesy and lame.

Chanson D'Ennui: First of all why is it even called that?! Secondly, while the tune was nice, it didn't go well with the godawful animation. More "telephone convo." shots, more stupid "character in bubble" shots...and it could all have been summed up in the 2 last words we get: "I'm bored!"

Imaginary Friend: DON'T GET ME STARTED!!!!!

Big Water (in LBT 9):

LBT IX: Big Water - The first time a song was redone in a sequel, and it was nowhere near as good as before. Why were they singing it like they were happy? Last time they were scared to death of it. It just didn't sound good at all.

 You said it! I mean, ruin a fantastic song?! This song was originally meant to display their FEARS, not make them feel better! AGGH!

The Lesson: What can I say? Dull, overlong, but at least endurable.

The Lone Dinosaur: Awful story visuals, none of it true,   having those stupid, god awful, sickily cute "nieces" of cera's around (who I hope are gone for GOOD!), and why the hell are they giving us a country song?!

Adventuring: Lots of lame visuals, undoubtedly trying to match the success of the original "Big Water"---AND FAILING!

Flip flap fly: Bad singing from those stupid idiot flyer judges. Seriously I wanna kill them in midair

Yellow Belly Bounce: I haven't even seen it and I know how bad this one is!!

Grandma's lullaby: God, as a kid i loved movie 4 but could not stand this song. Dull, boring, and she looked so weird at the end cause she was both crying and smiling weirdly. But I've since discovered a lot of the songs i mentioned above so this one is great it comparision. She sounds a little young for a grandma, though.

Okay, that's over![/QUOTE]

BT V: Big Water - I don't really hate the song, but I don't like it as much as the other two songs. The tune is kind of catchy, the cast did a nice job singing it, but nowhere near as good as Always There. Also, it wasn't as fun and playful as Friends for Dinner, but then again that's because the song was meant to display their fears.

Well, so was Friends for dinner, but whereas Big Water did a good job, Friends for dinner did it in a sickening way by making it funny. It was really fun and playful in a sort of sickening way. Ugh.

LBT VI: Bad Luck - I'm sorry, but not even Spike's awesome singing could save this. The song was completely pointless. I mean, sure Lone Dinosaur was kind of dumb, but at least it was telling a legend. This was just saying, "Oh this is bad luck, and that is bad luck," WE GOT IT!

Sure, Bad Luck may have been kind of pointless, but so was "Lone dinosaur"...the story it tells is NOT TRUE

[Dalekdino]

For me it has to be the mad song from LBT 8. I mean no song that starts with "When your tummy feels all sticky and hot like it's filled with bubbly goo." is going to be good, I do love Cera but that song of hers was bloody awful!
In fact that song is one of the reasons the 8th film is my 2nd most hated squeal.

I also HATE Big Water, I remember very clearly seeing the 5th film for the first time and hating that song right away what with their silly idea of what under the big water...
I also don't like Friends for dinner what with it's silly modern day food references. I mean how the flying hell would dinosaurs know what soup, stew, pie and liver of duck is!?

[Ducky123]

There is no such thing as THE worst LBT song. All of them (those from the movies at least) are really good or at least okay. But it is also obvious that not all songs of the Tv-series are that great I couldn't name a particular one right now but there are some (and no, Oops-Eeps is not among those that are really bad)
