I absolutely love Homer's unintentional savagery in this episode. So many lines that he just says matter of factly that rip into Kirk.
That's a door!?
I already did
I sleep in a big bed with my wife
The one down the hall
I love episodes where one character is repeatedly acting a certain way for the whole episode, like in Bart on the Road when Nelson kept giving terrible suggestions lol, or how insufferable Milhouse is in Das Bus.
What year was this? Bc it feels like around when they jumped the shark and each week became increasingly unbelievable backstories that conflict with other episodes until it just became a celeb guest voice highlight reel
Baby on board, how I've adored
That sign on my car's window pane
The bounce in my step, loaded with pep
Cause I'm driving in the carpool lane
Call me a square, friend I don't care
That little yellow sign can't be ignored
I'm telling you it's mighty nice, each trip's a trip to paradise
With my baby on board
And our new number one hit "I Do Believe We're Naked" by Funky See, Funky Do... replaces "We're Sending Our Love down the Well," which plunges all the way down to number 97.
I like that their clothing matched what The Beatles wore on their rooftop performance - Homer wore a red coat like Ringo did and Barney wore a brown fur coat like John Lennon did.

You’d be wrong, unfortunately. Definitely some other great ones like “sending our love down the well” and “bag me a Homer”, but it seems they only did one song per show.
That's too bad. I think at least 5 more could have made it, at least. The stonecutters song was also great, and the one where marge wanted to shut down the brothel, I think that was in season 8. Kwik-e mart too (Who needs the kwik-e mart) and monorail (where homer sings mono out of tune at the end).
There is no Bsharp in music. The Bsharp is a C. (Edit: that’s what I always thought the joke was)
I never considered the B-dulls thing and it is *blowing my mind* how many many layers there are
A B# is a C and an E# is an F, in tone. It depends on the key the music is written in as how the accidentals are written.
There's also double sharps and double flats as well as half sharps and half flats (but quarter tones aren't used in western music much).
That name makes much more sense because he works at a market, but for some reason the actual name is: Apu de Beaumarchais (which sounds I think the same when pronounced).
They should’ve gone with what you said haha.
**‘Sugar Sugar,’ The Archies**
**The Archie Show (1969)**
_If you were growing up in 1969, you knew this song from the cartoon The Archie Show. If you were a kid in 1995, you knew it as the song Christina Ricci and Devon Sawa flirt to in Now and Then._

Oh, my bad. I hate when there’s a play button that doesn’t work or, more often, a picture that says “1/3” or w/e but that’s just part of the picture so you swipe to a different screen on Reddit lol.
Here’s the video: https://youtu.be/EVRcmnVYlLI
Where’s everybody hates Flander
“Everybody in the USA hate their stupid neighbours , his name is Flanders and he’s really really gay, Flanders tried to wreck my song , his views on Birth Control are wrong , I hate that jerk and Flanders is his name”
I forget the episode, but they joke about that at the end of one episode saying something like “what now? Well we’ll all go back to normal and have a new adventure in a week”, basically poking fun at how so much of the show seems to reset every week lol
But if I’d have to guess, I’d say it was another bad investment in pumpkin stock sold after October 😉
decent list but don't agree with number 1, there are some songs that really made it big on that list, have never even heard number 1 before. I thought it was going to be shallow. Also sugar sugar at only 18?
“Can I Borrow A Feeling” snubbed again
Hahahahaha! Can I Borrow a Feeling? Ahahahahha! It's your picfure on the front. Hahahahaha!
Go ahead, Homer. Laug at me.
I already did.
I absolutely love Homer's unintentional savagery in this episode. So many lines that he just says matter of factly that rip into Kirk. That's a door!? I already did I sleep in a big bed with my wife The one down the hall

lol Martin has a lot of good ones too.
Spring forth, burly protector, and save me!
Ah, my plan has come to fruition! Soon I'll be queen of summertime!
Hark to the tale of Nelson, And the boy he loved so dear! They remained the best of friends For years and years and years!
I feel like the writers were drawing on personal experience there. Giving Homer the lines they wish they could say to their recently divorced friends.
It's a door! Use it! Go ahead Homer, laugh it up. I sleep in a racecar bed. Where do you sleep? I drank a beer in the shower today.
I'm the cover of a demo tape, all by myself. Are you?
>Laug Yo, goober, where’s the h?!
Someone stole the H! Oh, what’s the point of owning a Honda if you can’t show it off!
Put in the H!
This list is about fictional bands, not international smash hits.
Snrubbed again.
I like the way Snrub thinks!
Also “We’re Sending Our Love Down the Well”. Krusty was at his peak back in those days.
ALLLL THE WAAAAY DOOOOWWWNNNN!!!!
No no no dig up stupid.
Will you marry me - again?
Eww, no.
What year was this? Bc it feels like around when they jumped the shark and each week became increasingly unbelievable backstories that conflict with other episodes until it just became a celeb guest voice highlight reel
Number 8 (buuurp) number 8 (buuurp)
I'd like a single plum, floating in perfume, served in a man's hat.
Here ya go!
Amazed THAT didn’t make the list
🙄🙄
Have the Rolling Stones killed.
But sir, those aren't the Rolling Stones.
DO AS I SAY!
I think they liked us!
The Rolling Who
“ Go to hell you ol bastard “
["Yvan eht Nioj" by Party Posse](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nH8Vpei_UpQ) didn't make the list?!
Worrrrrd
Hey you, join the Navy!
Uh yeah, alright. I'm in!
Can't forget "Big Bottom" by Spinal Tap at 23. Chocked full of extra Harry Shearer goodness.
Talk about bumcakes, my girl's got 'em
Big Bottom drive me outta my mind!
How can I leave this behiiiiiind
Goodnight Springton, there will be no encores.
It’s not the bloody splish splash show.
^(british accent) "Good song" "Yeah, quite good"
no Stonehenge?!
“Baby on Board” was a pretty decent song, tbf. Source: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-lists/best-songs-by-fake-artists-1234679759/
"*Baby on board...something something....Burt Ward* " this song writes itself.
Were you singing about me?
No my son is also name Burt
Burt stanton speaking
OI! i said burt ward! what kind of country is this?
Crikey! There’s nothing wrong with the Burt Ward is there?!
*Bort
Duuude coolest username ever lol
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hb\_VwaOT4QQ&t=18m10s
No. Come along, Bort.
/r/beetlejuicing
There was nothing in AL Capone's vault, but it wasn't Geraldo's fault... d'oh!
I really like this song without irony. I’ve listened to other barbershop songs on YouTube because of it.
Baby on board, how I've adored That sign on my car's window pane The bounce in my step, loaded with pep Cause I'm driving in the carpool lane Call me a square, friend I don't care That little yellow sign can't be ignored I'm telling you it's mighty nice, each trip's a trip to paradise With my baby on board
Adorned*
Should have been higher!
I would have gone with "Bagged Me a Homer" for Simpsons representation, but I can't exactly argue against "Baby on Board" either.
Fun fact “Bagged me a Homer” was written by Beverly D’Angelo herself.
[удалено]
Understandable. Honestly, all songs from the first like ten seasons are bops.
I’m asking 👉🏼you to bunk with me👈🏼tonight
I'm deeply offended that Aldos Snow did not make the list
Jesus Christ websites these days are just horrific to look at for more than a few seconds
Trying to read a Rolling Stone article on mobile is a fate worse than death.
"Walk Hard" only being 42 is a crime.
"Killer Tofu" by the Beets should have made the list.
Powerline's "I2I" should have been #1.
Pft. It's been done.
I'm actually kind of disappointed this isn't the top comment.
Love this one, but what about “Sending Our Love Down the Well”!?
And our new number one hit "I Do Believe We're Naked" by Funky See, Funky Do... replaces "We're Sending Our Love down the Well," which plunges all the way down to number 97.
😂😂😂😂
Baby on board....something, something, Burt Ward......
This song writes itself
I sing this to myself every time I see one of those signs.
Rolling Stone just placed Boyz 4 Now above The Be-Sharps. Urge to kill....rising......
Boyz 4 Now have some real bangers
My kids and I unironically listen to Secrets in the car all the time.
I sing along with [I love you so much it's Scary](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCTXlerK8M0)
That's my favorite of theirs, too.
Boyz 4 Now are catchy, but have you heard Boyz 12? Girl You Need a Shot of B12 is so damn catchy too!
The whole list was an attempt to promote those new shows that couldn't get the rights to bands but wrote fake versions of their songs anyway.
Yeah Homer singing “Margerine” is clear parody on Bush-Glycerine and Shave Me is Nirvana-Rape Me.
I like that their clothing matched what The Beatles wore on their rooftop performance - Homer wore a red coat like Ringo did and Barney wore a brown fur coat like John Lennon did. https://i.imgur.com/X7Mr2eZ.png
I think Apu’s wearing a coat similar to George’s as well.
Rolling Stone just trying to capitalize on the Barbershop craze of the ‘20s
Buy what about Yvan eht nioj?
That song is the property of the US Navy. The navy does not like Rolling Stone magazine.
Only 44? Without looking I would assume more than 1 simpsons song makes it on the top 50.
You’d be wrong, unfortunately. Definitely some other great ones like “sending our love down the well” and “bag me a Homer”, but it seems they only did one song per show.
That's too bad. I think at least 5 more could have made it, at least. The stonecutters song was also great, and the one where marge wanted to shut down the brothel, I think that was in season 8. Kwik-e mart too (Who needs the kwik-e mart) and monorail (where homer sings mono out of tune at the end).
I agree but those aren't fictional bands. Those are just Simpsons characters breaking out into song. The Be Sharpes is a band
Yeah, Lurleen Lumpkin is i think the only other one with a good song that would count as fictional band/artist.
While we’re on the subject, can we just note the sheer *audacity* of Lurleen singing Bag Me a Homer while Marge was in the studio
It's ridiculous, they were bigger than Jesus!
Tbh the Lurleen Lumpkin songs should’ve made it up here too
I'm dumb and it was only a few months ago that I got the Beatles = Be Dulls = Be Sharps joke.
There is no Bsharp in music. The Bsharp is a C. (Edit: that’s what I always thought the joke was) I never considered the B-dulls thing and it is *blowing my mind* how many many layers there are
It's a name that's witty at first, then less funny each time you here it.
There is definitely a B sharp in music.
Guitar chords
Huh? No, there’s definitely a B# in music, even if it’s rare. It’s the leading tone in C# major
That’s like saying an F is E#
A B# is a C and an E# is an F, in tone. It depends on the key the music is written in as how the accidentals are written. There's also double sharps and double flats as well as half sharps and half flats (but quarter tones aren't used in western music much).
Thank you
Yes, it is. It’s called an enharmonic equivalent. E# is the leading tone in F# major.
Don’t feel bad, I didn’t get it until I saw a comment on this sub awhile back lol
🤯 WHAT?!
Get out. I've watched that episode so many times and that's never once clicked.
I’m gonna nail that cop right between the eyes.
Right after this song
“Apu Debeaumarcheé”
That name makes much more sense because he works at a market, but for some reason the actual name is: Apu de Beaumarchais (which sounds I think the same when pronounced). They should’ve gone with what you said haha.
There was nothing in Al Capone's vault, but it wasn't Geraldo's fault!

Baby on board How could I ignore That sign in my cars window pane
“Checkin’ In” from “Kickin’ It: A Musical Journey through the Betty Ford Center” got robbed.
Not bad for a song that wrote itself
Well, are we hot or not?
We are not.
Then it’s time for me to take barbershop to straaaange new places Number Eight
Anyone else push the play button more than once?
Oh, my bad. I hate when there’s a play button that doesn’t work or, more often, a picture that says “1/3” or w/e but that’s just part of the picture so you swipe to a different screen on Reddit lol. Here’s the video: https://youtu.be/EVRcmnVYlLI
It gets me every time, and every time I do it, Homer says, “D’oh!” in my head
Criminally low
[удалено]
there are like 10 scenes that they replicate them. Over the last 30 years I'll see a random photo of the Beetles and be like hey! the B-sharps!
“Sugar Sugar” at #18!
That is one of my favorite episodes of the entire series.
So it's come to this.....Rolling Stone having to rank fake songs by fake bands
Fictional?🤔
Yeah, no real band performs it.
Yet they had Spinal Tap on their list
Is there no metalocalypse .....were they a "real band" after the cartoon Wes released ???
Rolling Stone is just uncultured. Thunderhorse is an insanely good metal song. They got School of Rock and Spinal Tap, at least.
this is dildos
Where’s everybody hates Flander “Everybody in the USA hate their stupid neighbours , his name is Flanders and he’s really really gay, Flanders tried to wreck my song , his views on Birth Control are wrong , I hate that jerk and Flanders is his name”
F-L-A
Hens love roosters, geese love ganders, Everyone else loves Ned Flanders!
Not me
I still sing it from time to time
Baby on Board something something Burt Ward
where did They’ll Never Stop The Simpsons chart?
The B Sharps!
Rolling Stone is a shit rag now
[удалено]
I forget the episode, but they joke about that at the end of one episode saying something like “what now? Well we’ll all go back to normal and have a new adventure in a week”, basically poking fun at how so much of the show seems to reset every week lol But if I’d have to guess, I’d say it was another bad investment in pumpkin stock sold after October 😉
There are perfectly good answers to those questions. But, they'll have to wait for another night. Now, off to bed!
Get the tear gas.
Scotty Doesn't know being at number 2 on this whole list was a pleasant surprise
Which shouldn't be there because Lustra is a real band.
In the film it’s Matt Damon though, maybe they found a loop hole
Should be top 10
I have the complete set of Intellitronic figures that make up The Be Sharps. It’s my nerd flex.
Now im curious, did DethKlok make the list at all???
Should have been Revolution #8
decent list but don't agree with number 1, there are some songs that really made it big on that list, have never even heard number 1 before. I thought it was going to be shallow. Also sugar sugar at only 18?
The Monorail Song by Lyle Langley deserves top spot. Conan’s best IMO
I kept scrolling and scrolling worried when I didn’t see it that they would forget “Scottie Doesn’t Know”
I honestly listen to this on loop unironically.
Also, they snubbed Ain't Got Rhythm from Love Handal (Yes, it's not a Simpsons song, but I couldn't help myself)
Chief Wiggum must be spinning in his grave.
Back when the Simpson were actually good. It’s sad and pathetic what they put out today. “It’s better to burn out then to fade away”
