After watching nearly every episode through Netflix, I’ve come to realize that Phineas and Ferb is not only a great cartoon, but may have the most catchy songs of all time!

It doesn’t matter which episode - they’re all catchy as hell! Although my son and I have the Best of All Time from Phineas and Ferb (B.A.L.T.P.A.F., for short) narrowed down to “[Squirrels in My Pants](http://phineasandferb.wikia.com/wiki/S.I.M.P._%28Squirrels_In_My_Pants%29),” “[Backyard Beach](http://phineasandferb.wikia.com/wiki/Backyard_Beach),” or “[Floor After Floor](http://phineasandferb.wikia.com/wiki/Floor_After_Floor).”

What’s your pick?

Some favorites of mine are:  
When We Didn’t Get Along  
E.V.I.L. B.O.Y.S.  
Spa Day

And everything from “Dude, We’re Getting the Band Back Together.” I have a soft spot for Love Händel.

Oh, and [this](http://youtu.be/guQPUBecZRs), but only for the video.

“A-G-L-E-T, don’t forget it.”

Mom’s birthday song is quite catchy, as well.

I love Come Home, Perry. My daughter always says “Hey Candace, why don’t you sing?” and makes me sing Candace’s part, so it’s a fun bonding moment for us. Her favorite song is the Fireside Girl song. And Busted, which is helping her spell… sorta. “B-T-U-D-E-S YOU’RE BUST-TED!”

My favourite episode is “Phineas and Ferb’s Quantum Boogaloo”, which features a cameo by Bowling for Soup drawn in as themselves, singing the seldom-heard (unless, like our family, you have the first soundtrack CD) _second_ verse of “Today is Gonna Be a Great Day”, the _Phineas and Ferb_ theme song:

Crossing the tundra  
or building a rollercoaster,  
skiing down a mountain of beans.  
Devising a system for remembering everything  
or synchronising submarines!  
Racing chariots!  
Taming tiger sharks!  
Constructing a portal to Mars!  
Building a time machine,  
stretching a rubber tree,  
or wailing away on guitars!

Ironically, the last three times I saw BFS shows (strangely enough, all three within the last two months), they sing the song only as it is in the show’s opening, and stop there.

While I love Phineas & Ferb and their songs, the one song I dislike is “Squirrels in My Pants.” Oh well.

“Evil Love” and “Truck Driving Girl” both crack me up though.

“Little Brothers”

"Because you’re younger, we’re related, and you’re boys. " Love that lyric!

“Come Home, Perry” for me too…I sing this to myself almost every other day.

I like all of Vanessa’s songs: “Busted”, “I’m Me”, “Not so Bad a Dad After All”, as well as the other songs that her voice actor sings (“I’m Lindana and I Wanna Have Fun” and “Ready for the Bettys”)

I just love Squirrels in my Pants. I have to vote for it. Amazing show all around, though.

Oh, me too. “Like a ninja of love, rapelling down from above…”

Aside from that entire episode, I (Oh, I mean, my five-year-old-daughter) am another fan of “Squirrels in My Pants”, “Gitchee Gitchee Goo”, “Busted”, “Mom it’s your birthday”, and “Little Brothers”, and we also love “Queen of Mars”, but our all-time favourite musical moment is [this.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzM1NugtMk4) “Society’s a platypus!”
