'Afternoon Delight' from "Anchorman" was a big bag of awesome perfection & is arguably top 5 spontaneous singing #'s ever, in my opinion. Also, "Nacho Llbre" is so underrated, it's a tragedy. It's truly hilarious.
If your are going to put the song title up at least put up the correct video clip with that song in it. I know it was an honorable mention, but it does deserve the correction.
TheHauntedMansionFan12345 Talking about movie audiences in general. Many who would have been too lazy or not cared enough to read the Hobbit beforehand.
shane55pwnt Actually, being the books were from JRR Tolkien ad had been adapted to be in movies before the LoTR Live Action movies, i woul think that ost of the audiences would have read the books, or at least a good perceentage
I remember being in middle school when Anchorman came out, every kid was obsessed with. We were at that age where a lot of the stuff would go over our heads. I remember me and my buddies practicing the song the way they sang it in this scene and getting looks of confusion and concern from adults, we had little to no idea how sexual the song was.
+TheA4p999 Usually I get annoyed with people complaining about minor things like this. However, I completely agree with you on this one. Every time the music was interrupted I was a bit perturbed.
Cant believe they didn't include the Pippin (aka Peregrin Took) song from Return Of The King . Talk about unexpected singing moments , a beautiful folk song in the middle of a battle scene that actually works . Amazing
+ChokoboLP thanks for this comment , now i dont have to make the same one, but that is one of my favorite scenes in Almost Famous so ill let it slide this time.
There is a video where this whole bridal party re-enacted that scene from My Best Friend's wedding at their wedding complete with crab claws...it is so good. The original was one of my favorites, but every time I see it, I'm like, if people really broke out in song like that, why aren't the people in the background taking notice in the beginning? Like is that so normal at this restaurant for visitors to just sing, that no one even looks up?
I said it out loud. You probably did too. For those of us who feel something in that moment of the story, the affect was there, even without saying the words.
They always seem to have honorable mentions that are better than the ones in the list. I thought the one in Young Frankenstein should have been in the list at least, if not #1. Bohemian Rhapsody was a huge deal, though, so I do think it's placed right.
Wrong version of "Mockingbird" in the honorable mentions; should have been the one from "National Lampoon's Vacation". But nothing in this category beats "Babysitting Blues" from "Adventures in Babysitting". Not even "Picking Out a Thermos" from "The Jerk".
First song I thought about was Babysitting Blues as well. That scene always stands out for me even 20 years later. Im kinda surprised that didnt even make the list.
So... the introduction mentions that lip synced songs aren't included in the list, yet Michael J Fox is included - who is clearly lip syncing to something that isn't his voice.
I think they meant the character has to be singing as in marty mcfly was "singing" rather that chuck berry playing in the background and marty "pretending" to sing if you know what i mean.
this is not what they meant. Michael J Fox lip sync in real life, but Marty Mc Fly don't, when they said no lip syncing, it was about the characters lip siycing in the movie
Where is the Musical scene from Magnoia? All of a sudden every one is singing Amie Mann "Wise Up." And I love the French film "The Nest'. As the gang heads off to do the job, they start humming the theme from "The Magnificent Seven.". Soon the whole van is doing it.
I just watched Stepbrothers and thought the aria sung by Will Ferrell near the end was totally unexpected and incredibly well done. I found it hard to believe that he really sang it (and John C. Reilly actually played the drums on it; actually only the very end of his drumming was impressive).
What a shame that the Day-o scene from Beetlejuice doesn't quite meet the criteria as it was a lip sync , because that was what made the movie worth seeing. Hilarious.
I don’t think anyone expected “Take Me Home, Country Roads” to be in or to be sung as well as it was in Kingsmen 2
I'm still not over that
I live that version. He’s got such a smooth voice.

Hard Knock Life in Goldmember should have got a mention.
+Dominick McOmish omg fuck yeah lmao
+Dominick McOmish true. it was funny too
+Dominick McOmish YES X'D THAT SHOULD'VE BEEN ON THE COUNTDOWN
+Dominick McOmish Maybe because part of it had the actual song playing
should be #1
A thousand miles in White Chicks???
I thought that would be number 1
Wasn't that lip synching to the song though?
Lip sync not included.
blackclover2119 The song was playing in the background, but Terry Crews was really singing it.
Paul12169, and what an epic moment that was.
At 10:11 you said it was 'Baby it's cold outside, but you played them singing 'Santa Clause is coming to town'
Rhys Ellis come on Watchmojo get your stuff together
Lmao
If your are going to put the song title up at least put up the correct video clip with that song in it. I know it was an honorable mention, but it does deserve the correction.
WatchMojo, you had one job!

It's criminal to not sing along to "Bohemian Rhapsody" when it comes on.
Or Free Bird
You're damn right
when bohemian rapshody playing on the radio, everybody should sing along. no excuses
Brian Fantana you are not wrong Brian Fantana
It only works 100% of the time 30% of the time
AMEN to that!!!😉
ALWAYS do!!
I 100000000000%agree
You missed the 'I will survive' jail scene in 'The Replacements' one of the funniest unexpected music scenes I have ever seen.
Ahem...Scotty Doesn't Know from Eurotrip...
I was thinking of that same movie but rather the Morning Train moment at the Machester United bar.
Battle Of Trenton
Yes, it was a hard choice for me...but Matt Damon with a tongue-stud won the battle for me ;)
There's a band... it's hard to be unexpected when there's a band :D
Agreed being I think the scene in superbad was lifted from the euro trip scene.
emmamaria YES!!
"Por Ti Volare". Will Ferrell on vocals and John C. Reilly on drums, at the freakin' Catalina Wine Mixer in Step Brothers. Truly Classic.
Me: "This are all feel-good, funny scenes from movies"
"Singin' in the Rain" in A Clockwork Orange.
Me: "Oh, no..."
Jorge Ordorica yeah, that took a dark turn real fast lol
Jorge Ordorica haaaa
I was do shocked lmao
The fact they went into that much detail...could have stopped before they did.
I understand that the song part was completely ad libbed which makes it even more shocking
Ain't no Mountain High from Remember the Titans?!
dudr that was the first scene i thought of
That was my first choice!
They said no lip sync
Sister Act
And Stepmom
I was expecting Emma Stone on Easy A, singing Pocketful of Sunshine.
+Enzo Martinez That was such an awesome moment in an awesome movie
Haha yes!!
No! The knock on wood scene!!
This was iconic one
When I was a kid, I thought the lyrics were, "Hold me closer Tony Danza. Count the head lice on the highway."
I like "Jumper" in Yes Man.
Easily the best!
Good pick!
Yep
That's a good one!

Best. Absolutely.
Considering they were at a party and the skeleton band just got done singing it, it wasnt that unexpected.
It’s a Disney Movie with Bette Midler.... of course they’re gonna sing eventually
That was great.I love that song.
"I Feel Pretty" from Anger Management
Pippin in Return of the King.
Nobody saw that coming.
+Pasan Etternavn I don't think anyone expected "That's what Bilbo Baggins hates" in the Hobbit either. But yeah, I suppose that was the better moment.
And it was beautiful
+shane55pwnt Well, if you read the book, you knew it could/should be coming. (The Hobbit song)
TheHauntedMansionFan12345 Talking about movie audiences in general. Many who would have been too lazy or not cared enough to read the Hobbit beforehand.

Yes Man - Step back from that ledge scene?
Great shout!

If you're going to make a music list, don't play your own shitty background music every goddamn time you start commenting on it.
+TheA4p999 Usually I get annoyed with people complaining about minor things like this. However, I completely agree with you on this one. Every time the music was interrupted I was a bit perturbed.
"Show me the way to go home..."

Had a little drink about an hour ago
Cant believe they didn't include the Pippin (aka Peregrin Took) song from Return Of The King . Talk about unexpected singing moments , a beautiful folk song in the middle of a battle scene that actually works . Amazing
How is the Almost Famous one unexpected? It's a movie about musicians, you would expect them to sing at some point, wouldn't you?
Not exactly. There musicians not singers.
Exactly, they don't found ferris but they count a movie literally about music.
+ChokoboLP its just too good of a moment not to have on this list
I was thinking the same thing.
+ChokoboLP thanks for this comment , now i dont have to make the same one, but that is one of my favorite scenes in Almost Famous so ill let it slide this time.
This is from after this video was made, but Take Me Home Country Roads from Kingsman: The Golden Circle. Iconic.
No Pocketful of Sunshine from Easy A?
I clicked strictly for the Anchorman one.
the iconic scene in Beetlejuice I mean come on
That was lip sync though.
Braden Henderson that's on a different list Braden
Yes yes!!!!!!
The Replacements???? Their scene in prison singing and dancing to I Will Survive is hysterical and amazing
Easy A - Pocket Full Of Sunshine... not even an honourable mention?
Rhyt Darke "Pocketful of Sunshine"? never heard of it, though I have heard of "Pocketful of Rainbows"
@@damianprock1650 th-cam.com/video/gte3BoXKwP0/w-d-xo.html
One of the most hilarious is "You're too Big to Fit in Here" from The Sweetest Thing.

Fuck yes
Cuban Pete was the best, I loved it.
Truckin Bear Yes That was Fire
Ella Enchanted - Somebody to Love
White Chicks - A Thousand Miles
Armageddon - Leaving on a jet plane
Actually the Ella Enchanted version was pretty decent.
The honorable mention says "Baby it's cold outside-Elf" but the scene they use is Santa Clause is coming to town.
How is "I Feel Pretty" from Anger Management not part of this list? One of the funniest stop and sing a song moments in any movie
o brother where art thou. man of constant sorrow
alex mccottry lip sync on Clooney’s part. The actual band’s lead singer did that
Also that was kind of a musical
That movie is a musical
Tyminski does the vocals
Magnolia has the most unexpected and powerful singing scene of all time. Pure magic.
Wither81 yes!
Puttin' on the Ritz should be a lot more than just a honorable mention. Oh sorry, I meant Puttin' on the RIIIITTTZZ!

I thought "I feel pretty" from Anger Management would be on the list.
Mike J. Fox didn’t lip sync that Johnny Be Good?
No, he can jam.
I thought that was lipped
I always thought he did too 😳🤣
I think it’s lip synced in real life, but not in the context of the movie. Marty is supposed to be singing.
I would've expected the Guardians of the Galaxy-finale :(
But that movie is very musical and that scene fit the movie very well
I feel like Jim Carrey singing “Jumper” in Yes Man should have been on the list
Anger Management? I feel pretty.....???
Oh so pretty
@@UNDERTAKERULEZ102 I feel pretty, and witty and gaaaaaaaaay!
How could you cut off the Almost Famous clip before she said “You are home” ? A moment that makes me misty eyed every time lol .
I said it out loud. You probably did too. For those of us who feel something in that moment of the story, the affect was there, even without saying the words.
I'm in a store. AND I'M SINGING-
HEY! There's no singin in the North Pole..
Yeah there is!
...no there's not.
The Clockwork Orange disturbed me so badly
The Music Box didn't Robin Williams sing an alternate version of that song in "Robots"?
I won't even watch that trashy movie.
Aimee Johnson which one.. Clockwork Orange or Robot and if you said the first one.. I wouldn’t know what to say.. 🙁
i think that was part of the point
@@aimeejo3405 have you ever watched it?
So seriously it should have made the list or at least an honorable mention; Easy A- Pocketful of Sunshine!
River Bailey haven't heard of that one, I've heard of "Pocketful of Rainbows", but never "Pocketful of Sunshine"

That step brothers moment was absolutely amazing.That whole movie is just... soooo good.
You missed Take me home in Kingsman: The Golden Circle
Where's Lord of The Rings Return of the King? Aragorn was singing at the end after he was proclaimed as the king.
Nah, the scene were Pippin sing to Denethor is more appropriate.
*sings
+Jesus Walks I think it may have been because it wasn't necessarily spontaneous. There was also other singing besides that in the trilogy.
+Jesus Walks Or what about Pippin why he sings?
Like anyone is going to choose that over Pippin's Song.
You don't own me from the first wives club has been and always will be my favorite!

How do you not put “Man of Constant Sorrow” O brother Where art thou
Pretty sure that wasn't George singing.... but still an AWESOME movie!
moon river from breakfast at tiffanys!!!
Cassandra Ortega that’s right. One of the best scenes of all time.
"I Say A Little Prayer" scene comes in at only #9 ??????
They always seem to have honorable mentions that are better than the ones in the list. I thought the one in Young Frankenstein should have been in the list at least, if not #1. Bohemian Rhapsody was a huge deal, though, so I do think it's placed right.
If this list was remade today, I’d definitely like to see Merlin’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads” from Kingsman2
Wrong version of "Mockingbird" in the honorable mentions; should have been the one from "National Lampoon's Vacation".
But nothing in this category beats "Babysitting Blues" from "Adventures in Babysitting".
Not even "Picking Out a Thermos" from "The Jerk".
First song I thought about was Babysitting Blues as well. That scene always stands out for me even 20 years later. Im kinda surprised that didnt even make the list.

Waterfalls in We Are The Millers oh yeah
Gerald Sturgill I was thinking about the friends theme from that movie.
Absolutely
"Can't Take My Eyes off You" The Deer Hunter
What about (500) Days of Summer? That had the most unexpected musical moment I can think of. And it was a great sequence too.
I was wondering how far down I was going to have to read before I found someone who would save me mentioning this.
Just saw this, and I would also include You Belong to Me sung by Steve Martin and Bernadette Peters in the movie The Jerk.
The Mask, Mr Deeds, Return of the King and An Unexpected Journey.
The Griffins on a road trip breaking into a nearly flawless rendition of "The Rose."
So... the introduction mentions that lip synced songs aren't included in the list, yet Michael J Fox is included - who is clearly lip syncing to something that isn't his voice.
I think they meant the character has to be singing as in marty mcfly was "singing" rather that chuck berry playing in the background and marty "pretending" to sing if you know what i mean.
so you're saying mcfly was lip singing a song that didn't exist yet?
The character was singing, the actor was lip syncing.
this is not what they meant. Michael J Fox lip sync in real life, but Marty Mc Fly don't, when they said no lip syncing, it was about the characters lip siycing in the movie
crazy comments... they meant no lip syncing... the actor had to be singing the song
Bohemian Rhapsody has never been the same since ....Everybody head bangs to that bit now ....I know I have !
My favourite is under pressure in "It's Kind Of A Funny Story"
yeah, that should totally have made the list too!!! it was definitely unexpected XD
as mentioned in the beginning, its movies where the actors are actually singing the song not lip syncing.
I JUST SAID THAT BEFORE I SCROLLED DOWN!
The 40-Year-Old Virgin, "Age of Aquarius"...mostly lip-synched, but still great :)
omg yes!! I lost it at the part. So unexpected and so hilarious
This movie only came out this year, but Sweet Child o'Mine in Captain Fantastic was really good.
Comfortably Plump my favourite version of The song ever
Though I love it I think Michael J Fox lip synced in back to the future
I was at least expecting an honourable mention for the 'dance-off' climax of Guardians of the Galaxy.
I agree
I was reminded of Put a Little Love in your Heart in Scrooged.
Why didn't you pick the will Ferrell song from Step Brothers on this list? The Italian one

I remember absolutely howling in the theater when he first starts singing. I had no idea what to expect and the accent killed me.

Puttin’ On The Ritz deserved an actual placement on the list! Iconic comedy gold by the late, great Gene Wilder!
Yes, huge miss by Mojo...
And Gene Wilder had to fight to get that included in the film.
The trouble with including "Puttin' on the Ritz" is that it was staged, not spontaneous, which was a requirement for the list.
Personally I always got a kick out of Leaving On a Jet Plane sung in Armageddon.
This video included is much of my fave films: Step Brothers, Ferris Bueller, Anchroman!
I prefer anchorman over anchroman
+JaegerBomb1892 We can all tell what kind of person you are
