What are some of the best examples of licence songs in cartoons and movies? The only ones I can think of are the Regular Show andDigimonmovies.
Pic related seems to be the only show that plays or played actual songs. Why did they stop?
The majority of the Shrek series actually do have soundtracks that are great to listen to on their own.
Shrek
> All Star
> Bad Reputation
> Hallelujah
> My Beloved Monster
> Stay Home
Shrek 2
> Holding Out for a Hero
> I'm on my Way
> People Ain't No Good
> Accidentally in Love
> Ever Fallen in Love
Shrek the Third
> Royal Pain
> Do you Remember Rock 'N' Roll Radio
> Immigrant Song
> Losing Streak
I do not have the Soundtrack for the fourth Shrek film.
Meet the Robinson's has an amazing soundtrack as well, especially considering I don't recall a handful of songs being in the actual film.
The Book of Life is great as well, I really like their Mariachi covers of songs, and I love the Wreck-It Ralph soundtrack for what it is; especially since they made a Buckner and Garcia song for it in the style of Pac-Man Fever, but that's not really an example of a licensed song.
I refuse to accept how good the Regular Show soundtrack is until they front the money for 'Hello Eileen'.

It's all about licensing. It costs an outrageous amount of money to have a show be allowed to play the song in the first place, as well as fee's for allowing it to play in re-runs, and then a fee for each time it's released on home media. Entire shows, such as Alvin and the Chipmunks and Muppet Babies have episodes that WILL NEVER get released for this reason, or the show just will not be released at all; and if it is, it will be hacked to pieces like Sifl and Olly or will be edited into a different creature, such as Daira. But Kudos on MTV for at least tying with those two, when a lot of networks wouldn't even do that.

Oh shoot, I forgot about Meet the Robinsons. Little Wonders is still one of my favorite songs.
OCEAN MAN

They didn't stop, unless you mean cartoons in general.
Regular Show just doesn't do it as often anymore. The movie had like 3 songs and I'm pretty sure a recent episode had another licensed one.

I just recently saw that song title pop up on a google search of older songs, I instantly wanted to listened to it to see if they could use it on a kid's show. Is it SFW? It seems perfect, maybe on a future Rigby/Eileen episode, whenever that is. They haven't talked about them dating for a little while.

WAS THAT FROM THE EPISODE WHERE THEIR CAT GETS RUN OVER
FUCK THE CREATOR OF THAT SHIT
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Pic related is the best soundtrack composed of both licensed & original pieces that I can think of.
Then again, the 60's pop/rock songs are to be expected with Wes Anderson, but I loved the addition of some more folk songs like The Ballad of Davy Crocket.

I'm not 100% sure of the whole law system, but I've never heard of that. I've see interviews with audio engineers on Hollywood films that say their studio has been fined simply for using a copyrighted sound-effect, so I'm doubtful that you could get away with that.
Although, I've heard something similiar about fair-use with Youtube videos, but that's a whole different legal realm. It confuses me as to why digital media has so many different laws. It's why Kingdom Hearts can't be downloadable for the time being; their licensed songs are only contracted to be released physically and somebody else owns the right to their digital distribution.

As far as I know it's SFW? Though I'd have to go and re-listen to the lyrics. I want is specifically for the reason you stated. I think the last time them dating was brought up was when Rigby got his G.E.D.

The 80's Alvin and The Chipmunks was some good shit. It didn't try to sugar coat anything.

No love for the Venture Brothers?

yea that's probably what i was thinking
>I think the last time them dating was brought up was when Rigby got his G.E.D
Probably, the Gymlonski episode? I'm glad they haven't pressured it, but it is a cute thing
>it didn't try to sugar coat anything
the only reason i have respect for them. it was just too tough on my little kid heart because I fucking love cats and have grown up with them all my life

Band Geeks was overrated. I'm fucking being honest. I liked it but it felt like the ending went on too long. I was old enough to have a better attention span (I was fucking 12) and all, but it just felt kinda boring. Just because a good song plays over a good episode doesn't make it defining.

OCEAN MAN!

They don't need a discussion over how good their music choice is. It just is.
obligatory Over the Garden Wall shout-out
And for real, the spongebob movie soundtrack is great. The Shins track and the flaming lips track kick ass.
Shrek's got some good stuff too, yeah--shrek 2's soundtrack introduced me to Nick Cave.
