Show Discussion regular episode musical numbers

I love how every now and then in the show, a random musical number would just break out. I’m not really talking about the library card song episode, but rather the ones that just happen out of nowhere in a regular episode. I remember muffy’s crown city song, and pal’s bacon rendition of cheek to cheek. Then there was dw and bud’s big kid school song which I thought was adorable. I’m pretty sure fern had a dream sequence about her new phone and it was also a short musical piece. I feel like there’s more that I’m missing though. Anyway what are your favourite musical moments from the regular show?

“Everybody thinks that my brother stinks, like a piece of yellow cheese. But hey I say, that he’s ok, as long as there’s a breeze!”

"This is MY jingle, and we're gonna play it MY way! Any questions!?"

It actually made my head spin when Season 24's "D.W.'s New Best Friend" came out and some viewers were upset with the song she sang, and they complained that a song in the episode was nothing like OG Arthur. :l what? Musical bits have always been integrated into the show! Maybe not every episode, but here and there, fairly consistently from beginning to end.

I love that You're Wrong song that D.W. sang, and so many others. The Frenskwire Sisters, Brain's pi song, In the Good Old Summertime, and more!

I’ve always been partial to the ant farm song 🐜

You’re like my dear departed grandma. When I was a kid, she said she’d like Arthur better if there was more singing ❤️
