Amhrán na bhFiann
Amhrán na bhFiann (The Soldier's Song) is the national anthem of the Republic of Ireland. Initially composed in English by Peadar Kearney in 1909 to music by Patrick Heeney composed in 1910, it was translated into Irish by Liam Ó Rinn in 1923. Only the chorus of the Irish translation is used as the anthem.
Sinne Fianna Fáil,
atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn,
Buíon dár slua
thar toinn do ráinig chugainn,
Faoi mhóid bheith saor
Seantír ár sinsear feasta,
Ní fhágfar faoin tíorán ná faoin tráill.
Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil, chun báis nó saoil,
Le gunna-scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar,
Seo libh canaig' amhrán na bhFiann.
Two versions of Amhrán na bhFiann are heard in the radio; one by an orchestra used on RTÉ in 1961, and the other by the United States Navy Band.
The Ants Go Marching
Rob Cantor of the "fabloo" rock band Tally Hall, who actually works for Disney Junior, added a bit of swing to the nursery rhyme.
The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching one by one,
The little one stops to suck his thumb
And they all go marching down to the ground
To get out of the rain
The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching two by two,
The little one stops to tie his shoe
And they all go marching down to the ground
To get out of the rain
The ants go marching three by three, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching three by three, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching three by three,
The little one stops to climb a tree
And they all go marching down to the ground
To get out of the rain
The ants go marching four by four, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching four by four, hurrah, hurrah
The ants go marching four by four,
The little one stops to shut the door
And they all go marching down to the ground
To get out of the rain

Better Call Saul has seen a surge of popularity, along with Breaking Bad, the show it is a spinoff and prequel to. Its main theme (especially the intro) is commonly associated with a 3D rendering of Saul Goodman.
Big Iron
To the town of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine day
Hardly spoke to folks around him, didn't have too much to say
No one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip
The stranger there among them had a big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
It was early in the morning when he rode into the town
He came riding from the south side, slowly looking all around
"He's an outlaw loose and running", came a whisper from each lip
"And he's here to do some business with a big iron on his hip"
Big iron on his hip
In this town, there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red
Many men had tried to take him and that many men were dead
He was vicious and a killer, though a youth of twenty-four
And the notches on his pistol numbered one and nineteen more
One and nineteen more
Now the stranger started talking, made it plain to folks around
Was an Arizona Ranger, wouldn't be too long in town
He came here to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead
And he said it didn't matter, he was after Texas Red
After Texas Red
Wasn't long before the story was relayed to Texas Red
But the outlaw didn't worry, men that tried before were dead
Twenty men had tried to take him, twenty men had made a slip,
Twenty-one would be the Ranger with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
The morning passed so quickly, it was time for them to meet
It was twenty past eleven when they walked out in the street
Folks were watching from their windows, everybody held their breath
They knew this handsome Ranger was about to meet his death
About to meet his death
There was forty feet between them when they stopped to make their play
And the swiftness of the Ranger is still talked about today
Texas Red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped
And the Ranger's aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
It was over in a moment and the folks had gathered 'round
There before them lay the body of the outlaw on the ground
Oh, he might have went on living, but he made one fatal slip
When he tried to match the Ranger with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
Big iron, big iron
When he tried to match the Ranger with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip

The other songs featured in the episode are also bossa nova, as each episode revolves around a specific genre of music.
Castaways, we are castaways
Ahoy there, ahoy, we are castaways
We're stuck where we are with no house, no car
Castaways, ahoy, we are castaways
We were out at sea on a sailing ship
The rain began to rain and the wind began to whip
We felt the ship tip, it was going down
So we launched our lifeboat so we wouldn't drown
Castaways, we are castaways
Ahoy there, ahoy, we are castaways
On an island at sea
Just me, me, and me
Castaways, ahoy, we are castaways

Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you
There's a time that I remember, when I did not know no pain
When I believed in forever, and everything would stay the same
Now my heart feels like December when somebody say your name
'Cause I can't reach out to call you, but I know I will one day, yeah
Everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody hurts someday, ayy ayy
But everything gon' be alright
Go and raise a glass and say

Cheers to the wish you were here, but you're not
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we've been through

Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
'Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back, memories bring back you
Doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo
Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Memories bring back, memories bring back you
There's a time that I remember when I never felt so lost
When I felt all of the hatred was too powerful to stop (hey diddly ho)
Now my heart feels like an ember and it's lighting up the dark
I'll carry these torches for ya that you know I'll never drop, yeah
Everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody hurts someday, ayy ayy
But everything gon' be alright
Go and raise a glass and say

Perhaps the most iconic song in My Singing Monsters, now with lyrics sung by Tawkerr (M) and Parlsona (F), which are as follows:
Every monster knows how the plants grow
And every monster cares
And they know how they shape, and they feed them
And they keep them alive
Let's watch plants grow
Let's watch plants grow
Everything here is alive
Everything here is alive
They sleep when it gets cold, and the leaves turn
They turn red and they turn gold
They need sunlight, and water, and earth, and the air
To keep them alive
That's how plants grow
That's how plants grow
Everything herе is alive
Everything herе is alive
Everything here is alive
Everything here is alive
A note becomes a chord, becomes a phrase, becomes a melody
And a note becomes a monster
Everything here is alive
Everything here is alive
You plant a seed, it settles in
And then it bursts, and then it splits, and makes a twin
Then there were more
Look across the landscape
And you'll find
It's just a bunch of plants

The song contains both Spanish and English lyrics, and is considered to be within the genre of progressive pop.
So many crosses she could nail you to
But I think that this one will do
Dripping initials from rotting fruit
Look in the mirror and say it three times
¿Qué dice el espejo que se cayó?
Alma vítrea
Que Dios te maldiga, corazón
Slow the drip down
Una voz desde la niebla oscura
Mi cruz al revés lo escondió
Don't block the view
Silhouette of a silhouette
Time-stamped
No nothing of proof
Silhouette of
Silhouette of his control
Has no one considered he'd run? oh-oh
Stole your breath when he's got it
This is a silhouette of his control
Yes, it's loaded, that thing is loaded
He'd always leave it in the safe by her portrait
Yes, it's loaded, that thing was loaded
He'd flash it at you with a hint of a smile
Loaded
Loaded
She feeds her young by remote
With children who conspire to feast on the world
The Rake Hornpipe
The Rake Hornpipe gained popularity after being heavily associated with The Krusty Krab. However, it wasn't composed specifically for SpongeBob SquarePants. It was composed in 1985 with the intent of using it for a training college video, but it didn't end up being used. Now you can hear it in Folk Songs - Story Songs - Part 2.
The hornpipe is a traditional dance from the British Isles originating from the 16th century, and is commonly associated with sailors, which probably explains why this example was used in SpongeBob SquarePants. This hornpipe features concertina and tin whistle.

ryuupekosi is a medley of 50 songs in Toki Pona, a constructed language with around 125 words, with vocals by Toki Pona enthusiast Coppersalts, who plays Copper Pepper.

Sea Lion Barking
The iconic barks of the California sea lion are stereotypical for the seal family as a whole. This sound effect, somehow, has reverb.
State Anthem of the Republic of Uzbekistan
Because, somehow, the site icon was changed to a square of the flag of Uzbekistan. The lyrics in Uzbek are as follows:
Serquyosh, hur oʻlkam, elga baxt, najot,
Sen oʻzing doʻstlarga yoʻldosh, mehribon – mehribon!
Yashnagay to abad ilmu fan, ijod,
Shuhrating porlasin toki bor jahon!
Oltin bu vodiylar — jon Oʻzbekiston,
Ajdodlar mardona ruhi senga yor!
Ulugʻ xalq qudrati joʻsh urgan zamon,
Olamni mahliyo aylagan diyor!
Bagʻri keng oʻzbekning oʻchmas iymoni,
Erkin, yosh avlodlar senga zoʻr qanot, zoʻr qanot!
Istiqlol mashʼali, tinchlik posboni,
Haqsevar, ona yurt, mangu boʻl obod!
Oltin bu vodiylar — jon Oʻzbekiston,
Ajdodlar mardona ruhi senga yor!
Ulugʻ xalq qudrati joʻsh urgan zamon,
Olamni mahliyo aylagan diyor!
Statler and Waldorf
Man, this music is nonsense.

I wish I were an editor so I could break that radio down!

Oh ho ho ho!

Statler and Waldorf can't get enough of heckling, don't they?
Super Smash Bros. Brawl Main Theme
The main theme of the iconic Wii game, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, sung in Latin, featuring soprano Oriko Takanashi and tenor Ken Nishikiori.
Audi famam illius.
Solus in hostes ruit
et patriam servavit.
Audi famam illius.
Cucurrit quaeque tetigit destruens.
Audi famam illius.
Audi famam illius.
Spes omnibus, mihi quoque.
Terror omnibus, mihi quoque.
Ille
iuxta me.
Ille iuxta me.
Socii sunt mihi,
qui olim viri fortes
rivalesque erant.
Saeve certando pugnandoque
splendor crescit.

When Johnny Comes Marching Home
The Ants Go Marching was actually derived from this Civil War song. Modified lyrics briefly tell the history of the war.
Note: At the time, the word "gay" meant "joyful".
When Johnny comes marching home again,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give him a hearty welcome then,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Oh, the men will cheer the boys will shout
The ladies they will all turn out,
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.
Get ready for the Jubilee,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
We'll give the hero three times three,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Well, the laurel wreath is ready now
To place upon his loyal brow,
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.
And we'll all feel gay
When Johnny comes marching home.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-one
Hurrah! Hurrah!
That was when the war begun,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
In eighteen hundred and sixty-two,
Both sides were falling to,
And we'll all drink stone wine,
When Johnny comes marching home.
And we'll all drink stone wine,
When Johnny comes marching home.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-three,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Old Abe, he ended slavery
Hurrah! Hurrah!
In eighteen hundred and sixty-three
Old Abe, he ended slavery
And we'll all drink stone wine,
When Johnny comes marching home.
And we'll all drink stone wine,
When Johnny comes marching home.
In eighteen hundred and sixty-four,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Abe called for five hundred thousand more,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
In eighteen hundred and sixty-five,
They talked rebellion--strife;
And we'll all drink stone wine
When Johnny comes marching home.
And we'll all drink stone wine
When Johnny comes marching home
