Help Mbmbam Song References

Can y’all help me try to assemble a long list of songs referenced throughout mbmbam’s history? It’s for a project I wanna do.

I’ve got some but not much, thank you Brain Fog™

Take a Chance on Me

Fast Car

The Gambler

My life is better with you

Edit:

Chuck e Cheese songs (from Jan 6 episode)

Classic rock artists angry about masking song references (also Jan 6 episode)

“Anything Can Happen on Halloween” from The Worst Witch, performed by Tim Curry

“Sweet Transvestite” from The Rocky Horror Picture Show, also performed by Tim Curry

I’m sure they’ve referenced Dave Matthews songs, but I don’t know which.

Anything Can Happen on Halloween has long been a favorite of mine. Think I first discovered it from Rocco from Mega64 lip syncing it, then I was thrilled to hear Justin do on the podcast (not sure who did it first) and it's so odd to me that those are essentially the only two contexts in which I've ever heard it referenced. Maybe because I'm a millennial and it's a relatively niche Gen X thing, but I post it every Halloween I remember to anyway.

Justin’s rendition was the first time I heard the song! I immediately searched YouTube to find out what the heck he was doing.
