Description
Warning: "This song's gonna get stuck inside your head!" This ultimate earworm from the Warner Bros. computer-animated adventure comedy The LEGO® Movie 2: The Second Part pretty much guarantees giggles with its zany lyrics, more-than-memorable tune, and techno-pop rhythms. We dare you to sit still, challenge you not to smile, and bet you'll be singing this long after the final blast. So easy to learn---with just a couple of repeated choral riffs and enough spoken solos to feature several of your best rappers.

Don't just read it, hear it, play along with it, and watch your students grow with it. In MakeMusic Cloud, Catchy Song: 2-Part Choral Octavo comes alive with professional accompaniment, adjustable tempo, and built-in practice tools that turn solo practice into real progress.

More about this title

About the Composer: Jon Lajoie

Jon Lajoie is a Canadian musician, comedian, and composer known for blending humor with catchy pop songwriting. His work spans film, television, and digital media, often featuring absurdist comedy and infectious melodies that appeal to both children and adults.

Why we love this

This arrangement captures the infectious energy of the original film track while keeping the learning curve shallow. The combination of simple repeated riffs, spoken solo sections for multiple students, and techno-pop rhythms means everyone stays engaged, and the novelty factor virtually guarantees your singers will want to perform it repeatedly.

What to expect

Bouncy and deliberately silly, with synth-driven rhythms that propel the tune forward. The repeated choral riffs are deceptively simple, but their catchiness creates an almost hypnotic effect that has singers and audiences humming along before the final note sounds.

Who it's for

This octavo suits middle and high school choirs seeking accessible, high-engagement material for younger singers and mixed-ability ensembles. It works equally well for groups that prioritize fun and participation over technical complexity, and the novelty appeal makes it ideal for all-school performances or events where audience energy matters.

How to get the most out of it

  • Secure clear diction on the spoken sections; these comedic moments land only when lyrics are crisp and the timing is locked with the accompaniment.
  • Emphasize the rhythmic precision of the techno-pop elements rather than pursuing lyrical expression; let the groove drive the performance.
  • Assign your strongest communicators to the spoken solo roles so they can deliver the humor with confidence and personality.
  • Use the recorded accompaniment to establish the electronic production sound, which grounds the vocals within the movie's aesthetic.

How to use it

Pair this with another pop or contemporary selection to anchor a lighter concert segment, or use it as an opener to set a playful tone for the evening. Its approachability and movie pedigree also make it a smart choice for recruiting singers who think they "don't like choir" or for engaging families unfamiliar with choral music.

Skills your students will build

  • Rhythmic precision in syncopated pop patterns
  • Spoken word delivery with musical timing
  • Part independence in 2-part homophonic texture
  • Diction clarity at moderate to fast tempos
  • Memorization through repetitive melodic structures
