Eep, Opp, Ork, Ah-Ah! as played by the Violent Femmes. I mentioned this song about a month ago, and FINALLY found my CD. More cartoon tunes inside.→[More:]

My favorite one: Underdog, by the Butthole Surfers

Josie & The Pussycats, by Juliana Hatfield and Tanya Donnelly

The Banana Splits, by Liz Phair and Material Issue

Spiderman, by the Ramones

and

Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? by Matthew Sweet

All of these songs are from this compilation.

Hmmm... the Banana Splits link is giving some kind of error, so here's that song again.

That is all; carry on.

Speaking of: This is a wonderful dex, full of cartoon goodness.

The Dickies pretty much covered "Eep, Oop" (on their Killer Klowns release), "Gigantor" and the Banana Splits theme before anyone else. White Flag's version of "(You're a Mean One) Mr. grinch" can be found on the 4 Bands That Could Change The World! compilation, while Toy Dolls performed "Rupert the Bear".

The Cocteau Twins also recorded "Frosty the Snowman", though this was around their Heaven or Las Vegas period, so YMMV.

Heh, I've been listening to Tom & Jerry soundtracks lately; each is about 7 1/2 minutes long.
