Sitcom OSTs That Still Have Our Heart

Whether it was the cast of The Office dancing to "Forever" at Jim and Pam's wedding, or Jake Peralta making suspects sing "I Want It That Way" on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, music has always been instrumental in the mechanisms of television.

However, sometimes shows go one step further and create an entirely new soundtrack from scratch. These goofy soundtracks have shown unprecedented creativity and captured the heart of their viewers. Here are five original soundtracks that still bring a smile to fans' faces.

"101 Rap" from Community

"101 Rap" is the freestyle rap that Troy and Abed made while sitting in Group Study Room F. It was improvised from the beginner Spanish phrases and words they were learning in their Spanish 101 class. This song reminds all of us that Donald Glover can make, "Where is the library/ My name is T-Bone/ The Disco Spider," sound catchy.

"In the Moonlight" from Modern Family

This is a song written and performed by Dylan Marshall, for his on screen love, Haley Dunphy. Hayley, in order to prove to her parents that Dylan is not a bad influence on her, asked him to sing this song in front of her entire family.

Her family, almost appeased by the first verse, changes their tunes when the second verse of Dylan's song suddenly takes a turn for the explicit. Despite their outrage at the crude subject of the song, the ending montages of the episode shows various members jamming out to Dylan's song.  

"5000 Candles in the Wind'' from Parks and Recreation

Performed by Pawnee's best band, Mouse Rat, it was a tribute to the beloved miniature horse, Li'l Sebastian, and was written by Andy Dwyer. Andy misunderstood Leslie Knope when she asked him to write a song that is 5000 times better than Elton John's "Candle in the Wind". Thus, 5000 Candles in the Wind was created. Despite the running gags, this song remains to be one of Mouse Rat's best hits.

"A Little Bit Alexis" from Schitt's Creek

Taken from Alexis Rose's critically reviewed limited reality series, "A Little Bit Alexis" stays true to its name. "I'm a Lamborghini, I'm a Hollywood star... I'm expensive sushi, I'm a cute huge yacht," explains the fabulous life Alexis led before she moved to Schitt's Creek. It also adds to the comedic timing of the show when Alexis decides to audition for Cabaret with this song.

"Let's Go to the Mall" from How I Met Your Mother

Nothing will top the revelation of Robin Scherbatsky's secret past where she was a teenage pop star named Robin Sparkles who hung around in the mall and sang this unbelievably catchy song. The song will effectively set off so many inside jokes, gags that it can be said that How I Met Your Mother would not be the same without "Let's Go to the Mall."
