Tmnt Songs?

So, besides the Theme songs from the Cartoons and movies, how many songs out there are about or feature the tmnt? The ones I know of are:

Turtle Power- Kryme Tyme sp?

Ninja Rap- Vanilla Ice

Shell Shock- Gym Class Heroes

The Shredder- Ravage

Any others out there? I love all these songs!

Turtle Crazy by The Toy Dolls
What If Cartoons Got Saved by Chris Rice

Plus all the songs the turtles themselves have sung. like Pizza Power, On Top of the Pizza, Pizza USA, Sewer Surfing, Leonardo Has a Rowboat, Count On Us, Comin Out of Our Shells, ect.

Turtle Power was by Partners N Krhyme.

I had the soundtrack to the first 2 turtles movies, and played them so much until they both broke.

Your Totally Awesome by Ya Kid K from the SOTO soundtrack mentioned the turtles.

I guess the Coming Out of Our Shells Tour isn't worthy enough.

Swedish songs

"Kuddkrig" (meaning: "pillow fight") by "Pandang" (2006 hip hop song from Melodifestivalen, the Swedish Eurovision Song Contest preselection, icnludes "Turtles-gubbar" refering to TMNT action figures)
"Segertåget" by electronic pop group "Maskinen" (2008, including the words "Hej, här kommer segertåget, rullar in som Teknodromen", which means "Hey, here comes the triumphal procession, rolling in like the Technodrome")

I hate those songs.

Mika

I always think of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles when mike sings "Teenage dreams in a teenage circus" in the song "We Are Golden" (which is fantastic).

I really like this song, every time i listen to it I just think of the last scene in SOTO. It's super catchy.

The song Michelangelo by Emmylou Harris makes me think of...well Mikey.... especially the last verse:

Last night I dreamed about you
I dreamed that you were weeping
And your tears poured down like diamonds
For a love beyond all keeping
And you caught them one by one
In a million silk bandanas that I gave you
Long ago
Michelangelo

It's an awesome song and there used to be a vid to it to SAINW on YouTube but it was taken down... meh...

On a related note, I love those (rather rare) voiced songs in 2k3. In Season 2, 'City At War 1' when Raph and Leo were running on the rooftops, think it's called 'Midnight Run' and in 'April's Artifact' the Tarzan OST-like song, think it may be called 'It's a Jungle Out There'? Wonder which band did those songs?

I also dig the Japanese intro songs/ending to the series, think there're several versions of it for different seasons.

I hear you.

I'm still in shock that Ludacris hasn't made mention of them yet.

Here's a couple theme remakes:
HORSE the Band - T.M.N.T.
Bonded By Blood - Theme From Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Also, Ya Kid K's song, Awesome (You Are My Hero), wasn't originally planned to have anything to do with TMNT. It's just a similar thing to what Bobby Brown did to get on the Ghostbusters II soundtrack.

Swedish rock singer Björn Skifs' (who scored a 1974 hit in the USA with the song "Hooked on a Feeling" in the band Blue Swede) 1975 song for the Swedish Eurovision Song Contest preselection was also named "Michelangelo", refering to the Renaissance artist.

Found a video featuring a song that I think is done by the artistes behind 'Everybody' (one of the opening songs of the Japanese 2k3 toon). Just thought to share it.
