I kind of liked those songs that Polaris did for "The Adventures of Pete & Pete," but were those fake enough?
I think Polaris was a side project specifically for Pete & Pete, but that show did have lots of other good music by Stephen Merritt too.
I love all the Paul Williams songs for the Muppets.
I can't for the life of me find a decent clip of it, but the song "Higher and Higher" from Wet Hot American Summer. I get that shit in my head all the time.
I think that was Craig Wedren. I know he did the Stella theme too (which I liked). "Higher and Higher" fits into the movie so well, especially with all the great Loverboy songs.
