I tried writing a song for the Hulk, didn’t get anywhere with it. If someone has some suggestions, I’d love to hear them! Just a chorus of “Hulk Smash! Hulk Crash! Hulk Slash!” over and over. And here I was intending the serious “Ballad of Bruce Banner.”

Godalmighty, I just watched the “Star Spangled Man” song from Captain America: The First Avenger for the first time in a while (I saw the movie twice, once in theaters and once two years ago or so–I’ve probably got to watch it again, it’s really good), and, wow, yeah, what I wrote up is very close to what was actually in the movie. That wasn’t necessarily my intention, though of course I was riffing on that scene–I didn’t want it to be as close as it is, and I purposely didn’t rewatch the scene when I wrote my little ditty.
So I’m intending to rework it if I get an opportunity. But I’m thinking, we should have a number for each character, each one’s style fitting with the hero’s theme and characterization.
For Cap, an Andrews Sisters-like song. That was what I’d originally intended, but both “Star Spangled Man” and my lyrics went halfway between Cohan and Berlin instead. For Thor, it has to be opera, or at least operetta, to do justice to the mythological themes. But I’m stuck on Iron Man and Hulk–and I guess the later characters (Spidey? Modern-day pop song? I’d be awful at writing that), if we get around to ’em.

For some reason I keep going back to this. Anyone else still interested? I really want to write Lorenz Hart-esque lyrics to Andrews Sisters-esque music for a Captain America song, but I can’t think up a tune without stealing one of theirs—I’m no composer.

I think the Avengers should just make a band and release a music video. Probably easier than a full musical.

I think we should add a new song here every day until we have the entire MCU in musical form!

I was working on this, and unfortunately this is as far as I got. If anyone has any suggestions, I’m more than welcome to them.

This took way too much time to write, so please excuse it if it’s awful… [ ODIN has just left the stage; THOR seems to be alone, but LOKI sneaks in from stage-left. The audience doesn’t see him at first, but hears him singing, and he eventually enters in his second verse. Twin spotlights will be on both characters to indicate that they’re in separate places in Asgard, pondering these thoughts simultaneously but (of course) unconnectedly.] Wow, this is actually slightly better than I remembered. I’d love to rework it one day.

Thor singing:
I was a super duper Nordic hero Disney made me a big fat zero

Nay. What character would even be suited? Deadpool, perhaps.

Hawkeye gave us a little taste of it with the Rogers musical!
