Product Information

Spoofed in one episode of The 13 Ghosts of Scooby-Doo, when the crystal ball used to talk with Vincent Van Ghoul goes into a stream. As the gang chase after it, Scrappy yells, "Follow the bouncing ball, and everybody SING!" What follows is a bad rendition of 'Row Row Row Your Roat' to which Van Ghoul comments, "This is the worst dinner music I have ever heard!" Averted during the sing-along segments of The Beatles. The segments simply ran the text of the song lyrics, usually with a mini-adventure starring the Beatles, or a proto-music video. Galavant uses a bouncing bird for the lyrics of “Love Makes the World Brand New” in the second season. No other songs in the show have lyrics on the screen. To some, the flashy text looked a lot better than the standard texting, and actually helped enhance the moment. As much as it can be enhanced. Sing Along with Mitch is often thought to have used this trope due to "Common Knowledge", but Mitch Miller said this is due to people getting mixed up with the Fleischer sing-along short subjects of the 1920s and 1930s; his TV show merely showed the lyrics on-screen.

The Disney Sing-Along Songs tapes; for people who grew up around the time they were released, they are probably the example of this trope.Goldballs next appears in Spider-Man, where he is seen attending Brooklyn Visions Academy, where he becomes the classmate of Ganke Lee and Miles Morales, aka the second Spider-Man. [2] Wait Till Your Father Gets Home has a variation in its opening: While Irma sings the Title Drop, Harry is seen driving his car over a bumpy road formed by the words. Drill-X in Skylanders: Giants is a large drill robot ... who sings. Sort of. True to form, his singing is subtitled, with a miniature icon of the robot's face bouncing across to the beat. ( video )

Fabio Medina is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He previously went by the codename Goldballs, but has changed to Egg following changes in the X-Men during the " Dawn of X" relaunch. The character is depicted usually as a member of the X-Men or as a supporting character in stories featuring the Miles Morales version of Spider-Man.

Lampshaded on a musically themed episode of Muppet Babies (1984), where Bunsen's latest invention was the Bunsen Honeydew Self-Propelled Follow-the-Bouncing-Ball Ball. This allowed the otherwise musically inept Beaker to get in on the fun. ("Meep meep meep-meep-meep, meep meep-meep meep-meep...") Referenced by name in the Big and Rich song "Freak Parade". Of course, the song consisted almost entirely of the phrase "Somebody's got to be unafraid to lead the freak parade" repeated over and over again, faster and faster until the end of the song. The video for "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was (Not Was) puts the chorus lyrics on screen with a bouncing ball, but over a completely different (and instrumental) section of the song.

Averted in Silent Hill 3's joke ending. The ridiculously goofy lyrics to the "Silent Hill Song" are simply highlighted in red as they are sung, even though a SH-themed bouncy ball likely would have made it even funnier. Follow the bouncing ball" is a technique of directing singalongs in movie theaters (and later on home video) where the lyrics are displayed as onscreen subtitles while a ball bounces along each word or syllable of the lyrics, in sync with the actual beat and rhythm of the song. In the reprise of the refrain of Barnes & Barnes' Fish Heads, a bouncing fish head is used over the lyrics. There was a marathon of Spongebob Squarepants and The Fairly Oddparents episodes that featured at least one song, and they displayed the songs' lyrics, encouraging viewers to sing along. Though not really a straight example (it merely highlighted the words as they were sung), it fits this trope.WeimTime's Synthesia covers of other songs have little chibified heads of the characters who sing their respective parts bouncing on the words of their lines. For example, a tiny Garnet head is used as the bouncing ball for their cover of "Stronger Than You".
