The Backyardigans - Samurai Pie (ft. Leon Thomas III)

Episode: “Samurai Pie” (2x02)
Music genre: Spaghetti Western
Singer(s):
Leon Thomas III as Tyrone
Lyrics
Tyrone: Pie-ya... pie-ya! I make... pie like a samurai!
Pie-ya... pie-ya! Like a samurai... who makes pie!
Some bakers make pie while they're sitting in a chair...
but I tumble and crouch... and leap through the air!
Focus is important, patience a must.
Use the freshest fillings and the flakiest crust!
I practice my jumps, my turns and my kicks...
and I never forget to shout this when I mix...
Pie-ya... pie-ya! I make... pie like a samurai!
Pie-ya... pie-ya! Like a samurai... who makes pie!

this was Leon Thomas’ first solo on the show, also this episode was the second to last one where Reginald Davis Jr (Tyrone’s speaker in season 1) did Tyrone’s speaking voice, you can tell how old he was getting and why they chose to replace him just based on how he sounded at the start lol

[@agavesrealm]

tbh i think it really fits this role, but i get why they'd have to replace him.. it won't always fit perfectly like this!

[@sierrabent6718]

Yeah, his season 1 voice sounds so deep compared to his other voice from all the other seasons.

Speaking Voice: a teenager that had gone through puberty.
Singing Voice: a kid starting to go through puberty
Yep definitely not a perfect combo haha

[@kieratownsley2416]

agreed

[@crsproductions2003]

@@zaimproductions Ironically Tyrone's singing voice (Leon Thomas III) is older than Reginald Davis Jr. (Tyrone’s speaking voice)

[@zaimproductions]

Spaghetti western music and martial arts mixed together is an unusual combination, but it works perfectly! 😁👌

[@MichaelBlaneWalker]

But they set a Spaghetti western to raï, Algerian pop music.

Quentin Tarantino is obviously a student of the backyardigans.

You’re gonna need a bit more practice until you get the hang of the moves.

The utter betrayal I felt two minutes ago realizing that this song is not on Spotify... Three albums, and my favorite episode ever gets neglected 😭

[@ariannagorbet6674]

The type of music here sounds like a mix of 1960’s rock and jazz (mainly trumpet)

TYRONE: "I am the greatest pie-maker the world has ever known.
My secret? I make pie... like a samurai!"

The Nostalgia is going crazy right now. I remember vibing to this song when I was 4. I wish the backyardigans was still popular among kids. I’m so glad i grew up with this, instead of fucking skibidi toilet. God bless the creators 😢

[@senselesschiId]

No really, this is so much better then sephora and skibidi toilet,
the echo in the canyon song was my second favorite as a kid T-T
