“Orange Colored Sky”, by Nat King Cole

“Let The Waves Smash And The Lightning Crash”, by The Wolf And The Epitaph

Okay, “The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill” by The Beatles, because it mentions Captain Marvel (I don’t care what anyone says–he’ll always be the Captain to me).

And next up, for obvious reasons, “Shazam!” by Duane Eddy

This might be a bit on the nose, but all the same, its worthy of a highlight:

Title aside, this has nothing to do with Shazam himself, but its a fun piece:

“On the nose” can often just mean “it’s a great fit”! :slight_smile:

Speaking of…

Benjamin Wallfisch’s Shazam theme is every bit on par with Williams’ Superman, Elfman’s Batman and Zimmer’s Wonder Woman themes.

He didn’t score Fury, but he is scoring The Flash, so hopefully he’s got more movie music magic on the way.

When I was first reading DCeased: Unkillables, I involuntarily heard this song when Mary was introduced, and it’s been my Shazam-Fam theme song ever since:

Also… ■■■■, how did I miss Women’s History Month? Oh, right. Jamaica. I swear I’m not just finding reasons to mention I was in Jamaica, but I was and I missed International Women’s Day… Although to be fair, it was for my mom’s birthday, so at least we spent that time pampering a woman.

who was Captain Marvel hanging out with forty years ago?

I’m a tad confused. Is it okay to call him Captain Marvel anymore? I think he’s still occasionally referred to that in the comics. He was also in a 1941 serial Adventures of Captain Marvel starring Tom Tyler. And doesn’t Zachary Levi bear a resemblence to Tyler?

@patterson65.37405 is of course correct- here’s Billy B.'s 1940s serial:

Since we’re being so all on the nose … I’ll use this magical chestnut again.

Important historical side note: The Adventures of Captain Marvel was the first comic book adaptation to the big screen. (Because National Comics, now “DC”, declined to license Superman, so that script became Mysterious Doctor Satan and Fawcett licensed the honor.)

Oh, and here’s a fun second track, to make sure we’re talking about the movie and not just the character of Shazam…
