Shocking Revelation: SpongeBob Celebrity Guest Opens Up About Regrettable Appearance on Show!

Summary

Pink regrets recording the SpongeBob song "We've Got Scurvy," calling it a "real mistake."

"We've Got Scurvy" became a popular success during the first ten years of SpongeBob SquarePants. It was even included in the compilation album SpongeBob's Greatest Hits. Despite Pink's remorse, "We've Got Scurvy" remains one of the show's most inventive and unpredictable musical pieces, alongside other renowned songs such as "This Grill Is Not a Home" and "Ripped Pants."

Pink, a celebrity guest star on SpongeBob SquarePants, has expressed regret over recording an iconic SpongeBob song. In season 6, episode 23, titled "Truth or Square," Pink appears as a pirate. This special episode commemorates the 10th anniversary of the beloved animated series, and is hosted by live-action pirate Patchy the Pirate. As the show approaches its 25th anniversary, fans can look forward to the upcoming release of SpongeBob SquarePants season 15 in 2024.

During an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Pink revealed that she considers the song "We've Got Scurvy," which she recorded for the episode, as one of the worst songs she has ever recorded. She considers it a "real mistake." Here is the full quote from Pink:

“Oh wait, I did put out that ‘SpongeBob’ thing — ‘We’ve Got Scurvy.’ I wish I never did that. That was a real mistake.”

What Are SpongeBob’s Best Musical Numbers?

Dressed in pirate attire, Pink takes charge of a group of pirates as they enthusiastically perform the catchy tune "We've Got Scurvy." Lasting just one minute, the lively song cleverly incorporates lyrics that humorously mention the symptoms and causes of the notorious pirate illness. Lines such as "We've got peculiar spots on our backs / So go ahead and holler," and "We're afflicted with scurvy, longing for Vitamin C / We desperately need a lemon tree," are complemented by simple, homemade props, including oranges suspended from above by strings, resulting in an uproariously amusing short musical piece reminiscent of the beloved show SpongeBob SquarePants.

“We’ve Got Scurvy” was a standout hit from the first decade of SpongeBob SquarePants and was featured on the popular compilation album, SpongeBob’s Greatest Hits. Alongside this track, the album includes other beloved SpongeBob songs such as the well-known “F.U.N. Song," the catchy "Campfire Song Song," and the show’s catchy shanty-inspired theme song. Although not every episode of SpongeBob includes a musical number, both the series and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie and its sequels are filled with memorable songs.

Among these songs, there are numerous hits that could be considered the greatest SpongeBob SquarePants song. One that stands out is the melodramatic duet between Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob, titled “This Grill Is Not a Home," from Season 2, Episode 34, titled "Welcome to the Chum Bucket." In this episode, SpongeBob is lured by Plankton to work at the Chum Bucket. Additionally, there are other catchy songs like “Now That We’re Men” from The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie and “Ripped Pants” from the Season 1 episode of the same name. Lastly, despite any regret Pink may have, “We’ve Got Scurvy” remains one of the show's most clever and memorable musical numbers, showcasing the show's unique and unhinged style.
