In yesterday’s Monday Mixtape, I made this random comment while talking about Will Smith’s “Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It”:
This makes me yearn for a simpler time when Will Smith was known for party jams, blockbuster movies, and party jams that re-told the plots of blockbuster movies. Do you know how awesome it would be if Will Smith decided to record a double album that went through the entire MCU song by song? It would be amazing for his career! There could be songs titled “Cool Like a Winter Soldier,” “Thwip Thwip (Spidey’s Coming),” and “Ragna-rock.” Let’s make this happen, Will.
My brain has this habit of latching on to ludicrous ideas and not letting go. As a result, I came up with song titles, an album title, and an album cover. I even wrote a few lines of one of the songs, but decided not to go that far down the rabbit hole. So I present to you The Willfinity Saga, a double album in which Will Smith party jams tell the story of the first three phases of the Marvel Cinematic Universe:
Disc 1 - Phases 1 & 2
1. Blastin’ Off (Iron Man)
2. Don’t Make Me Angry (The Incredible Hulk)
3. Smash, Bash, Whiplash (Iron Man 2)
4. Party Wit’ Da Thunder (Thor)
5. All Day (Captain America: The First Avenger)
6. Loki Loco (The Avengers)
7. Stark Raving Mad (Iron Man 3)
8. Drop the Hammer (Thor: The Dark World)
9. Cooler Than (A Winter Soldier) (Captain America: The Winter Soldier)
10. Groot Groove (Guardians of the Galaxy)
11. I, Robot (Avengers: Age of Ultron)
12. Ant No Man (Ant-Man)
Disc 2 - Phase 3
1. One Little Fight (Captain America: Civil War)
2. Right and Wong (Doctor Strange)
3. He Go Ego (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2)
4. Thwip, Thwip (Spidey’s Comin’) (Spider-Man: Homecoming)
-I envision this one as having a dance that everybody does to the chorus: Thwip, Thwip / Spidey’s comin’ / Let it rip, rip / Bad guys runnin’ / Let’s dip, dip / It’s homecoming / Your girl’s dad is ‘bout to start up somethin’ (It’s definitely for the best that I didn’t write more of these)
5. Ragna-Rock (Thor: Ragnarok)
6. The King Is Here (Black Panther)
7. Snap (The Inevitable) (Avengers: Infinity War)
8. Ain’t Afraid of No Ghost (Ant-Man and the Wasp)
9. Marvelous (Captain Marvel)
10. Move It Back (Time Heist) (Avengers: Endgame)
11. Scimmia Notturna (Night Monkey’s Comin’) (Spider-Man: Far From Home)
