Episode Information

"All Singing, All Dancing" is the 10th episode of The Simpsons' ninth season. This episode is the third Christmas-related story in the series' history.
Plot
Homer rents the family the movie Paint Your Wagon. He and Bart expect to see a violent Western starring Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood and someone who appears to be Lee Van Cleef; the truth is, it is a musical. This causes Homer to dispose the tape and condemn singing, but Marge says that Homer often sings.
Ultimately, this allows clips of the following songs from these episodes to be shown:
- "Baby on Board" from "Homer's Barbershop Quartet";
- "We Put the Spring in Springfield" from "Bart After Dark";
- "Springfield, Springfield" from "Boy-Scoutz N the Hood";
- "Who Needs the Kwik-E-Mart?" from "Homer and Apu";
- Krusty's version of "Send In the Clowns" from "Krusty Gets Kancelled";
- "See My Vest" from "Two Dozen and One Greyhounds";
- "The Monorail Song" from "Marge vs. the Monorail";
- "In the Garden of Eden" (really In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly) from "Bart Sells His Soul";
- "We Do" from "Homer the Great".
The family's singing motivates Snake Jailbird to come in; he is bothered by the Simpsons' singing and constantly tries to kill them, ironically doing his own singing. During the credits, Snake's voice can be heard trying to prevent the theme music from playing in the background, having grown annoyed of music over the course of the episode.
