- If you hear more dance music in Pitch Perfect 2, that’s intentional. “[The process] starts with what we call a listening party,” Banks says. “We just listening to things and talk more generally about sound, like the sound of Das Sound Machine, our new villain.
- The cast has no formal involvement in picking the songs. That doesn’t stop some actors from trying, however. “I sent many emails to the music team, which I know I have no business doing,” Kendrick says.
- “Wrecking Ball” was an instant favorite for the opening scene. “I knew that I wanted Rebel doing that silks routine before we ever chose the music,” Banks says.
- Kendrick wanted to sing a different song with Snoop Dogg during his cameo. “I was asking if I could sing something cooler than the song that I sang because it’s essentially a children’s song,” Kendrick says.

Pitch Perfect 3
In an attempt to mix up the formula from the first two Pitch Perfect movies, Pitch Perfect 3sees the Bellas reunite to entertain troops on a USO tour. However, for the first time, they aren't just being compared to other acapella groups. Evermoist, headed by Ruby Rose's Calamity, is a particularly tough act to follow with their earworm rock hit, "How A Heart Unbreaks." Beyond its catchy guitar riffs and Rose's smooth vocal delivery, the song works well by breaking many typical post-breakup so...
Pitch Perfect
While its cast of fantastic comedic actors boded well for Pitch Perfect before its release, few fans expected the "world-building" that it would do to establish acapella as a competitive event with its own in-world traditions. One such event was the riff-off, which saw different groups of singers jumping in and out of the active spotlight by connecting words from one song to words from another. The result was an endlessly catchy flow of multiple songs chained together by their lyrics that sho...
Pitch Perfect
In the first Pitch Perfectmovie, the Barden Bellas and the Treblemakers are down several members and need to recruit new singers. Instead of showing several individual tryouts, the movie instead uses a montage to stitch together an acapella version of Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone." Beyond generally sounding great, the song is notable for quickly showcasing several singers' personalities, styles, and strengths. From jaw-dropping voices to spot-on beatboxing, it's a fresh take on a great...
Pitch Perfect
The first Pitch Perfectmovie is centered around a national collegiate acapella competition, and none of the performances in the finale disappoint. While the Barden Bellas inevitably take home the trophy, the Treblemakers show why they deserve their clout as well. Starting with Skylar Astin and company's fantastic interpretation of "Bright Lights, Bigger City" and working its way into a Ben Platt-led "I've Got The Magic In Me," it gives several of the main Treblemakers time to shine and acts a...
Pitch Perfect 2
The Bellas are consistently shown to be a top-tier acapella group in the first Pitch Perfect movie, so the sequel had the challenge of coming up with a way to give them somewhere higher to go. The stakes were raised by bringing their competition international, but the opening of Pitch Perfect 2also showed some cracks in the group. The song is as catchy as anything else for the majority of the performance, but stage and choreography malfunctions at the end give the Bellas a big knock to their...
Pitch Perfect 2
The Jessie J number was seen to be a relatable anthem as it seemed to perfectly summarize the Barden Bellas' friendship. With most of the characters graduating, there was a lot of anxiety about what the future would hold for each character and their futures. However, as the lyrics attest, the Barden Bellas had nothing to worry about since the group would not let any member go through this new and scary path alone; they'd work it out together. The song is subtler in delivery and styling than m...
Pitch Perfect 2
This Fall Out Boy anthem did astonishingly well as an acapella production; for listeners who are familiar with the jarring guitar riffs of the original number, the breathy tonality of Das Sound Machine's performance came across as a novelty. They kept their set simple since there was quite a lot to improvise sonically, but the angst of the song is flawlessly projected. The original number is repeatable and heady, which made it such a perfect pick for a final setlist, especially because it was...
Pitch Perfect
This is one of the most popular Pitch Perfect songs on Spotify, and for good reason. It's an unusual composition, the original composition obviously has a longer orchestration than the one in the movie. The lyrics are about starting a new journey, and Anna Kendrick's original number explores the acapella element quite heavily. However, to make it more repeatable, sonic elements (like a light background piano) have been introduced, which helps the track maintain a consistent tenor outside of t...
Pitch Perfect 3
The single by the Joe Jonas led-supergroup DNCE is one of the most danceable songs to have been featured in the franchise. However, the Bellas perform an impromptu version of the song during a car ride, and the track's potential for a full-scale acapella production hasn't been explored in the movie. The song has a vibrant quality, it's lively, and has some great uptempo musical work, which is smooth and yet quite simple. Essentially, it can be covered in almost any cheerful setting.
Pitch Perfect
"Right Round" has room for versatility since it can work with all kinds of octaves; Flo Rida's 2009 remix of the Dead or Alive number was able to anchor the composition almost entirely on rap. Pitch Perfectchooses to cover Flo Rida's version, which makes sense because it's more modernized. The song also switches between tempos so it can make the most of the chorus hook. But what makes the song a valuable addition to the movie's soundtrack is that no one would expect this classic pop track-tur...
