The 'somebody once told me' intro from All Star by Smash Mouth, iconic from the Shrek opening and used in memes for reveals and ironic entrances.

This clip captures the instantly recognizable opening of All Star, starting with the line somebody once told me sung in a laid-back, slightly nasal pop-rock vocal. A bright guitar strum and steady beat kick in underneath, giving it an upbeat, early 2000s feel that most listeners associate immediately with Shrek bursting out of his outhouse. The short excerpt works because it is both nostalgic and knowingly cheesy, triggering a smile before anything else happens. Creators use that instant recognition to set up a joke, a throwback, or a character making an entrance.

All Star was released by American rock band Smash Mouth in 1999, but its lasting fame came after it opened DreamWorks' Shrek in 2001, playing over the ogre's introduction. The pairing turned the song's first line into shorthand for the film itself. In the 2010s the intro was revived online in remixes, mashups and ironic edits, often stretched, distorted or inserted into unrelated scenes. Its continued use relies on shared nostalgia, as even listeners who have not seen the film recognize the cue instantly.

Kullanım için Profesyonel İpucu

✦ AI

Place the clip right at a door opening, curtain reveal or character walk-in so the first guitar hit lands with the visual entrance. Keep the original vocal upfront, do not bury it under dialogue, and cut before the verse continues for a clean punchline.
