  • The theme song of the show puts Molly's enthusiasm and happiness against Scratch's grumpiness and annoyance. It carries a super upbeat tune, while also throwing in chords that you would expect from a ghost-themed show, which fits both Molly and Scratch well.
  • Andrea's catchy theme song takeover is solely about herself being amazing. Scratch and Molly's mixed reactions during the song only make it better.
  • As soon as Molly meets Scratch she starts singing that they will be Together Forever while taking over what was once his room. He is horrified.
  • In "The Talent Show", Molly's attempts to stop Libby from performing are backed by "Obstruction", a fantastic rap song that wouldn't feel out of place on a Beastie Boys-esque album thanks to the show's style of comedy being a surprisingly perfect match to the type of jokes that group had in their music.
  • "One Best Friend" is a classic rock parody of Europe's "The Final Countdown" that shows Libby and Scratch, "Fighting for a BFF / In an epic battle to the death."
  • Molly is determined to have fun outside on a "Snow Day" while her family, Scratch and Libby stay inside the warm house. She keeps telling herself that she has lots of fun while suffering nothing but misfortune, starting to freeze to death and slowly losing her mind. It is a happy Sanity Slippage Song.
  • "Enhappify", where Molly sings about making the world a better place while trying to stay positive despite being terrorized by skunks.
  • The ruthless Jinx has her own Villain Song, "Killjoy", where she is looking for a source of joy (which happens to be Molly) while ignoring Scratch's desperate attempts to distract her. The song would fit right into a James Bond movie.
  • In Enjoy Your Afterlife, Scratch has a song with the former members of the Ghost Council, who are looking for a new purpose in life and get advice from him. It is the first time we see them actually enjoying themselves and having fun.
  • "I Just Want To Eat Bread" is a catchy parody of "Exceptional Zed" from Z-O-M-B-I-E-S (2018) in which Scratch makes clear his love of bread. Though Molly joins him and tries to distract him with other food, Scratch wins her over and soon they sing a silly but very memorable duet about bread.
  • "Dance with Me" is a very catchy song with both Scratch and Pete using the power of dance to influence others to do work.
  • "This is Brighton's Year" is an epic Crowd Song with tons of choreography and vocals, with the whole town of Brighton dancing and singing along with it.
  • Both of Kenny Star's songs in "Kenny's Falling Star", reflective of his successful journey to rediscover his country roots.
  • Jinx's Villain Song "Back to Misery" when she steals Scratch's Chairman robes and uses their powers to return the Ghost World back to the way things were at the start of the series, showing just how dangerous she is.
  • Scratch's song "Maybe Next Time" once he regains his memories as a wraith for the human Todd before his death, and how he never took any risks, saying he was so afraid of dying that he never really lived until his spirit passed. Tear Jerker doesn't even begin to describe it.
