History Recap / PhineasAndFerbFlopStarz

* SubvertedCatchphrase: "By the way, aren't you a little young to be pop stars?" ({{Beat}}) "No."

* BassoProfundo: Ferb's solo in "Gitchee Gitchee Goo", which sounds very unlike his normal speaking voice, continuing a gag seen in "[[Recap/PhineasAndFerbLawnGnomeBeachPartyOfTerror Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror]]".
-->'''Ferb''': Bay-buh, bay-buh, bay-buh, bay-buh...

** Linda's stage name, Lindana, takes after Music/{{Madonna}}. Her outfit also features a belt with the word "Toy", a reference to a belt worn by Madonna in the 1980s that read "Boy Toy".

* SillyLoveSongs: "Gitchie Gitchie Goo" takes the trope name literally, featuring comedically cheesy lyrics about a romantic partner.

* CallBack: Linda says her song was reduced to elevator music; if you listen closely in the previous episode, you can hear it playing when Candace plays the elevator.

* CostumeTestMontage: Candace as she goes through several decisions over what to wear to the audition, only to end up back in her regular outfit.

* SuddenDownerEnding: After Candace sings onstage at the reunion concert, the band announces their immediate retirement and [[HeroicBSOD she just stands there even as the mall closes]].

* ArtisticLicenseMusic: Generally the premise of a "one-hit wonder" that Linda describes. Most one-hit wonders attempt to establish multi-album careers (to varying degrees of success), instead of just making one song and becoming famous for just a few minutes. Phineas and Ferb manage to pull this off in ''one straight day''. Probably [[JustifiedTrope justified]], as her description is based solely on her own experience of being one.

* TantrumThrowing: A very minor one does by Phineas, as he pretends to throw a "diva tantrum" at Ben Baxter so PFT can resort to one-hit wonders.
* TheTelevisionTalksBack: Happens with Candace.

* BandEpisode: The episode is about the titular brothers making a band called "Phineas and the Ferb-Tones" just because the idea of going through the life cycle of a one-hit wonder sounded fun. It's noted for the catchy song "Gitchy Gitchy Goo".

* FanService: Lindana, Linda as an [[TheEighties '80s]] singer with an in-universe OneHitWonder definitely counts with her outfit. Candace is even seen [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/phineasandferb/images/f/f9/Candace_as_Lindana.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120110181512 wearing her mom's singing clothes]] at one point when she looked in her closet.

* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: Phineas says he's not too young to be a pop star; this is actually true in real life.

* SuddenDownerEnding: After Candace sings onstage at the reunion concert, the band announces their immediate retirement and she's disappointed.

Having heard the phrase "One Hit Wonder", WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb ask their mom what it means. She tells them that it's someone who comes to the top of the charts with a catchy, meaningless song, is famous for five minutes, before fading into obscurity, the song only ever used again as elevator music…[[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial not that she'd know anything about that.]] The boys decide that this sounds like great fun, and recruit the Fireside Girls to create the band “Phineas and the Ferb-Tones”.

Candace, meanwhile, is lining up to audition for a famous talent-scouting show. Her crush Jeremy says that the 100th person in line gets to sing with a new hit band! Imagine her dismay, then, when it turns out her brothers are that band, now famous for their meaningless song "Gitchee Gitchee Goo"? Can she choose between telling her mom and just having a good time?

* ArtisticLicenseLinguistics: In the credits, Lindana's song is apparently translated into several languages, including Aborigines. In actuality, Aborigines is a highly diverse language group encompassing the entire Australian continent. This is likely due to RuleOfFunny.
** Canadian is also listed as a language.
* ArtisticLicenseMusic: Generally the premise of a "one-hit wonder" that Linda describes. Most one-hit wonders make more than one song, instead of just making one song and becoming famous for just a few minutes. Phineas and Ferb manage to pull this off in ''one straight day''. Probably [[JustifiedTrope justified]], as her description is based solely on her own experience of being one.

* ShoutOut: Lindana's outfit features a belt with the word "Toy", a reference to a belt worn by Music/{{Madonna}} in the 1980s that read "Boy Toy".

* TruthInTelevision: When Phineas is asked, "Aren't you too young to be pop stars?", his reply is simply, "No...". He's actually right, as there are [[Music/MichaelJackson many]] [[Music/BritneySpears child]] [[Music/MileyCyrus pop]] [[Music/JustinBieber stars]] in real life.

* WordSaladLyrics: "Gitchee Gitchee Goo", which is done on purpose InUniverse.

* TruthInTelevision: When Phineas is asked, "Aren't you too young to be pop stars?", his reply is simply, "No...". He's actually right, as there are many child pop stars in real life.

* TheUnreveal: It's unknown who the "baby" in "Gitchee Gitchee Goo" is.

* BaitAndSwitch: At first it seems Doof's robot is going to smash the building with the PFT poster before Candace brings Linda out, but it gets piloted away. THEN it was revealed the poster was put up for free because the building was scheduled for demolition, and the building explodes before Candace and Linda come out.
