A subtrope of Signature Song. While the article Signature Song is devoted to the most famous and recognizable songs by real life musicians, this article is devoted to the signature songs of specific individuals and fictional characters. As a Running Gag some characters tend to be singing or humming the same kind of song whenever they appear in view, on screen or within earshot. The song might not have been written by them personally, but they like singing it anyway. In this sense it becomes one of their characteristic trademarks. Sometimes other characters might get annoyed. Not to be confused with an actual Signature Song (the most well known song by a musician) or a Leitmotif (an introductory melody heard whenever a specific character appears). |

Grey's Anatomy Lexie Grey and "Breathe (2 AM)" by Anna Nalick. She sang this song in the season 7 episode "Song Beneath the Song" and it's been used in a promo of her showing up in Meredith's beach afterlife when Meredith gets COVID-19 in season 17. Similarly, the song "The Story" for Callie Torres. She sings this song as a solo in "Song Beneath the Song" to get herself to wake up after a car accident, and her cover of the song plays in the season 14 finale "All of Me", as Arizona is getting ready to move to New York with Sofia, where Callie moved to at the end of Season 12; the show also hints at them reconciling. |

The former plays a large role in the plot, with snippets of it being sung by her despite her aversion to singing and her using it to snap Isamu out of Sharon Apple's trance during the climactic fight. The latter is more used to highlight Sharon's alien nature as a virtuaroid. | |

Macross Delta has a few: Freyja Wion's Rune ga Pikatto Hikkatara. It's all but explicit that the song was written for her specifically, given it refers to a sparkling Rune (which she alone as a Windermerean possesses) and her catchphrases, and her Signature Scene flying with Hayate in his Siegfried has her singing it. Kaname Buccaneer's AXIA. In-Universe, it actually originates from Kaname's solo career before Walkure and comes up as one of her few successes from that career despite it being an Old Shame for her. It also plays an important role in the plot, with Messer using it to stave off Var Syndrome (and implicitly to listen to Kaname's voice). Mikumo Guynemer's Ikenai Borderline. She sings this initially during her Big Damn Heroes moment as part of Walkure, and Walkure later attempts to sing it again in episode 13 before the Fold Bomb detonates on Ragna, forcing them to evacuate. Walkure also has Bokura no Senjou collectively, with Freyja and Mikumo having their own versions of it and the entire group singing it during their battles more than any other song. |

Happy Feet: Every Emperor penguin has a "Heart Song" that they sing while searching for their mate. The only penguin that doesn't appear to have a song is Mumble who can't sing at all (though fans have speculated that his dance solo to "I Wish" by Stevie Wonder makes that his Heart Song). Mumble's parents have "Kiss" by Prince and "Heartbreak Hotel" by Elvis Presley as theirs and his love interest Gloria's song is "Boogie Wonderland" by Earth, Wind & Fire. | |

ER: Susan Lewis' favourite song is "Blackbird" by The Beatles, which becomes an important recurring motif throughout the storyline about her sister and niece in season 2. One episode is even titled after a line in the song, "Take These Broken Wings". | |

Pokémon: The Series: Most of these are from the "XY&Z TV Anime Character Song Project Collection" series of albums. Perhaps the most famous would be Jigglypuff's iconic song. The Team Rocket trio has "Team Rocket Forever", "Look Forward, Team Rocket!", "Team Rocket's Team Song", and "Double Trouble" in the dub. Meowth specifically has "Meowth's Song", "Meowth's Party", "Polka O Dolka", and "Meowth's Ballad". Brock has "Brock's Paradise" and "Two Perfect Girls" in the dub. May has "I Won't Lose!" and Dawn has "By Your Side". "Squishy's Song" for Bonnie and Squishy. "Brilliantly" for Clemont. Serena has "DreamDream". Even Pikachu has his own song, with the lyrics of course being in Pokémon Speak. Pretty much any of the openings in both the original and the dub count as Ash's song. Misty has two songs in the dub: "Misty's Song" and "Misty Most of All". So far, Tracey, Max, Goh, and Ash's friends from both Unova and Alola are the only main characters without character songs. |

Several 50's Tex Avery MGM Cartoons featured a Southern Wolf character (voiced by Daws Butler using a similar voice he would later use for Huckleberry Hound) who always whistled the Civil War-era folk hymn "Kingdom Coming (Year of Jubilo)". Because of this, fans have nicknamed him Jubilo Wolf. | |

The Muppets: Kermit's "It's Not Easy Being Green". The Swedish Chef is also seen and heard humming the same melody whenever he is cooking. Kermit's own nephew, Robin, is forever associated with his put-to-music version of the A. A. Milne poem "Half Way Down the Stairs". |

Data's brother Lore from Star Trek: The Next Generation is fond of singing "Abdul Abulbul Amir". The song almost doubles as his Tuneless Song of Madness, though he sings it quite well. | |
