Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)

Gabe Saporta spoke about how the song came together in a 2006 interview with Entertainment Weekly: ==Composition==

Saporta began writing "Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)" when Pete Wentz and Jonathan Daniel of Crush Music approached him and thought that the song "would be perfect" for the soundtrack. They got in contact with the film's music supervisor and needed to change some parts to the song. However, Saporta wasn't on board with the idea at first, but eventually "knew it had to be done." For the version used in the music video, a line of Samuel L. Jackson saying "That's it! I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane!" was added at the beginning of the song. ==Critical reception==

Brian Schiller of Slant Magazine stated that the track, "will probably never be heard from again after Snakes on a Plane leaves theaters... 'Snakes on a Plane (Bring It)', should honestly be one of the worst songs of the year but isn't via its association to the film. If Snakes on a Plane is nearly as campy as it promises to be, then the song's already dated production fits too perfectly for the song to be in the wrong at all." ==Music video==

The video, directed by Lex Halaby, shows McCoy, Ivarsson, Saporta and Beckett walking through Honolulu International Airport, acting as if they were villains hired by Eddie Kim (the antagonist of Snakes on a Plane) sneaking snakes on board in their suitcase and guitar case. They are able to pass through security when Ivarsson distracts the airport worker by taking off her jacket. Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy makes a cameo appearance (at 1:46), talking on a payphone nervously as the band members pass ominously. Samuel L. Jackson (who plays Neville Flynn, the main protagonist of the movie) also makes a cameo appearance, lowering his shades and eyeing the band members as they pass, unaware of the true contents inside their cases before returning to his 100 Bullets comic. He is also seen wearing the unofficial Snakes on a Plane T-shirt designed by webcomic artist Jeffrey Rowland (with snakes flying a plane). The video ends with a sign for South Pacific Airlines Flight 121 as the band boards the plane, the same flight as in the film. The video was filmed at the Air Hollywood sound stage in San Fernando, California. ==Charts==
