Phineas and Ferb's "Busted": A Nostalgic Throwback and a Modern Twist The popular animated series Phineas and Ferb entertained millions with its catchy tunes. One such song, "Busted," has recently gained renewed attention. A video comparing the original 2011 cartoon version with a live performance by the original voice actors, Olivia Olson and Ashley Tisdale, in 2025, has surfaced online. The video cleverly juxtaposes the animated visuals with footage from the live performance, highlighting the evolution of the song's presentation. While the lyrics remain the same, the energy and delivery differ significantly. The original cartoon version is lighthearted and playful, while the live performance showcases the voice actors' vocal maturity and stage presence. "It's amazing to see how the song has evolved," says a fan commenting on the video. "The live version captures the same spirit but with a more powerful and mature sound." This comparison underscores the enduring appeal of Phineas and Ferb and its music. The video's popularity reflects the nostalgia and interest in seeing the voice actors perform the song live after so many years.
