  2. Apr 3, 2019 · It's the nursery rhyme nightmares are literally made of but what's the origin behind A Nightmare On Elm Street's Freddy Krueger nursery rhyme?

    One, Two, Freddy's Coming For You is an adaptation of the children's nursery rhyme, "One, Two, Buckle My Shoe".

    "One, Two, Buckle My Shoe" and "One, Two, Freddy's Coming For You" both have multiple versions.

    The later is used in various versions of A Nightmare on Elm Street.

    This song is often said to be Freddy Krueger's theme song.

    Despite being a parody, it is quite haunting and ominous and has a lasting impact on Freddy's victims.

    The most common version is:

    A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984 film)

    The first time, it is sung while three girls play jump rope, while a fourth girl watches. Apparently, none of the girls themselves are singing it. Apparently, this takes place in the physical world and apparently the girls are very much alive. Later, Nancy sings it in the bathtub. It is later sung while three girls play jump rope in what is apparently a dream that Nancy is having. Apparently, none of these girls themselves are singing it in this scene, either. It is then played at the beginning of the closing credits.

    A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy's Revenge (film)

    It is sung by Angela Walsh, while playing jump rope by herself, in a dream that Jesse Walsh is having. Angela is obviously very much still alive.

    A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (film)

    It is sung by a mixed group of boys and girls in front of 1428 Elm Street, in a dream that Kristen Parker is having. Three children play jump rope, while two more toss a ball back and forth to each other, while another rides a tricycle on the porch. It is strongly implied that the children jumping rope and tossing the ball are some of Freddy's pre-death victims, because the girl riding the tricycle pretty much straight out says she is in the next scene she appears in. Kristen later sings it while resisting sedation. Afterwards, Nancy comments that it is used to "keep the bogey-man away".

    A Nightmare on Elm Street (book adaptation of the 1984 film by Bob Italia)

    It is sung by a group of obviously alive children, while playing jump rope in the parking lot of Springwood High School. It is explicitly stated that this takes place in the physical world. Tina, Nancy, and Glen witness this. Later, it is sung by several girls in what is apparently a dream Nancy is having. It isn't stated how many girls there are.

    A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (book adaptation by Bob Italia)

    It is basically the same as the movie, both during Kristen's first dream and when she is resisting sedation.

    A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (book adaptation by Bob Italia)

    Its basically the same as in the film.

    Merit Blocker sings a variation of part of it: "One, Two, I'M coming for you...". This could be interpreted as Freddy singing it through Merit.

    Freddy himself sings it to Tim Blocker in an anesthesia-induced dream, right before murdering him.

    A group of children sing it, while playing jump rope, inside Badham Preschool in a dream.

  6. Jun 20, 2017 · Because I didn’t spend a ton of time paying attention to the score, I never really thought much about the music in the original 1984 Nightmare on Elm Street. Sure, there’s the 213 song in the credits, but that’s about it.
