The Mystery Singer: Not Exactly Peter Parker!

Enter Patrick Stump: From Rock Star to Kid-Friendly Crooner
The singer is none other than Patrick Stump, the lead singer of the super popular band Fall Out Boy! Yes, you read that right. The guy who belted out angsty pop-punk anthems like "Sugar, We're Goin Down" is also responsible for the relentlessly cheerful Spidey theme song.
I know, right? Mind blown. It's like finding out your favorite pizza chef is secretly a competitive ballroom dancer. It's unexpected, to say the least!
