"Mix and Mingle Machine" is a pop-spoken word song performed by various Danville residents in the episode "Cheer Up Candace". It is impromptly rendered to simulate the speed meeting induced by the Mix N' Mingler revolving around a downcast Candace.

Trivia[]
- Before "Danville for Niceness", this song was one of the songs with the most people singing in it. Besides Candace, there are a lot of other people in the Mix and Mingle Machine, and they all sing the chorus.
- Appearances from known characters in the machine: Mrs. Fletcher; Danny from Love Händel; a ba-dink-a-dink; Lacie, some background dancers from "S.I.M.P. (Squirrels In My Pants)"; the Pinhead Pierre actress; and the security guard from "It's About Time!". Note: In non-HD broadcasts of this episode, in order to catch these people, the viewer must pause exactly at the right moment as each line of four people whizzes on and off of the screen: there are really six people in the line, and pausing will reveal one of the hidden passengers. Usually, these will only be random people of no significance, but if careful and quick, the viewer can catch these three characters. Each one appears more than once, usually twice. In HD broadcasts, all six people appear with no pausing necessary.
- During the first chorus, Phineas and Ferb can be seen doing the walking dance from the song "Technology vs. Nature".
- The phrase "you'll never guess what's in my pocket" may be taken from The Hobbit, in which Bilbo asks Gollum what he has in his pocket.
- There are two people named Tom mentioned.
- The guy whose owns a pizzeria might be played by Vincent Martella, as a reference to his dad who does own a pizzeria. This could be true because in the credits of the two episodes it lists Vincent as an additional voice.
- The boy who raises rats is later seen when Dr. Diminutive shows the small TV in "Nerdy Dancin'".
- The man who says "I love to dance just like a pharaoh" sounds a lot like Richard O'Brien, the voice of Lawrence.
- The man who says "I like to shoot a bow and arrow" is the same voice of the man who says "I'm very small, I need a booster".
- Before entering the machine, Phineas says that people will change every two seconds. However, in the song, it changes in to "You've only got a second to make a good impression." It is likely that Phineas is either counting the time when the other person is changed, or the concept is being simplified.
- The old woman that appears on the Doonkelberry Cake Mix Box ("Raging Bully") is in the song.
- Disney+ subtitles mistake the line “I'm really dull, but you'll like Tom.”, writing it as “I'm really dull, but you like fun”.
