Each of theSuicide Squadtrailers turn so far has been build around a familiar song ( or two ) , and the selected music has embrace a wide range of pop genre . Thevery first trailerfeatured a modern cover of The Bee Gees ' 1968 release " I Started a laugh , " remixed by ConfidentialMX with a vocal performance by Becky Hanson .

Aside from repeat reference of the discussion " team , " the Sung is more of a thematic co-occurrence toSuicide Squadthan a literal one , focusing on general themes of bear badly rather than name - dropping characters or key out setting from the movie . " Heathens " was like ; that song made mention of psychopaths , murderers and a freakshow , hit it a fitting part ofSuicide Squad ’s soundtrack , but it also works as a standalone track .
